Facebook declined my order and sent the following email. any one suggest what to do now ?

Reason(s):
We do not allow ads for "work from home", MLM, get rich quick and other inaccurate money-making opportunities that offer compensation for little or no investment. This includes pyramid schemes or other money-making business models which do not fully explain any product or opportunity that leads to the claimed income.

    Maybe come up with an offer that's within the boundaries of their TOS?

        If they don't want you advertising those types of offers, then changing your wordings will only get your next ad shut down eventually and then probably someday your account banned forever, like Adwords has done to so many.

        Why don't you just advertise elsewhere or find some programs that are within their TOS?

    The trouble with Facebook is that they do have restrictions on certain ads such as IM, health and self improvement markets.

    I would try a different ad network, there are many others out there.

    if its the offer in the sig, I'd deny it also.


    Its nothing but another make money online offer, but yours has a no refund policy


    That is how you're wanting to make money online, its not by following the product you're selling. The intent of the webpage is pretty transparent

      The reason was not the refund policy. the reason was quick rich or make money online scheme.

      There are lot of websites i know are't allowing refunds and they are advertising on facebook. So Refund policy has nothing to do with facebook

        I'm not saying it was the no refund policy alone. but you're promising that someone will make all kinds of money if they use your technique to circumvent craigslist policy.

        It's typical MMO scam looking, paypal screenshot and all... and the two highest dollar items in the paypal screenshot are from hide my IP and some other craigslist tool.


        you opened the thread by saying your ad was rejected and quoted facebooks reasoning with no other input of your own, what type of reply were you expecting? support with pitchforks marching to facebook HQ??? I'm just pointing out some of the obvious reasons you got that rejection.


        sure, you can do like the above poster said and trick facebook into accepting a link that eventually leads to your offer, but it's still typical MMO crap material.

      It happened to me also for Empower Network. So I just used a different capture page by Simple2Advertise and changed the wording a bit.

    Facebook and Google are getting pretty strict with their advertising policies. I would just move on to other traffic sources such as POF

      They reject tons of stuff. I have had them reject ads that are for non-profit or volunteer groups I serve on the board of directors for. Simple event notices, and weird rejections. Sometimes they say because the image used in the ad contains more than 20% text. Facebook sucks. LOL

    Happens all to often my friend, try sending to a different squeeze page or even better if you have the tools available send the traffic to a page inside of your fan page that is a squeeze page. Facebook wants to keep their traffic so if you send it to your fan page you will get approved easier and get cheaper clicks but still getting those leads.

      Exactly what I was going to say, If you are more interested in the list building aspect- put an Opt-In form inside of your Fan Page...

      I would be almost concerned in what you are selling..
      But I haven't had an add rejected in Facebook - but mostly I have tried to push Clickbank eBooks.

      But what you have in your tag to sell, the Craigslist stuff, *when* I did that, I had things only last 2-3 hours or less.. No matter what I did.. the "moderators" that run and just flag every ad that wasn't theirs..

      I dont see how its possible.. but hey that's me.

    I didn't know about this, I think it's great, there's so much scam programs out there.

    Have you invested much time and money setting up this offer?Google and FB are done with the make money online niche, you can try tier 2 search engines such as 7search, POF is also another place to run some tests.

    I will also recommend you create a Fanpage and try some dating and/or zip submit offers on FB if you really want to create a presence there. By creating a Fanpage you can have a list you can repeatedly sell to, this is a lot like email marketing.

    A friend of mine created a Fanpage around "dating thai girls" and a week and a half later he was sitting atop of 10k fans with little effort (all he did was post images of girls to the page every now and then). He later began monetizing the page with dating offers. Mind you, the page was not pornographic or anything, it only had photos of beautiful models with an occasional bikini pic thrown in.

    You can also create Fanpages for humorous content and then monetize them with zip submits and/or dating offers.

    Hope this helps.

    Read the facebook policy about posting ads. You might be breaking one of their rules.

    The best way to do it and get your ads approved quickly is to set up a fan page, make a tab using a free static iframe app (woobox) with your link you want to promote, and direct your ads to it. Simple and easy. I have a free FB training video that will go over all of this on how to market FB using your fanpage. Pm me if you are interested
