Facebook bot catcher trouble? (5)

Facebook bot catcher trouble?

If ads lead to my funnel, and the first 'page' of this is a simple Javascript html file that basically tests for bots and then redirects on to the first real landing page, will I run into trouble with Facebook (and/or Google)?

If FB can detect the redirect its probable its gonna cause some strange issues lol, ad may go active and not run or higher cpms or even them changing the image of your ad to the cover photo of your fan page lol

I believe, you can remove that "if" because FB can detect redirects and they don't like it much. OP first test offers without bot trap and direct pixel tracking and if conversation rates shows too much bot traffic then test with bot trap and keep in mind fb is banning too much account lately and they don't like redirects!

Got it. Thanks. I'll remove it from the funnel for FB.

I guess I can put it in downstream in my funnel, once we get past the first page?

Does anyone know whether RevContent have the same thing?

Woah, looking at the funnel again, the very first node once the traffic has arrived is a rotator to split test four different landing pages.

(I'm using FunnelFlux)

I guess that will cause the same trouble with Facebook? And maybe RevContent? (The two traffic sources I was going to use on this.)
