Help with Facebook ad approval, it's getting ridiculous.

James Harrison · 07-26-2011, 04:36 PM

Ok so here is the deal,

I've been posting ads on Facebook and a few were approved and went well... but now that I am creating more ads, I can't get one approved to save my life. What is ridiculous is that I have ads up and running that are pointing to the EXACT same URL as the ones being denied. Their reason for disapproval: the URL the ad points to is against the TOS.

I am clueless and very frustrated. My landing page is simply a picture that relates to the offer that says click here, and a written out call to action, that is all. Help me out.

Thanks

James H

Hello James,
That don't tell much why your LP or ad got rejected. What that site about?
Its hard to get a dating sites and freebies promoted on FB this days.
If you are collecting information such as emails/zip try to add privacy policy to your website if you don't have one set.

Dating? Ladies dressed too scantily?

Need more details.

They do that kind of stuff. They enjoy torturing you because you're an affiliate, it's their normal business practice. Your ads will get approved based on the intern who is reviewing it and how they are feeling that day.

Facebook is tricky. I just started an ad campaign for my new site in the signature. I'm up to a dollar per click (ugh) and still no clicks.....

It is difficult.

That is an easy one, just buy a domain, point to that new domain and do a redirect to the offer

Chris, I am with PeerFly and facebook does not allow direct linking to Peerfly offers, but will a redirect work?

And it's a six flags offer, not an adult offer.

You shouldn't have any problems if you are sending visitors to a landing page. Most CPAs don't allow direct linking.
