problem with bit.ly link

[neeldown]

I recently got approved by OGAds for a landing page. I shortened it with bit.ly and put it on the 'website' part of one of my instagram accounts.

The problem is, once I tested the link out by clicking on it, instagram redirects to a page that says

"Problem with this link
the link you're trying to follow redirects to ... and may be malicious"

Is there any way I can get rid of this? because I've seen other bit.ly's on IG accounts, and this doesn't happen. I'm also afraid that this will hurt my conversions.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

I don't think IG have any problem with bit.ly they actually have problem with the link of OGads. Buy your own domain and host your landing page yourself. That's better I think.

Recently someone posted a thread that instagram is banning every bit.ly link

Don't use bit ly direct to CPA companies. Eventually they ban them all.

This happens when the IG crawlers are detecting your website as malicious. They follow the bit.ly link to the destination, no matter how many redirects you do, and if the destination is considered as bad (OGAds landing pages are detected as bad) your URL will be blocked.

It has nothing to do with bit.ly.

Thanks. But I've seen many people market on IG using the same method. How are they able to do that?

Hi, just buy a .com domain and a hosting package. It should not cost you more than $20 per year. And host the LP there. You need to have some knowledge of hosting for this.

They do it by sending the IG bots to a legit page and the real users to the CPA lander.
