NEW Facebook Ads

Does facebook 'freeze' your account somewhat and stop showing impressions on all running campaigns if they have given you a warning about an ad, or if you have requested an upping of daily spend?
 


I know click fraud has become pretty bad on Facebook, but I'm seeing 35-40% now. Shits out of control. A year or so ago click charges tended to be more in your favor, if not spot on. Good way to boost earnings I suppose.

Not just international clicks either (but a bit part of the problem). Phantom clicks that never even hit my server.


When I left FB, my click discrepancy was averaging 30%. I tried changing so many things to see if it could be an issue on my side, but nope, it was simply clicks that don't exist that facebook still charges for. International was even worse, I was seeing an average of 40%.

Fuck Facebook.
 
Anybody else having MASSIVE issues with FB and ClickBank?

I started to promote clickbank a few days ago and getting almost every ad declined for all niches. Images, ad text, offers are all different and all tame. They give me different reasons everytime.

Last night I was emailed saying they dont allow "Ads for Farmville/Cityville cash or energy are not allowed as per Facebook ad guidelines. They are restricted content." yet it was for a How to do better at CityVille eBook. They threatened to BAN Me....WTF.

Today all my relationship eBooks and Building fence shit declined for like 5 different reasons. Sometimes they just leave the reason area blank.

I have only ever done CPA on Facebook till the last few days but they seem to have a hard on for ClickBank. I have never had any major issues with dating stuff even with images that push the boundaries.

Stupid thing is everytime 90% of the ads get declined and always a few get approved from the same fucking reviewer IP.
 
Is anyone having an issue where you can't change/save bids? What's funny is I can modify/change and save anything else in the FB ad interface except my bids! Awesome!

Yeah, I'm experiencing this too. Try checking the box, hitting edit, and then making the change. Works for me.

Just noticed that for last week, one of my Intl camps had over 40% click fraud. 40-fucking-percent!

I wonder if regular businesses are getting screwed too with these phantom clicks or is it just affiliates?
 
someone should submit their proof to TechCrunch. I can see the headline already

"Facebook Rapes Advertisers Again - Advertisers Out for Blood"
 
Agreed this click discrepancy is ridiculous, 20%-40% is the average, one campaign had 60% the day I decided to kill it.

We did, 2 years ago:

Facebook Click Fraud Enraging Advertisers (Updated)

Maybe it's time for us raise the issue with TC again and see if facebook will finally do something about it?
 
Are you guys comparing FB clicks to network stats?

or FB clicks to prosper stats?

Sometimes an advertiser will scrub your clicks to inflate your EPC if quality dips. Makes you look like you're making money but actually only 50% of clicks are being tracked.

I am sure they won't do that when your running 10000 clicks daily.
 
first the errors.

***************k nvm. just waited a few minutes and started working again. but came back to the apps
 
Anyone forced to update to the new interface today?

I keep going to the main campaign page and it shows none of my campaigns. I have to refresh like 10-20 times before my campaigns actually show up. I mean, the new rich graphs are nice and all, but just wishing for something a little more robust... especially from a billion dollar company.

How exactly are you determining that click fraud is occurring? Are you talking about clicks reported by Facebook versus actual clicks in your tracking system? Our campaign performance has dropped off a cliff in the last 45-60 days.
