Introduction

Ad disapprovals can derail your marketing campaigns and cost you valuable time and money. The good news? Most disapprovals are preventable with the right approach.

The 10 Prevention Strategies

1. Know the Policies

Before creating any ad, familiarize yourself with Meta's advertising policies. Key areas to understand:

  • Prohibited content
  • Restricted content
  • Targeting restrictions
  • 2. Use Clear, Honest Language

    Avoid:

  • Exaggerated claims ("The #1 best product ever!")
  • Misleading statements
  • Unsubstantiated results
  • 3. Review Your Images Carefully

    Common image issues include:

  • Before/after comparisons
  • Excessive skin exposure
  • Shocking or sensational content
  • 4. Check Your Landing Pages

    Your landing page must:

  • Match your ad claims
  • Function properly
  • Not contain prohibited content
  • 5. Verify Your Business

    A verified business account has more credibility and may receive faster reviews.

    6. Start with Smaller Audiences

    New ads targeting broad audiences may get more scrutiny. Start focused and expand.

    7. Use A/B Testing

    Test variations to find what works while staying compliant.

    8. Document Everything

    Keep records of your claims and their sources for appeal purposes.

    9. Monitor Competitor Ads

    See what's working for others in your space while staying original.

    10. Use Compliance Tools

    Tools like ComplyAI can catch issues before submission.

    Prevention is always better than cure when it comes to ad disapprovals. Implement these strategies to keep your campaigns running smoothly.
