I don't suppose you created your site on WP did you?
if he did would a simple mysql import work? im not too good with WP but that seems an easy option?
The problem with cloning it is that the file names are going to be the same and sometimes FB will use a filename to ghost/ban a domain as well as the domain itself.
The OP is going to have a bit of work ahead of himself to replicate that site on a new domain unless there is some way to change the names of the files in the auto-replication process.
Can you pm me the facebook groups links?Hi,
Lately, I've been promoting my own site in facebook groups a bit. It has driven lots of traffic (sometimes up to 3000 visitors per day) but it looks like I'm banned or something.
When I post into a group, my message don't reach the people from the group anymore.
I've created different and new accounts but they all don't work anymore.
Is there a way this can be fixed or bypassed?
Please let me know,
Thank you very much in advance,
Benjamin
The easiest thing to do would be to use a link cloaking tool, there are many out there and as far as I know, they are still working. You'll just need to buy throw away domains to use with them and maybe a few private proxies for new accounts to use to join the groups that you are having problems with. You should definitely try to see your post in the group from a different account and see if it's not something there.
I have a question here (probably to BTB) - if you would buy a domain and post only different subdomains on FB group - would FB ban the whole domain anyway?
chances are they wont reply to you as you were posting out spamming groups. can you post to your own personal profile?

I feel bad for the OP as this is no small issue for a site that has 2K hours into it. The sites I promote using FB "spam" are all set it and forget it sites and if they get hit it I have to spend a whole 45 minutes making a new one.
What do you actually mean with filename? Is text also under that category or only images, videos, links, etc?
What do you think would be the best thing I can do?
I'm using Wordpress and just spoke to the customer service of my hosting provider (Siteground) and they told me that it is possible to export my complete site to another domain.

I'm not an SEO or website management guy, but I'm sure you can set up every file to use a character offset of some sort (e.g. http://domain.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/image_name.jpg becomes http://domain.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/92367281591image_name.jpg).You can move it with WPClone or some other plugins as well but when you do that the files, images, permalinks, etc are all going to have the same name. I've gotten away with the same content no problem but for instance, http://domain.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/image_name.jpg, is not going to change if you use a clone or have it moved.
@shezboy is sharp and has some techies on his team and maybe he has some way to move the site and not duplicate those names so perhaps he can pop in here for you.
You could put the images in a mass re-hasher then overwrite them. Do you know if Facebook looks at hashes for everything, or just images?@BassTrackerBoats, not even just the filenames/paths but for images the hash value of the image will remain the same (because it's the same file), and FB is good at matching blacklisted hashes for images.
