I think they have an algorithm for ad popularity rates based on whether they were disapproved by the person viewing previous ads. For example, when I was an affiliate for MLB.TV through CJ, I remember sending people to another page so they can click on my aff link.

But I think people were flagging the ad, because all my MLB ads after were not approved. I know that there is a HUGE disdain for “making money online” ads on Facebook. I think people are flagging them, and it is just harder to get any of them to be published by FB.

I think you should put out ads that aren’t going to get flagged, because the more you are flagged, the harder it may be to put out those same ads again. I can’t think of an equation, but I will say 5 ads that won’t get flagged to one that will will keep them approving your ads.

Hm why FB doesnt want your money ? I mean what is the standard or the requirements for posting a FB ad. Getting all of your ads declined it just sucks !

I agree, you’ll just have to play the resubmit game until a drunk reviewer approves you. You have the upper hand while others give up, so keep at it.

An interesting situation I’ve experienced several times was, when submitting several ads at once, if I had some ads that were sure to be approved below a questionable ad, all of the ads were disapproved. I went back and resubmitted each of those ads that were sure to be approved on their own (i.e. they were the only one in the campaign that were ‘Pending review’), and they were approved.

I think the Facebook ad approvers see one questionable ad, disapprove it, and then blindly disapprove all the ads, or more than likely, click their ‘isapprove all pending ads’ button.

I can’t verify this, but possibly a strategy is to submit your ads in order, from least questionable to most questionable, so that they don’t blanket disapprove all of them. I can’t say that submitting ads one at a time is a viable strategy, but if you have one that has been disapproved that you are sure should get through, submit it on its own and hope they get to it quick.

Do you find you get the proper return for your time investment? I’m sure many affiliates give up after a few attempts, it’s great that you’re persistent.

I got 4 approved this weekend…I ended up using pics that were not as hot as I would have liked but whatever…Still trying to get the economics to work…CPC is pretty expensive for a $3 payout…”not hot” pictures don’t work very well with CPM…Any thoughts? I’m planning to keep switching them out until one works.
