Facebook Pages Shadowban

Discussions Help Center
1

Hello,

I’ve recently come to the realization that I am shadowbanned on Facebook.

I am able to create new pages from new FB profiles but am no longer able to from the FB profiles I already have.

Even when creating new FB profiles all pages I created from those profiles are getting little to no reach (0-5 views per reel)

I believe my device or IP address is shadowbanned.

I know the content is not an issue as we have launched many pages in the past and they were successful in getting organic traffic right away.

Does anybody know how to resolve or workaround this issue?

I have also tried using proxies and VPNs but they don’t seem to circumvent the problem.

Dealing with a shadowban on Facebook can be challenging, especially when it’s not clear why it happened. Here are some steps you could take to try and resolve or work around this issue:

  1. Review Facebook’s Community Standards: Make sure all your content complies with Facebook’s rules and guidelines. Sometimes, even unintentional violations can trigger a shadowban.
  2. Appeal Process: If you believe the shadowban is a mistake, you can try contacting Facebook support or using the appeal process in Facebook’s Help Center. Be concise and polite in your communication.
  3. Limit Activity: If you’ve been very active (like creating multiple accounts or pages in a short period), this might trigger Facebook’s spam filters. Try reducing your activity for a while.
  4. Change Content Strategy: Even if your content was successful in the past, algorithms change. Try varying your content to see if different types of posts get better reach.
  5. Technical Workarounds: Since using proxies and VPNs hasn’t worked, consider:
  • Using a different device to create a new account.
  • Changing your internet connection (like using a different Wi-Fi network).
  1. Build a New Audience: Start building a new audience slowly. Engage with other pages and groups genuinely (without spamming) to increase visibility.
  2. Consider Alternative Platforms: If Facebook is consistently not yielding results, consider diversifying your social media presence to other platforms where your content might have a better reach.
  3. Professional Assistance: If the issue persists and is critical for your business or brand, consider consulting with a digital marketing expert who specializes in social media platforms.

Remember, resolving a shadowban can sometimes be a process of trial and error. Patience and adapting your strategy as you learn more about what works and what doesn’t is key.
