“Your advertising account has been disabled for suspicious activity.”
These are dreaded words no one wants to see when logging into an advertising account on any network, and as I have had relative success advertising on Facebook, this was especially gutting for me to see in my account after waking up one morning.
While this could be yet another sign that playing in someone else's sandbox is a bad idea, I was determined to get my account reinstated because, well, advertising on Facebook simply works for my blogs.
So in this one, I wanted to share what happened and the surprisingly simple steps I used to get my Facebook advertising account reinstated.
Note: For full clarity, I should say that my pages worked fine for conventional posts and organic traffic, but rather only my ability to pay for advertising was disabled.
