Maxbounty links being rejected by Twitter and Facebook

Back in the days once bitly for example gets suspended on FB or Reddit or Twitter, I look for a new shortener that hasn't been spammed that much.

Use that one until it gets suspended, find a new one, rinse and repeat.

Anyway, you can always go for cheap domains and create landing pages.

I actually used two cheap domains one with .tk and the other with a .ml extension. The .tk got bounced but the .ml seemed to go through on Facebook.
I'll try to use different shorteners and see how that goes. I'm also trying to find a good landing page layout. I'm still relatively new to this so it's all a bit of trial and error. I have a good hosting service which means that I can put up as many domains/pages as I like, so hopefully sooner or later something will work out.

As much as this can sound like I'm not normal, believe me... You're on the right track!

You are not one of those who will ask and wait to get the best answer, pick 1 out of 50, then the next 2 days they will work on it and come back and write, "this is all a lie, nothing works I tried everything!"

In reality, people try one or two things and say that nothing works, even though they themselves know that there are a hundred other options, they are lazy.

This won't have too much to do with your question but, you need to know that you are on the right track indeed.

You will have to fall many times and get up and move on, and you will fall again and again, but it is important to get up and learn a lesson, because only in that way do we succeed in the end, we gain experience and everything else.

Basically, there are a lot of new shorteners, just about a year ago on Twitter and FB I was doing a test, all of the "famous" and old are on the black list, while all of the new ones are very good and have a huge pass rate on all networks.

I'm not so active on networks anymore, but look and see what FB and other networks don't allow, maybe those domains that are used for spam in practice, .tk .xyz, etc., maybe they were banned, which wouldn't surprise me.

Basically, I wish you all the best, when you have a question feel free to ask it.

All the best

Thanks for the encouragement. I did a few searches and found that you can test a URL using Facebook Developers sharing debugger. That will tell you if the URL is banned or not. What is confusing is that I used the same page on two different sites and one gets banned and one doesn't.


it's the same with Twitter, some work and some don't. It's just a matter of trying links out and eliminating the ones that don't work.

What I really need are good examples of landing pages, there are a lot out there and some great tutorials on Blackhatwold it's just that it's a little overwhelming at times.

I think that what will happen is what usually happens to me. I'll try for ages and then all of a sudden everything will fall into place. The only problem is I never can remember how the hell I did it in the first place!

Facebook can read where your link ends up so things like bit.ly wont work. If you have a link to MB on your landing page it might work for a while but it will get your domain blocked. A real cloaker is the best way to do it but it can be expensive so the easiest way is to set up a couple of redirects and get people to click on a button to get to the next page. Im not sure what you promote but a simple button with things like "are you in USA" or "are you male or female". Another way is creating a landing page in Google docs and posting the google docs link. Fb dont ban Google.
