NEW Facebook Ads



More of my ads are getting through since I made it a policy to challenge the disapprovals and made them deal with me personally. Most ads that I challenged were later approved. They actually apologized for the disapproval mistakes, but didn't give me any explanation for them.

I say if you're having approval problems, write back and hassle them.


Not sure I want to draw that much attention to my accounts really.
 
Did anyone else used to have an email contact with a 'facebook account manager'? was that just something they tried out for a while?

Don't know how it could fuck you over, they already see everything before it hits the site.

Just complain about the legit ads that get disapproved. Not anything shady. Lol.
 
If facebook disapproves your ad dont hit up your rep cause most likely they will just feed you bullshit why it got dissaproved just keep resubmitting trust me you can get any ad on even if it s dissaproved while your running it.
 
WTF? All my campaigns for over a year now have a budget of $100,000, just out of habit now, but once upon a time that gave you max traffic. I'm screwed at some point, if thats true.

Need more info on this. Whats their exact reasoning and what do we do to accommodate their godly desires? Cunts.

yep well you are probably going to be fucked... cross your fingers... some are getting sued for well over 6 figures... maybe if you dont use the pause feature to stop ads during bad times you have a chance....

pm me if you want to talk more about this
 
A new bug as well - can't clone ads from an old campaign into a new one. Get an error box that just says "1487068'. retarded.

I found if do create similar ad and copy it exactly it gets through without an error. From there you can copy the ad you just created and make changes.

Yes Facebook is suing people for hundreds of thousands of dollars for pausing their ads. This makes so much fucking sense.
 
yea basically saying... dont use the features we gave you... only set your budget to how much you want to lose... and only pause on midnight pst if you choose to pause
 
Meh if you get sued blast techcrunch and digg with it they'll eat that shit up cause that's a pile of retardation.
 
What the fuck is Facebooks deal?
I have been running mobile on there for over 6 months and two weeks ago they tell me I have to add "subscription required" to all of my ad copies, so I do it. Three days ago they tell me I have to add "$9.99/month" TO MY AD COPY! So I do it. Today, I submit about 75 ads for testing a new offer. Every single one gets disapproved because I didn't have "Subscription Required $9.99/month" in my ad copy, heres the best part.. I DID HAVE THAT IN MY AD COPY.

FUCK YOU FACEBOOK

i understand your need to vent but if you DO have "Subscription Required $9.99/month" in your ads, just click the link under the disapproval email and request an explanation...most likely they will see their mistake (if there was one) and approve all the ads.

Good luck getting an ROI on that.

I was looking for a recap of the FB discussion at ASW, and read this little nugget on John Chow's blog:

"Alex Schultz of Facebook said this may the last year for affiliates to take advantage of Facebook Ads because they’re getting so big, they are attracting the big brand advertisers who will eventually push out the affiliate marketer."

I wish i heard the direct quote 'cause it sounds like what he really said is they're following Google's footsteps to try and push affiliates out.
