Banned. Is My Campaign F*cked?

My only Facebook account got banned this morning.

I know that we can't use the same URL's in new accounts.

Here's my question:

I've been searching around the forum, but I can't seem to find anything about running the same the LP's, ad, copies, and pictures on a different account.

I had a campaign that was doing well and was in the middle of scaling.

Does this ban mean I shouldn't use the same LP's (on a different domain), ad copies, or pictures?

You're fine.

People rip lp's, ad copies, pics all the time. Just use a different domain(maybe server/ip) and you'll be fine.

I use the same url(s) as I had on my banned account without any problems

If you're going to make a new account, make sure you use a new account coupon. Might as well get something for free from facebook since they banned you, right?

I'll PM you a coupon code.

Good luck with the new account.

Thanks for the help

It's good to know that the campaign isn't totally lost - and I'm going to use different domains just in case

@Z6: That would be so awesome, thanks a lot man

Be careful about using coupons. They aren't meant for affiliates in general and they monitor accounts with coupons closely to see how they are being used. They are meant for small businesses in general, at least in my experience.

I know i had that problem once when I used a Visa small business $200 coupon I found on the visa facebook page, but I never had an issue with any of the coupons that facebook puts in their ads in trade magazines. I've only ever used the ones out of Internet Retailer though (besides that visa coupon) so I'm going off my experience when I say that. The account I had the $200 visa business coupon on was banned when I submitted my first ads, but they told me that it was because the ToS when I accepted that coupon claimed that it was for small business use and only could be used to promote a business, not an affiliate offer.

one of my account was banned as well few days ago, I hope this one will not be banned. Keeping a really low profile for now. As for LP, yes I use the same LP format no problem. Just use different domain

@adityan

Did you use all of the same ads as well? And they got approved already?

also I should mention with tracking.....you can CNAME a alias over your tracker and it looks like a diff domain.....its very easy to do.....and it looks like a new domain.....because its a DNS setting and not a redirect......

I have done this many times (esp with cpvlab) with no issue......

What was the reason they gave you for banning your account?

but cnamed domain still resolve into the old ip... if they dig further, there is the catch

yes but shared ips are very common among servers.....just saying i have done this with no issues and i cant see it becoming one.....because prob 30% or more of the stuff I see on Fb comes from some kinda shared hosting......read morz below

I used a FB coupon with one of my accounts. and I can't max out the $250 spend to raise the daily spend. It took like a whole month just to get it to $250. I will not be using a FB coupon on any of my new accounts, or paypal.

Better to just use a credit card. I have 3 other accounts with different credit cards. I was able to increase the spending limit alot faster on those accounts.

Thanks for the information man.

Are all of your credit cards using the same billing address?

And have you created all of those accounts on the same IP address?

Couple credit cards are the same address. One business credit card - different address.

Same IP.

I mostly use that (FB coupon + paypal - linked to debit card) fb account for testing anywayz. Mostly for more aggressive stuff. It's probably gonna be canned pretty soon lol. I recieved how many warning messages already. I just run/test the borderline stuff in that account, gather & save the data - then delete the ads. rinse and repeat.
