White Hat Advertorials
Hi Everyone,
I am trying to be a good guy with Mark Zukenberg and see if I come out with some advertorial to submit FB that can be ok with their polices.
Anyone can maybe point me to some examples?
Is anyone happy to try something together?
Thank you!
Bye!

What niche are you thinking?
As long as everything is whitehat (honest, real claims, real testimonials, no crazy promises) you shouldn't have a problem. You could even purchase a paid post on a blog and promote to it so everything looks extra clean.

But the question is also: do they check the pages linked to the advertorial too? Or do they check the page linked in their ads only?

E-commerce, I'm talking on the flashlight, TrackR, stuff etc...
these kind of offers are really stable on FB ads and running on BIG volume.

Agree with the Queen (well, how could one not do so, ever!). Since most affiliates active in skincare and weight loss use very aggressive angles and landing pages that are against FB's t&c's it will be very hard to compete and make the typical offers work for you.
This said there is a smaller number of well-performing offers that FB considers okay. Those are usually VSLs for CPS offers. Why not ask your affiliate network (or the advertiser directly, if possible) for such offers and whether they can help you out with proven LPs that you can start with?

Its not about what anyone thinks. Its about the numbers working out ; )
And btw, as for advertiser and network relations -- try coming to Affiliate World Europe in Berlin next month. Plenty of guys going to be present there for sure...

diet and skincare are probably the hardest angles to run on fb...
if you truly are looking to do everything whitehat, i would suggest you hitup some facebook sales reps and explain the products/ads that you'll be using to them IN GREAT DETAIL before you get started, bc you'll probably be banned.
Just do a google search for "@sales.fb.com"

White-hat advertorials can work well on FB, and are allowed, more so for product owners than affiliates. You just need to be somewhat legitimate, a fake blog w/ Dr.Oz isn't going to cut it. Plenty of publications will write one on your behalf, but you will probably have to work through a PR agency.
Also(if you're a product owner) have you tried writing an advertorial on your own site? This also can work.
I know first-hand that all of these work VERY well on FB:

Thank you!

Agree with @jayo77, you need to write high quality content and about the FB guidelines, this is the only one a little bit conflictive:
Content leading to external landing pages that provide an unexpected or disruptive experience. This includes misleading ad positioning, such as overly sensationalized headlines, and leading people to landing pages that contain minimal original content and a majority of unrelated or low quality ad content.
Furthermore, a lot of viral websites are using advertising like revcontent or taboola to monetize their users and the ads shown are quite aggressive, but the quality of the content is high.
Have you tried to monetize just with the ads?

You mean doing arbitrage? If that I have never tried yet.

You can try products like flashlight and related which are white hat. Ad to a good content(no fake reviews or advertorial style) then on click to product checkout page.
