Hi guys,
For all of you experiencing difficulties with link shorteners here is the thing, Facebook pretty much hates them and 9 times out of 10 know's what is behind them. Facebook hates affiliate links and more so CPA links.
What I would recommend is one of 2 options, the free option, and the paid option.
free method:
make a landing page, there are many ways you can do this, either using free webpage editors such as:
https://www.wix.com
https://www.yola.com
www.1and1.co.uk
Or by using free blog providers such as:
https://wordpress.com
https://www.en.sitew.com
https://www.blogger.com
Now yes this will require a little work, maybe an hour or 2 and if you are unfamiliar with website editors or blogs hit up the glorious YouTube and you will find plenty of resources to help there.
Paid method:
simply sign up for hosting and a domain name that is relevant to your CPA niche for example if your promoting job offer, buy a domain such as easy-careers.com or something along them lines.
I have 4 domains that I pay for once a year and hosting which I pay £30 a month for but if you're just getting started you can get a free domain and hosting for around $5 a month at
http://hostgator.com
after that just set up a redirect so you can put easy-careers.com into Facebook and it will redirect to your CPA offer.
Hope this help guys
