Default Facebook Ad disapproved again

Hi guys,

I am a newbie in CPA.

Got into my first CPA network recently and trying to use fb ads to generate lead for my cpa offer.
I used direct link for Facebook but is being disapproved many times.

Not sure whether is because i am from Singapore and the offer is only for US.

Hope fellow warriors can help me.


Below is the comment

Reason(s) for advert disapproval:
The destination URL of this ad violates Facebook's Advertising Guidelines or could not be reviewed. Please check the URL you have submitted to ensure that it is free of any spelling errors and that it complies with our Advertising Guidelines. Please note that all sites must be viewable and that they are functioning properly, regardless of the viewer's location. Additionally, sites are prohibited from linking to proprietary file types (.pdf, .doc, etc,) initiating automatic downloads, or trapping a user's browser in any way (e.g., pop-ups of any kind).

Facebook gives the same canned response for 98% of disapprovals, you'd need to show the offer URL for me to tell you what the problem more than likely is, but more often then not it doesn't meet facebooks quality standards.

Talk to your AM about what offers are facebook compliant.

i got canned with a direct URL from my CPA network: www.CPAnetwork.com/x/0/1234/215879/
This is example of the URL i used. This is an offer specific to US only, and maybe the person who disapproved the ad was not from US. So what would be the best time to submit US based CPA offers?

Friend, you are simply doing it the wrong way. Facebook will never ever approve a campaign with that URL. You can't link your offer directly to facebook ad. Instead this is what you should do:

(1) Build a landing page based on your cpa offer

(2) Go to ezine article and copy one or two articles related to it and past it on your landing page

(3) Upload it into a domain and link it up with a url forwarding service like tk.com.

(4) Submit it to Facebook. I am 99% sure that it will be approved.

(5) When it is approved, go to the url forwarding service and change the domain to the cpa offer. Then, you can enjoy visits to your cpa offer because Facebook will not check your domain once your ad is approved.

I hope that this is simple enough!

That's definitely not true.

Facebook approves plenty of direct linked offers. I'm not saying that building a landing page is a bad idea - because it's a great idea but don't spread the false information that Facebook does not allow direct linking to affiliate offers.

They may disapprove a lot of ads, and they are fairly inconsistent in their approvals process but they do allow it.

Yes they do. I just got few ads approved with direct linking. So they do accept direct linking to CPA offers.

I am a specialist in Facebook and I will tell you they disapprove 90% of direct links. They are also cracking down on this. Simply apply a nice landing page and add in a optin to collect emails

But by all means they do allow direct links it just may be harder to get approved! Good Luck

It's better to just get your own domain and build a nice squeeze page. It looks much more professional, will get you more signups and help you to build your list to broadcast offers to again later amigo! Don't let those precious emails EVER get away ;-)

I use a lander page which is basically a redirect script and been direct linking without any issues, however it is a redirect from my domain. So it's not a DIRECT affiliate link in itself.

Carlos I also do the same. It really depends on the offer I am promoting and whether it is long term....If I suspect I have a winner then I make a whole landing page with opt-in to college emails Facebook is great

What about directing response to a Facebook URL in my ad? Is there any problem getting this approved?

I want to send people to my Facebook Group.

Oops. I forgot my signature. Catch you next time.

I think he means the link he puts into FB takes the clicker to a page that looks normal but then redirects to say peerfly.com/xxxxx

So the link goes to say mysitename.com/offer and when the user clicks it it then goes to peerfly.com/xxxxxx

According to FB TOS if you direct the user to a page where they have to enter personal details then they will reject the ad.

Yes you can put peerfly.com/xxxxxx though the chances are it will be rejected through their geo targetting flaw. If you direct link to your offer that is for US/CA then if someone from FB situated in Europe reviews it then they will get a different landing page, then your ad will be rejected for wrong landing page connected to ad.

On checking up on this on FB Help Centre I couldnt see the part that says about my personal information statement above, though I defo read it there a few weeks back. Dont know if they have changed that now or not but it was defo there.

For example an ad I had been testing for Febreeze samples was rejected through direct linking, however when I changed the url to mysitename.com/febreeze_offer it was accepted.

There is nothing wrong with sending to a group or fanpage I think, you just cant send them to a personal profile.

Probably. Everyone I have had rejected has always been targetted to the US but then again I am in the UK and may be getting a UK reviewer?

Safest option would be to create a free blogger blog and build it around the offer so the user is getting a bit of info rather than just a fat banner saying click here.
