Well why don't you try it and find out? What will they do, take your birthday away?:D
 


Yea shit... I forgot to mention that...
Im not 100% if its on everything or not because I've limited with what I know is allowed and whats not.
Redirects will get you disabled use a LP or direct link
redirects are all I CAN get to work...go figure
 
That sounds about right jstme lol

Facebook needs to get their shit together and satisfy demand with a solid ppc platform. You think they rely on people sending those $1 gifts for their income... They're delving into something I really don't quite think they were ready for. Just my .02
 
I wonder if it's because for some reason when I did this particular redirect the lag time was a lot longer then usual.... (what's the reason for that and is there something I can do about that?)

Wish I had that "problem" :/

Redirects are simply just not allowed:

From FB:

Please note that we additionally do not allow redirecting
URLs, and your flyer must link directly to the site it
accurately represents. I apologize for any inconvenience
this might cause.

Thanks for your understanding,
 
Whats so fucking hard about posting that shit in the TOS instead of having some knucklehead type it out to you everytime you ask....

Facebook = Silly Fuckers

Ok so they want me to post my bigasslong affilliate link? Don't they have a character limit for the url space?

I just figured out what IP's and referrers Facebook is using and show them the landing page. Watch for referrers from dev.facebook.com and just Facebook | Welcome to Facebook! (with no user/message/etc ids or paths).

Also just this past week I've had charges started trickling through from October. Things weren't adding up quite right so I asked for an itemized list of my charges and they had charged me $80+ for a day a week before I even started running any ads. Make sure you watch what they're charging you since they've obviously had some issues with their payment processes.

Hopefully they don't let the interns code their next big project, and they have the smarts and foresight to come up with some ground rules and make them known.

-the mole
 
No, affiliate links are redirects, read that again carefully. You have to use a landing page.

Really? cause I'm reading "your flyer must link directly to the site it
accurately represents" as the offer page, not a landing page. Especially since, like in a dating offer, you have to use the url in the body.

I guess I have to just try it again and see, my only concern here is how many times do you get diabled until they just decide to say "fuck it" and ban your ass?
 
where exactly are you reading that you HAVE to use a landing page??? i've had some flyers up for weeks that are on redirects...launched a flyer last night with landing page and was disabled within the hour

They are manual reviewing. 100% Sure. I have bunches of data to back it up. So don't even bother with scammy ads, and they aren't accpeting 99% of dating ads anymore.

Got any ideas OTHER than using a landing page?


I had flyers up for a week too with redirects. Eventually they got disabled when I started playing around with stuff. I'd suggest you leave them alone.

Turbolapp, another words they don't want a "meet hot sexy women" ad with a redirect. If you linked out directly to let's say singlesnet then it would be fine. ( I think )
 
To get around the 'no redirects' rule, simple register a throwaway domain and throw up the offer in a full-screen iframe. Problem solved.

Incidentally, if you get banned early on - like me - it is possible to get them to reenable your account. I wrote a long email explaining that - as far as I could understand - I wasn't breaking any of their rules.
 
Ok I found out why my ad was disabled:

Unfortunately we don't allow images of people on dating flyers. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

Thanks for contacting Facebook,

No people on dating offers...do they want Sheep instead?
