FB Ad Clone, Someone?

Hey fellow warriors,

I figured maybe there will be someone out there who is a member of FB Ad clone (or not) who can help me with this.

In the training we were recommended to start out by cloning the campaign for FB Ad Clone itself, and use hypertracker to link to a landing page that could be a simple blog post about the product/service, and then after the ads are approved switch the destination link within hypertracker to the offer page, without editing anything in facebook because that of course would restart the approval process and we don't want that.

I did that, only I didn't want to pay monthly fees for hypertracker and I thought I'd use my own tracker. I have one called Affiliate Link Builder for cloaking and redirecting, installed on one of my own domains. So to start with I put a simple blog post about FBAC and used my own domain to cloak the aff link. I made a bunch of ads, all targeting well-known affiliate marketers. These ads got dissapproved.

Next, I used a little software I got as a bonus recently called Stealthsensei. In short, this software generates a blank WP post for the affiliate product and iframes the destination page. So I redirected to my blog post again but this time using stealthsensei. The landing page link was http://mydomain/facebook-ad-clone/ , and what was displayed by clicking on the link was my blog post from my other domain. These ads were dissapproved too.

However at the start of all this I accidentally created an ad that was directly linked to the blog post, without framing or whatever. That ad was approved. Of course that didn't do me no good, because the ultimate idea is to switch the landing page after the ad gets approval, but without touching the ads destination link within Facebook.

Anyway I feel it wasn't the image or the ad text(after all the ad was cloned from one of Tim Atkinson's own campaigns) but the destination or landing page, but I don't see how my redirects would be much different from redirecting through hypertracker and I wonder if and how other ad clone users get away with this?

    Hi Johanna,

    I'm going from memory here so I don't need to invest the time researching this in detail.

    Facebook are not allowing you to use a redirect, the method you explained above.
    They do allow you to use tracking software to count your clicks, bring you back for the need for Hypertracker.

    May I suggest an alternative to Hypertracker?

    AdWatcher.com lets you clone a previous setup for a campaign, HyperTracker requires you to type in all the fields again.

    When you testing a few ads and their are only small changes I found the clone feature valuable and retyping the same information 3-4 times drives me crazy.

    I did the trail and canceled, got an email from their sales. I responded with they are more expensive than Hypertracker and they matched the price. I assume because their was no affiliate payout as I found them via a Google search.

    Catch Ya..
