no - $30,000 is not the top limit in any of our accounts. If you work with them, they will work with you.
 
That is a pretty good advice already, but I'm going to answer the question:


From what I saw the reason for the huge and fast increase must be a combination of:

1. A good volume of campaigns and ads. I had around 10 campaigns with each 10 ads, 6 of them disapproved though, as always ;) Daily budget was set between $50-$250 each (if you check the campaigns more than daily, you still have good control over your spending).

2. Good targeted ads with good CTR. I managed to get a CTR of almost 1% for one campaign, which is pretty high on Facebook I guess. Others were between 0,1% - 0,5%. I always pause underperforming ads fast. I also started CPM campaigns on the high CTR ads. The reason is just

a) tight targeting using not only demographics but also relevant keywords. I don't need (and want) maximum reach, but maximum relevant contacts.

b) good images (I use google image search or flickr creative commons) and then create that 110x80 img (that way it doesn't get cropped when uploaded and you get the max space out of your image) and mostly sharpen it a little with Photoshop. The headline is very important and write a compelling benefit into the text, including a strong call to action ("Get this ebook now!")

excellent advice!!

I'm still spending huge money on Facebook with 2 bans in my entire history, just lost my 1st account last week. Mostly internal international campaigns nowadays :). I occasionally hit the US when there is a good campaign here or there.

Are your international campaigns targeting primarily english-speaking countries?

Have you noticed any difference between the approval % of US ad's vs. International ad's?
