Facebook Ads Help! How can I redirect facebook users directly to my offer page?

xaxistech · 03-01-2011, 02:52 PM

Ok, I right now have one ad on facebook. It hasn't converted well... I think the problem is that well my signup page isn't that long, the process of getting to that page is. So I tried to make a ad that linked directly to my offer link, and suprise, disapproved...

So how can I make the ad on facebook link directly to my CPA offer link. And please don't say make a list. My offer is paying out $25 per one page submit, with only 5 text boxes and no really personal information. So I want to try and link directly to my offer. Well, how?

Have you ever though about sending PPV traffic to the same offer? If it's a 1 page lead gen, has a short landing page and only requires 5 fields and isn't requesting personal or banking information...PPV is a good way to get consumers looking where you want them to without going through a long and detailed process like consumers may be experiencing when you're live on FB.

I have, the problem is CPV sites require a deposit of like 100 dollars. So far I used 150 in advert credits, got 4 conversions, and that 100 depositing into my CPV account may make or break me. I know I can get more, the only problem is risk, is there any cpv site with low deposit amounts?

Hey xax

Easiest way would be to put a redirect script in. Point your FB ad to the redirect script, while the ad is being approved point to your original lander that got approved. Once the new ad is approved, change the URL in the redirect sript to point direct to the offer.

Here's something really simple that would do it:

PHP Code:

  <?php
// Simply change where the $myURL points after ad approval
$myURL = 'http://www.adomain.com/offer1.html';
header('location: ' .$myURL);
 
die();
?>

You don't put the code in Wordpress mate, it's a stand-alone file. Simply copy that code into a text editor (notepad will do, not Word) and save the file as something like "myFaceBookAd.php" and upload to your server.

Then, point your Facebook ad to "yourserver.com/myFaceBookAd.php" and just change where it ultimately ends up by changing the $myURL variable. So the redirect would look like:

Facebook Click -> myFaceBookAd.php -> Whatever URL You Want To Land On

Cheers

Your problem is you only have 1 Facebook ad. You need to create about 50-300 ads and test different variables. Test at least 10 different pictures, 2 headlines, 2 ad-copies.

Were you direct linking straight to a network link, or did you do a redirect through your own domain?

I've built a javascript that let's you add the like button to any page, if the like button get's click a new page it opened with the document or download the user liked you to get.

If facebook approves your landing page and then you go and change the website to redirect with the php script. Then facebook finds out you did this. Will they ban you?

Biowza · 03-31-2011, 06:31 AM

I was wondering that too, I can't imagine them being too happy...

imback · 03-31-2011, 07:01 AM

In facebook you can direct link most of the times. The only time you would really need an redirect is if you were testing domain names.

machej · 04-01-2011, 02:13 AM

A lot of people do this. Just be careful they don't find it.
