The factors utilized adoption model which has been developed in previous research by inserting Opportunity and Ability factors as a moderating effect between the influence of intention to use facebook ads toward the adoption of facebook ads. The background of this study was the need for the demand for the use of information technology, especially social networking in SME communication with consumers.
