Facebook vs YouTube OVC in Bangladesh: Which Performs Best in 2026?
When planning an Online Video Commercial (OVC) campaign in Bangladesh, brands often face a key question: Should you invest more in Facebook OVC or YouTube OVC?
Both platforms are effective, but they work in different ways. If you choose the wrong platform or use the same creative for both, you may waste your media budget and get poor results.
This guide explains how Facebook and YouTube OVCs compare in performance, creative strategy, cost, and when to use each platform in Bangladesh’s 2026 digital landscape.
