Has Facebook ad approval process gotten better?

by ej2
9 replies
Over the last two months my ad approval rates are a lot better then they have been in the past. I'm talking 9 out of 10 ads are getting the approved. Before I was lucky to get 4 out of 10. I even got some old ads that were disapprove up and running. Could it be the not so great stock numbers that causes the shift?
whatever it is I'm glad.

    That sounds like they're getting worse, not better. If 6/10 of the ads you submit violate their advertising terms, I would hope they banned you, not started approving more of them. I don't want scammy/spammy/illegal junk in my sidebar as a user, nor do I want to compete with junk as an advertiser.

        I don't see how that helps. Previously they recognized 6/10 of his ads didn't belong on Facebook. Now they're letting more of these ads through, including ones previously rejected. That directly supposes a decline in review QA, not an improvement. More bad stuff is getting onto Facebook and he's causing it. That is a point, and one which does not accord politeness in its delivery -- this isn't a black hat forum.

Unless you believe there was no reason most of his ads were being rejected, this means Facebook is letting more scams/spam/junk into its network that it shouldn't be.
          just because an ad is rejected doesn't mean it is spam,junk, or anything like that. Most of the ads I run promote local business.

          Have you ever advertised on Facebook before?

            Why are more than half your ads getting rejected then? What's the reason they give?

            Yes, continuously, for over a year, both directly on Facebook and indirectly through FBX. I've never had an ad rejected. Why do you ask?

              If you never had an ad rejected I need you to help me out. Even fortune 500 companies have had there ads rejected for no real reason. Everyone knows that FB interns can be butt holes sometimes. I had ads disapproved at 3 pm resubmitted at 3 am that were approved and it was the same ad.

          I agree. I am so tired seeing the junk ads on my facebook sidebar. The biggest a hole is who ever keeps promoting "make $35 per hour" or "amazon looking to employ new staff - $400 per day". What a load of garbage. All they offer is a basic Amazon affiliate page that you can get yourself for free directly from Amazon and then they charge $40 a month for it.

          People are going to get tired of these scams and it will ruin it for people with great legitimate offers in the IM industry.

    Well, facebook is definitely getting desperate nowadays. We can even promote our newly updated status with a few bucks, yes.. status. Can you believe that?

    And now they try to approve 9/10 advertisement ... what a joke.
    I definitely won't let my ads compete with junk ads.
