RIP - Facebook Ads

Over the past few weeks, I tried many different platforms and like Facebook the most. Unfortunately, for me, it seems to be full of bugs. Since for around two weeks, they approve my ads, but the posts immediately get marked as spam and deleted...and because of that two of my Facebook pages even got removed. I even tried to use a blank image and no title and description, still the same problem.

Actually most of the people that are getting banned are either not following the ads policies correctly or are trying to do "something" that violates them.

Also, I had a chat with the customer support rep and the person said how FB does automated reviews every day at regular intervals. That often brings up false positives—however, if your offers are white-hat, and you have done nothing wrong, your ads will be approved manually, and your accounts will be reinstated.

The thing to understand about FB ads is that they are getting a lot stricter when it comes to their ad policies. They may have allowed "what you have been promoting" so far, but they will not do so anymore.

You either play by the rules or you are out.

Unfortunately the only option is to scale with farmed autoregs, in my experience. Sometimes FB ban blank pages, sometimes approve blackhat, however it's not the rule.

She is a girl and I did a stupid joke that would have made all men smile but not a girl, it's like that, I guess fishes can offend girls sometimes, but everything is alright at the end... she ignores me now and I can't annoy her anymore

That's right, Facebook always bans campaigns unreasonably even without a reason. They are too big and don't care about small customers

Btw I fully agree when it comes to iOS. The CPI for iOS apps increased a lot. At the same time ad revenue decreased a lot, because the most ads are not targeted anymore. Its not profitable anymore. If you have iOS apps, the only thing you can do is buy ads directly on Apple or to get organic traffic. Even tho, earnings through ad revenue will be much lower.

kinda been half a yr since i ran facebook ads but everyone in Verum Ecom Group on fb is bichin about the update so im guessing its legit
Group of actual dropshippers, some pretty successful. one of the best groups imo, people are constantly running ads on there

I stopped works with FB ads in August 2020.
Because the FB conversions are not getting me any results.
2 days ago they suspend my ads account. Reson: Promotes vulgar ads.
Seriously>>!!!

By the way, the Facebook support when it comes to ads is really superb. As I wrote above, I had some problems with my ads, which were automatically marked as spam and removed. Just a few hours later they called, I sent them the Ad IDs and today they just called me again and fixed the problem.

Difficulties are opportunities for those who really try. Many difficulties, few people run ads, you have less competitors. The key is to find the right niche and try

Remember, guys - the world never sleeps and nothing is permanent. When the old and previously reliable starts losing its flame, the new and yet to earn the trust and respect from the public is coming with a strong flame.

Facebook and Instagram, both are on a downslope. They passed their highest peak, the time of their prime. There are two options that I see from now on, first is that they will re-brand themselves and introduce us to something completely new and shocking, in a positive manner. Second option - in the darkest corner of the world, there is a genius who has been conjuring up something new and impressive, and its close to be finished.

There are just some rules revisions or should we say heightened restrictions along with the improvement and upgrade of Facebook.

I've read every post and I'm stunned, maybe I'm the lucky one here but so far I had no big problems with fb ads, maybe fb likes my niches or thinks is valuable content for the user experience served in an ad

Fb is telling us something, if they wanted to stop the ads they would've stopped them, but as long as you comply with the policies and your content is relevant by following what fb considers relevant to the users, you won't have major problems, at least in my experience.

This being said, I'll try to give some hope

This is absolutely true, the world keeps moving forward and we all know the interests of big corporations and lobbies the next 30 years, trends among consumers are changing and we need to adapt, I remember when I started in this world, I wrote the keywords I wanted to rank for in the footer of my web 200 times with the same colour as the footer had, that was the way to rank number 1 , today, there are smart fridges that buy directly from Az, washing machines you can control from your smart device, people is starting to eat different, think different, the whole automotive industry is changing as we know it. Like it or not, is happening.

What am I try to say with all this?

There always going to be a service to sell, an experience to offer, an alternative way of doing things, a workaround...think about it, a fridge with an IP.... My dad used to say... "while some cry, others sell tissues" stay focused.

The IOS update was just the lid on the coffin.

Just go to Reddit, facebook groups, youtube...anywhere you will see thousands of complaints from honest people, businesses, scammers, local vendors, everyone is complaining: it is impossible to work with FB Ads in 2021.

It doesn't matter if you sell drugs, guns, rabbits, apples, water bottles, cell phones, kidneys or portable coffee makers: you will be banned.

The permanent ban is the result after weeks of asking for ID, deactivating your ad account, your profile, your business manager and then finally you will get a permanent ban.

It doesn't matter if you have a verified BM, there are people here selling that for $400, it is an extremely risky investment because they are also fragile...you can use RPD, high quality proxies, real documents, it doesn't matter, the problem is that the level of censorship is absurd.

Yes, as long as you are not banned, you can make sales. If you know the audience and have the creatives, because without that, you won't make it. Because in 2021 it is IMPOSSIBLE to test new audiences and creatives, if you create too many campaigns you will certainly have your account disabled for a few days.

I still make money with products that I already know the right audience and the right video, but after a few days the accounts get banned. All 100% white hat...also I don't need to mention that CPM, CPC costs are MUCH higher and you can't identify the age or the origin of the buyer...it's the end of FB Ads.

you can't cook it. use brain. screen from TDS of 1 of my media buying team. for great attribution use appsflyer or branch. dont waste money. use 100$ verified unlimited bm. it's nonsense to pay 400 for bm.

facebook ads is now a days worst in all other medium, it was golden era of 2017-2020 when people make 7-8 figures with only facebook ads in shopify 1 product or general product store. those seller move from facebook ads to other platform's like tiktok snapchat.

We can use other channels to advertise instead of FB, there are also zalo or youtube channels

Its not luck, i've been banned multiple times like cake, my friend who is into fb ads also, but there is learning curve to everything, so why would FB ads be any different.
I dont want to be flameboy just you are missing out, facebook ads and what you can do with them, no other social network can come close.
Try with snapchat ads ( and other ads ), if what are you doing is good and is making you money try getting back to facebook. And please dont buy accounts maded in India and expect to work. Uncle Zuck is smarter than that
