ARGH FACEBOOK!
Re: ARGH FACEBOOK!
Well maybe after 22 days you'll have an idea if all that advertising was generating business or not.
I'm standing up, so I must be straight.

It looks like their strategy is to restrict personal accounts so people opt for (paid) business accounts.rozzieoz wrote: ↑Sat Jul 09, 2022 1:20 pmYes because not all the groups allow you to join as a page. My strategy now is to only advertise on groups that allow me to join as the page.Kammekor wrote: ↑Sat Jul 09, 2022 12:06 pmAre you using a private account?rozzieoz wrote: ↑Sat Jul 09, 2022 10:35 am So frustrated I could smash something.
I've been restricted from posting in Facebook groups for 22 days!
My advertising strategy has always been to post one advert in a group and bump that post daily or weekly, depending on the group rules. I even pay to advertise in some groups and have never broken out of this strategy. I've been doing the same thing for YEARS, with a list of about 25 - 30 relevant groups.
Now all of a sudden I am breaching community standards on spam and have been restricted. I don't understand why now, all of a sudden things are different.
And there's nothing I can do about it.
So I have to remove my personal self from all the groups and try to join again as my page.
I guess one good thing is it will cut out a lot of unnecessary notifications.
Re: ARGH FACEBOOK!
True.
At least I own one of the largest groups on Facebook for South Africans immigrating overseas, I started it a few years ago and it now has just under 30 thousand members.
Thankfully i am not barred from posting on my own group!

Re: ARGH FACEBOOK!
Correct, it's very common for big groups to charge advertisers.

Yes. That guy’s great. I’ve donated in the past. Unfortunately he never developed it for mobile phones and I use my phone 99% of the time. I used it years ago when I used a computer or laptop to surfphuketrichard wrote: ↑Sat Jul 09, 2022 7:27 pm just a little side track but about fb

Copied from the website… FB Purity will not run on mobile / tablet browsers on Iphone or Android, or the IPad / Ipad2 / Ipad3 / IOS etc as they are not compatible.
Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.
Re: ARGH FACEBOOK!
The sponsored ads have really increased a lot. In the past, you might see one ad or even none, on a long scroll of the news feed. Now, I am seeing one ad almost every two or three posts. It is insanely annoying. Fewer posts coming through from friend connections, too. On Android, there is seemingly no way to filter this crap. Even ordinary non-sponsered posts on city forums are crowded with expats advertising restos, bars or some junk nobody wants to buy, lol... Now all these new sponsored mostly Khmer business and product ads. It is like a trashy newspaper... Time to dump FB, or post without looking at the feed...phuketrichard wrote: ↑Sat Jul 09, 2022 7:27 pm just a little side track but about fb
