Facebook Ads - Any Reason For Disapproval

by the_icon
11 replies
Had a few ads turned by FB recently and dont know why. I have advertised a few CB items and they go through ok but when I try to put in a BlamAds or MB ad, it returns it.

Any ideas? And before you ask they are not ads that would infring on their rules like gambling and things like that.

    Sorry to say but read through their terms and conditions very carefully. You will find the answer in there guaranteed - regardless of what you may think.

    Are these make money type products? If so, then that is why they have been banned.

    Just checked the link from the BlamAds ad and it doesnt go anywhere?

    This is my first time using them rather than MB but I would have the thought the "tracking link" when you click an offer you want to promote would be the link you want to send your people to? When I copy and paste it in, it doesnt do anything? I understand the offer isnt in my area but normally it would redirect to a different page.

    Any ideas?

    Oh well that goes without saying, you should always test your links first. And if these are just cpa or affiliate offers then I wouldn't be direct linking to them anyway. Facebook don't like that stuff. You are better off using a sandwich page in between.

    Will, its quite obvious you don't do Facebook advertising and do not know what you are talking about.

    At the OP,

    there are a tone of affiliates whether Click-bank or CPA, who have the same problems, it is not just you. I have had campaigns disapproved multiple times after being resubmitted and received a different reason for disapproval each time.

    They even told me once that a CPA offer I was trying to promote was not allowed according to their ToS even though every time I view my profile that same offer is being promoted in all the ad spots on the right sidebar.

    And like adwords, when you contact support they send you an unhelpfull canned response telling you to read the advertising guidelines.

    lmao, that's Facebook ads for you!

      I was talking about this Advertising Guideline:

      Prohibited Content
      "Get rich quick and other money making opportunities that offer compensation for little or no investment, including "work from home" opportunities positioned as alternatives to part-time or full-time employment or promises of monetary gain with no strings attached;"

      I don't advertise any mmo products on facebook so don't know how strict they are with that guideline.

        Thankyou for proving my point.

        I'm interested to know what gives you the impression that because the OP was promoting Click-bank products that he was promoting IM product?

        A lot of people direct link on Facebook without a problem, once again mate, think before you post.

        It is also against forum rules to call people names.

    Check your links first before posting to facebook, though they are not liable with any error occur on the process.

    Cheers for the responses and didnt want to start a fight lol.

    I dont do mmo ads coz as far as I know they are not allowed. The ads I had were country specific and for 2 different products, coffee and muscle building.

    Both disapproved for the same canned reason. Re direct linking, I have done around 10 ads recently, all direct linking to CB products and no problem there. The only problem comes in when I try to direct link to a CPA offer that is country specific.

    Have resubmitted the ads after double checking the link and will see what happens. I have pm'd Andre at BlamAds to find out about their target links because that is what was dead.
