Facebook Ads Won't Start

I just started a new community page and created 3 PPE campaigns. They have all been approved and are active.

Each campaign is targeting around 20,000 people AND I have bid ABOVE the suggested bid range. I set the campaign to run for 24 hours.

None of the campaigns have started working even though they say active. What's the problem?

Thank You

    how much more did you over bid? I find to get things start you have to bid a few pennies over their max suggested top bid

    eg: they say bid between 0.19 - 0.25 cents I'll bid like 0.33 cents to start with not say 0.26 cents

    Your target group sounds very small too I usually try and keep it between 750,000-1.5 mill to start with

      I just changed my audience to 1 million. I overbid by a few dollars.

      Still won't start.

    If you just changed it - give it an hour and come back to it

    I usually set up a new campaign - over bid like I said above then come back to it the next morning to start seeing which ads are converting and which i need to pause

      Its been 8 hours and the ads haven't budged. Starting to think something is wrong with my actual page and not the ads?

    Try this: Facebook Image Text Check

    In the past if your ad image had more than 20% text then they were rejecting ads.

    Now they have change ad rules and if your image text is above 20% they will approve your ad but if it's too high then your ad may not run!

    So upload your ad image and see your image text rating! -> Facebook Image Text Check

    Hope this helps!
