How to share links on Facebook without being banned

 

In this blog post, you will learn about how to share links on Facebook without being banned.

When many bloggers start blogging, they make this common mistake which I myself made and my link was blocked by Facebook before it was later unblocked.

Well it isn’t intentions, because we post it in other to get clicks and increase our blog traffic in that process of enjoying free traffic, then Facebook also bomb in with their message saying

{This link couldn’t be shared. because this link goes against our community standards. If you think this doesn’t go against our community standards let us know}.

After some time then they will also start blocking your previous post.

Then they will send you a message that looks like the one below.

So I will advise you to take your time and read this complete guide on how to post safely on Facebook so that you can post your links without being afraid of being banned by Facebook.

Here are some tips that will help you post your links on Facebook without being banned.

1. Shorten your URL( domains).

2. Verify your domain on Facebook.

3. Try spacing your post interval.

4. Do not leave a link on any post.

5. Create a Facebook page for your URL.

6. Make sure your site doesn't show illegal popups.

Explained how below.

1.Shorten your domain/URL

This is one of the most important tips on how to share links on Facebook safely. Talking about the shortening of URL,

shorten of URL isn’t any big deal, shorten of URL is simply copying the original post link and pasting it into any URL shortener and a new short link will be generated for you and it can be done using some free tools listed below.

 Recommended Tools

1. Google URL shortener chrome extension.

2. Bit.ly

2.Verify your domain on Facebook.

I normally advise every blogger or website owner to verify their website domain on Facebook, and verifying your domain is totally free and easy to do.

How to verify my website domain on Facebook.

Step1. Head over to business.facebook.com/owned-domain

Step2. Look at the left side of the screen and click on {Brand Safety} as shown below.

Once you click on it you will see a little drop-down menu as in the image below.

Once you see the drop-down menu click on domains as highlighted above.

After you’ve clicked on it then Facebook will automatically redirect you to a new page as shown below.

All you have to do is to click on {Add} as pointed by the image above. After you’ve clicked on it a popup will appear asking you to enter your domain as seen below.

Once you see this popup just enter your domain, and click on {Add domain} as shown below.

After you’ve clicked on it then Facebook will ask you to verify the domain using one of the following methods;

.By adding a  TXT record in your DNS configuration. This method is a bit tricky and it takes up to 72 hours to completely verify, so I will advise you to use the second method.

.By adding uploading an HTML file to your website. I recommend you use this method because it is easy to do and instant verification.

3.Try spacing your post interval.

When sharing links on Facebook or any other social media, I will advise you to post not more than five (5) links a day and after sharing this five wait for at least 3 days before posting a link from that same website.

Because if you post more than five, Facebook is going to see you as a spammer and they will ban your site.

4.Donot leave a link on any post.

I have seen a lot of bloggers leaving links on their Facebook post, so if you are among those doing it I will advise you to stop it,

Facebook doesn’t like it that’s why they allow us to delete the links after a preview has been generated from the link. This is why you should include either image or video on your blog post.

5.Create a Facebook page for your URL.

I normally advise bloggers to create a Facebook page for their website because it helps Facebook to recognise your link and also help your site SEO.
