Blocked from adding friends on Facebook?

12 replies
Hey Guys,
I am a newbie with no experience on how to promote affiliate offers. I decided to start with facebook by reading around and getting different tips , so I tried to add friends using an automated software.
The problem I ran into is that I was getting blocked from adding friends after 5-10 friend request in a row. and I have now been blocked from adding friends at all for 2 days.
Is there any way around getting blocked for adding too many friends at a time, or any advice someone could give to help me through my learning experience?
I would really appreciate it.
Thanks!

  • Well, it just happens if you add friends too quickly. Facebook started restricting that behavior over a year ago already though back then you'd be banned after around 25-50 friend requests in a row, today it's probably at 5-10.

    And just a follow up to that post...

    You should always be thinking laterally. Never think "I'll make one big giant facebook account or twitter account"

    Diversity is the only free lunch.

    When you do your social media marketing attack you should plan on a minimum of 12 fb and twitter accounts EACH ONE pointing to a different url (website/blog/fb fan page etc...) that way you can step back and analyze what works and what doesn't...then after 30 days or so you can pair down what doesn't work and step up the winning strategy.

    Each social media account should be targeting a different market and within a few weeks you should know exactly whom you are targeting and what landing page works best

    Don't use automated software. 600 million + members, you think they aren't on to this type of activity?

    To be honest with you, I just bought the FB autocash product that came out at the beginning of this month and it says to add upwards of 50 friends a day across several different facebook accounts geared toward different niches.
    should I be buying into these product offer marketing strategies, or are there better resources out there to learn from?
    thanks a lot for all the previous responses as well.

      Yes, it works if you add them with different facebook accounts. The more accounts, the more people you can add total without being banned. So if you restrict yourself to adding 5 people a day/account, you can figure out yourself how many account you need to add xxx people per day. Goes without saying that this can be a big pain without any automation.

        Ok, thanks fro the reply. one last question, I assumed in the product when it said to add people under multiple different accounts that each account was geared toward a different niche. however are you saying I should start with 100 different accounts all geared toward the same niche, so that I may essentially add 500 friends a day given that each account allows me to make 5 friend request a day before being blocked?

      What does this have to do with anything? If you can't get your traffic right, it doesn't matter which network you choose. This thread is about adding friends on facebook, not "what is the best affiliate network". And EWA is certainly not the best (though they are cool guys).

    Why are you PAYING for something which you can obviously do for free. If you look around, you will be able to find a free method which allows you to add 100s of people a day without getting banned.

    I just sent invites to 500 people today, without getting banned and hopefully won't get banned.

    Try creating a .csv file than importing through the file. You will need a email list, which you can find somewhere if you search on google.

    Before you BUY, search as much as you can and then resort to buying as a last measure.
