Facebook Social Ads

facebook got smart. they no longer directly link to the ad they now add this to every ad:

www*facebook.com/ac.php?meta=

so it redirects from their servers. i used to just copy the ads' link instead of click on it so it doesnt cost the advertiser any money and go to the page to snoop it out.
It's a 302 redirect. So it's most likely just for tracking purposes.
 


Ad I created about 1.5 hours ago. Its nice to get cheap clicks, but you get what you pay for. The quality of FB's traffic for the most part sucks, and with lead gens, eventually you'll catch shit from your AM's.

I suggest using FB traffic to supplement a successful PPC search campaign, or SEO campaign. Search quality is generally good but expensive.

is anyone not seeing their spending limit auto increase? i've been maxing out at $750 for 5 days now. dont know what the deal is. good for cash flow bad for profit!!!
 
Fuck facebook. Same issue here...been trying to get new ads up to no avail. They're even rejecting my ads when I click on "Create a similar ad" on ads I'm already running, but simply want to change the demographics on. What the fuck is going on here?
 
is anyone seeing a dramatic drop in conversion rate?

Yes, we are all seeing a huge drop in conversions because every person using Facebook met up today and decided they would click on ads but do nothing more. So obviously it is not anything to do with how you are promoting the offer...

Smartass.

Yesterday I saw a HUGE drop in conversions on campaigns that are well established and have a solid history of conversions. Then, today, it goes back to normal. Weird.
 
what is the rejection you are getting - image issues or something else?


landing page issues apparently.. The destination URL of this ad violates part or all of sections 2, 12, and 13 of Facebook's Advertising Guidelines.

Its a dating offer i've been promoting for ages, using the same landing page i've been running for ages. cant win with these fuckers. Im not even using cleavage pics..
 
Yeah I've had plenty through and still have quite a lot running.. but most of my traffic has dropped off so im trying to get some new ads in. mofos wont approve ANYTHING

I dunno wtfs happened.. I was spending nearly $300 a day but now i can barely make it to $100
 
lol my dating was doing so good, and now it completely died. i have no idea why, still getting the same amount of clicks, but conversions just went down the hole
 
yeah my conversions have gone down the shitter aswell. I went from 100% ROI to breaking even... dunno wtf happened. That along with fb not approving any of my ads has put quite a dint in my daily earnings (by which i mean i aint earning a penny anymore).

Sounds like someone turned the electric razor on. Guess your traffic was not converting into real sales. :repuke:

same thing happened to me. Had an established LP on a blog, working fine, and then it stopped.

What I realized is that I had added some general content to the blog that had words in in that where outside of the TOS (booty call, hookup, etc). While they where not in the content of the LP they where showing up in recent post. I removed all of the questionable pages, and the URL was working fine again.
 
I just got an ad approved, but it had a typo so i deleted it and created the same ad correcting the typo and it they rejected it!
