Facebook Flyers. Not too long ago, these were the hot item for many marketers. Then they realized that Facebook is incredibly restrictive, and ban ads at the drop of a hat.
This is a somewhat comical piece describing one marketer’s experience trying to give Facebook flyers a second chance.

Meet Available Christians? Are you serious? Yikes, guess the secret lies in your wording here, LOL. No matter their boiler plate list of "offenses" - they probably thought it was innuendo but were too hampered by their own "spam fighter" tech crap to express it properly.Of course it’s utterly inane, but how about having a go at "Meet Devout Christians" or "Meet Friendly Christians"? (Not that I’d expect them to convert any better on FB, but that’s another story, of course.)So ok, if boner pills will work, how about leveraging a combination of both, maybe "Xtian Boners", "Da Lord’s Boners" or something? :)Cripes, what a prime waste of attention economy resources this entire FB outfit is. Most of the time, anyway...Anyway, funny story, thanks.
Anytime Fantomaster :-)I mean, I figured "Available" is the least explicit way of saying these people are single, without using the actual word "single" (which is on the facebook list of words that will make your ad have a 20+ minute delay before showing, pending manual review).Cripes! They allow dating, so I cannot for the life of me thing of what else to say"Meet Christians who would not be opposed to a completely emotional relationship if you happen to bond on a special(non-physical) level"? Ehhh wait. Your title has to be really short. And I’m not positive you can use parentheses. Oy.My head hurts just thinking about it.Oh yeah, and thanks Fadi!
Oh man — this happened to me just yesterday. I ran a campaign for the travel company I worked for, and within an hour it was banned… Sure, I used the word TRAVEL in uppercase, fine. And it had a picture of a couple snorkeling (omg! their backs are showing!) So I tweaked it… they havent banned my new one yet. … then again, overall, NO ONE has clicked on it once yet, and theres a few thousand page views. I’m really wondering the quality of these ads. Glad I’m paying per click, versus impression.
