Facebook Ads 20% text in photos rule (3 posts)

  • Found an article that I thought was helpful to shed some light on the new 20% text in photos rule.  http://www.insidefacebook.com/2013/03/05/facebook-explains-how-20-text-overlay-policy-for-ads-is-enforced/

    Another thing to remember is that this affects promoted posts, Facebook Offers and sponsored story ads.  Has anyone been doing advertising lately?

  • we had  one  refused , it  was a picture  full of words….

  • Thanks @andrea-vahl

    I read that briefly earlier today but forgot where I saw it lol so cheers!

    The 20% deal is a real issue. I’m getting totally inconsistent feedback from the FB ads team. Heaps of ads are getting shut down that just aren’t 20% and then i have some ads in the campaign shut down whilst others in the same campaign identical image have been running for weeks!

    They need to release a public version of the program that does the auto scanning so you can run the image through before creating the ad.

    Their poor performance on this is costing me a lot of time and it is very frustrating. I agree with the policy (user experience is enhanced) but i don’t agree with how they are enforcing it at all.

    Thanks,

    Scott
