Posting in Groups and Keep Getting Banned/Blocked?

[BassTrackerBoats]

Well, you are doing something wrong then and against my better judgment, because I make a little change from FB groups, and admin a few of them, I'll share some reasons why your accounts keep getting bounced.

• If you are posting in a group that is country centric, use a name that is familiar to those in that country... i.e., if you are posting in the USA and your name is not an American sounding name that could be problematic.
• Do not use 2 first names for your fake accounts. Accounts that are named Joe Charles are a red flag to Admins in groups and a good chance you will get blocked.
• Don't spam the groups. Be mindful that the Admins are there to keep things in line and if you spam good chance you will get banned.
• Don't post the same thing over and over again and don't post the same thing others are posting.
• Don't link to a Telegram group... those posts are red flags and may get you tossed from the group.
• Don't use your affiliate link in the group... link to a landing page instead.
• If the group is GEO centric, make that GEO your area on your profile.
• Do not use a huge city as your location but pick a small one in that general area.
• Populate your FB account with content and friends as that does get reviewed by some Admins to see if you are real or someone like me instead.
• Do not post half a message. Be complete in your message and be sure to follow up to responses.
• Images, images, Images, use them in your posts and make them relative to your post.
• Forex, crypto and other sketchy posts put you in a spot to get that removed and you blocked.
• Before setting up a link to your site, run it through here so your images from your site do show - https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/
• Use the 4 to one program for posting... 4 non marketing posts to 1 marketing post. You'll fit in if the 4 are not spammy and have a better chance of the one that matters staying live.
• When joining groups that require you to answer some questions, answer them. It does not have to be the truth but your answers have to fit inside of that the Admins would expect from someone who is not there to game the platform.
• If the group is about shoes and you are marketing cheeseburgers, you are wasting your time in that group if you post about your burgers.

Those bullet points all say one thing, "Come across like a real person who has a legitimate interest in the group's goals and you'll have a much better chance of making a nice little living from posting on that platform".

I've been playing in that sandbox since sometime in 2015 and those points above are ones that you absolutely should follow.

Great write up, Greg.

In my limited experience, using multiple accounts to join the same group and comment across each other’s posts in the form of a funnel has also helped. As in, A posts about a nice product and if someone else isn’t already asking you about it in the comments, use a secondary account to do it for you. Makes it seem a lot less spammy and

Come across like a real person

Bump, more people should read this. I'm thinking in growing some facebook groups this year an this is very helpful. What about sharing posts from other groups (say mine) to grow them? Is it allowed and does it work or there are better ways?

THis is gold!

Need more Bass Tracker wisdom

"Forex, crypto and other sketchy posts put you in a spot to get that removed and you blocked." - not very sure about this one. Have done this in the past and never had a problem. What else am I supposed to post in a crypto group? News about crypto burgers?

Sometimes other group posts are not public so that can be an issue so be sure you are posting from a public group.

Not in my groups and we control a bunch of them. You are smart as you are not posting in groups where the Admins are not too aggressive as to what is allowed or not. Post that garbage in any of my groups and we will politely remove you and your posts.

Firstly, I only post in relevant groups. So crypto stuff I only post in crypto groups.
Also, you reminded me that I need to clean up my group list as I need to leave the groups where admins are too strict (it's almost impossible for me to share in hundreds groups anyway).
Also, some groups require you to have a profile image.

Even posting landing pages could get you banned

 

[e-service]

you mean getting account banned from facebook or banned from facebook groups you posted?

Bookmarked this thread as the bible for newbie like me. Thank you OP.
Today's takeaway lesson for me:
"Come across like a real person who has a legitimate interest in the group's goals and you'll have a much better chance of making a nice little living from posting on that platform".

You are a genius.

It took me a month and a half to learn that and you got it in 4.4 seconds.

I look forward to seeing your contributions on the forum as I'm sure I and many, many others will learn from them.

[BassTrackerBoats]

i felt FB died because of 2 reasons

1) people start buying mass "FB-ADs"
2) group admins checking now every post before beeing visible
