NEW Facebook Ads

Weird thing happened yesterday, out of the blue under "Notifications" where it normally tells me daily summary of how many ads created, how many approved, declined etc now its just empty and says "You don't have any notifications" even if I created some ads and got ads approved...Also I was updating some ads within a campaign and the bid was 0.01 lower that the recommended lowest bid and I got a warning "BID TOO LOW" this never happened before some other campaigns have bids 0.02 or 0.5 lower that the lowest recommended bid...weird stuff
 


No luck getting traffic on the lowered bids. I don't se any notifications today either. Was like this yesterday too.
 
meh, everyone is ready to "drop" double their daily amount. It's a matter of actually getting the traffic..

The problem I've noticed when you start to do in the thousands of spend per day, your account gets scrutinised.

New to the facebook system, and am in the same position, except I want to spend 10x more than my spend limit, but can't get any ads approved. How do you get ads approved, any advice?

keep submitting the same ones over and over, eventually you'll get them all through
 
can't help but to think your being sarcastic, seeing that it's WF. But I usually do get approved in the morning and not in the evening for some reason.

lol ^^

If your ads follow their guidelines, resubmitting is the only way to get them through.

Be more specific if you want advice.

Does anyone know any good EDU campaigns? I've tried out Affiliateer.com's and CPAEmpire, and they are working well now. What affiliate network has the best EDU campaigns anyway?
 
Improving Ad Quality

Ad quality and user feedback have always been important considerations
for Facebook Ads, and are significant factors in determining which ads we
accept and display on the site. We’ve recently taken a close look at the ads
that drive the most negative feedback, and identified four key themes
behind ads that are detrimental to the user experience. As a result, we’re
strengthening our Advertising Guidelines in these key areas to ensure that
all Facebook Ads meet our high quality standards.

Unexpected User Experience

Advertised products may not generate any unanticipated user experience.
This includes, but is not limited to:
1 Computer performance changes, such as the unexpected
installation of any secondary software or the overlay of
advertisements on the user’s browser or operating system
2 Unanticipated recurring charges
3 Undisclosed sale or distribution of requested user information.
Any distribution of user information must be confirmed through
user consent.

Unclear Recurring End Product

Advertisements must be clear and straightforward in describing any
recurring end product to the user. The advertised offer must directly
match the service being sold, and ads should provide the user with a clear
understanding of what he or she is purchasing.

Facebook Ads for products with recurring billing cycles
should not:
1 Focus on an advertised “hook” without disclosing the core
subscription-based service.
Example: “Take a quiz!” (for a service that includes ringtones, wallpaper, or other
undisclosed services)
2 Position a subscription-based service as a single product or
billing interval.
Example: ”Try now for $2.95” (for a service that includes monthly billing intervals)

Unsubstantiated Claims

Ads must not include unsubstantiated claims. Ads must clearly represent
the offer, company, product, or brand that is being advertised.
Unacceptable claims include, but are not limited to:
1 Unrealistic prices or rates.
Examples: “$0.50 LCD TVs,” “$10/month health insurance”
2 Use of current events or news reports to create false associations
with the advertised product. Political events or images may not be
used for an irrelevant commercial agenda.
Example: “Breaking News: Great car insurance rates”
3 Use of false qualifications to create a sense of relevancy
Example: “If you are right-handed, you qualify for low premiums”
4 Implication of dynamic ad content
Examples: “7 minutes remaining,” “only (3) available”
5 Implied knowledge or passing of user data
Examples: “See who searched for you,” “you have been chosen”

Unacceptable Business Models

Ads will not be permitted in cases where a business model or practice is
deemed unacceptable or contrary to Facebook’s overall advertising
philosophy.

Unacceptable business models include, but are not limited
to:
1 Lead generation offers which sell or distribute a user’s
information to larger extent than indicated by the landing page
2 Offers that require a user to complete several hidden steps or
make additional purchases in order to receive the promised product
3 Offers that require the input of user information for complete
access to offer or product details
4 Ads promoting deceptive recurring billing services
5 Downloadable software that may affect the user’s computer or
browser performance in unexpected or undesirable ways




Facebook is dead and/or not real.
 
"Lead generation offers which sell or distribute a user’s
information to larger extent than indicated by the landing page"

- wonder what % of lead gen offers this will effect.

"Downloadable software that may affect the user’s computer or
browser performance in unexpected or undesirable ways"

- gaming slap?

not gaming, offers like gamevance maybe

For lead gen, I don't see how it's possible for them to tell if the user information is distributed further than the specific offer.

For gaming, that's been in their guidelines for a while.


Either way, these terms suck, and are definitely going to be affecting CTR's on many people's campaigns when adjusting to them.
 
lol I setup a campaign for my friends band (he's playing a show tomorrow) and it just got disapproved.

3 Use of false qualifications to create a sense of relevancy
Example: “If you are right-handed, you qualify for low premiums”

so is scholarships for moms/dads/neighbors/uncles/dogs gone? Cause that offer is bs all the way..

"if you have a child you can get $10k and use it on whatever you want and never have to pay it back!"

def sounds legit..
 
Anyone using more than one account... do you use the same credentials and credit card for paying with your other accounts? Or is FB as tight as Google when it comes to noticing multiple accounts with one user?

Thanks for writing in. Please note, that although we do not encourage having more than one account, we recognize that for organizational purposes, it is sometimes necessary to open multiple advertising accounts.

You can create secondary business accounts by following these directions:

1. Click on 'Advertising' at the bottom of the page on Facebook.com (when completely logged out).
2. Click "Create an Ad" (green button).
3. Create a campaign by going through steps 1-3 (note this ad will not actually run, but a "dummy" ad must be set-up in order to get to the next screen).
4. When prompted to log in at "Facebook Login", make sure to select "I do not have a Facebook account."
5. Input a general company e-mail address or your company e-mail address (Make sure that the e-mail does not match with your Facebook personal profile e-mail address or any other Facebook email address in our system). Please also note the general email address cannot be an email like, info@, help@, support@.
6. Verify the e-mail address through your inbox.

Now, your business account has been created! Please do not click "Create Your Profile" within this account.

You can now log into the account and create an ad by clicking on the "Advertising" link. You will be prompted for your credit card information after you have placed an order for an ad.

Thanks for contacting Facebook, and please let me know if you have any additional questions,

Anyone else getting "The page you requested was not found." whenever you try to view an ad in your campaign?
