how to be a spammer on facebook ads
• keep placing facebook ads that have
been refused
• promoting spammy apps, adult
content, profanity, vulgarity
• promoting illegal activities
• promoting liquor, beer, wine, tobacco,
firearms, gambling
• promoting defamatory or hate
content / pages / groups
• religious fundamentalist content
• political content for commercial use
• use of webcams/surveillance
equipment for non legitimate use
• online non accredited educational
institutions that offer degrees
• promoting content that requires
credit card application

• don’t ask for friendship if you
represent a business. it sounds weird.
• don’t add friends without a proper
introduction or a welcome message.
always say who you are and
why / which topics you would like to
discuss with new friends.
• don’t abuse apps invitations – both
for business apps and even worst with
zombies / farms. this is spam.
• don’t abuse group invitations.
if your friends think your event is worth,
they’ll come. if they don’t answer, don’t
bomb them with reminders.
inspiration: facebook etiquette (dont’s)

• don’t use a user profile picture
with brands or commercial info.
FB is a network for real people,
not a catalogue of classified ads.
• don’t be a virtual user. besides
of being against FB TOS and
ground to lose the account, users
are always diffident when
interacting with avatars with
fake / business names.
• don’t publish private
conversations on users’ wall
making them public.
this is against the privacy.
use direct messages instead.

• don’t tag friends in embarrassing
photos or videos. this could impact
their privacy.
• don’t post unnecessary comments on
personal pictures that users upload,
such as family pictures.
• don’t make it a drama if an user
removes a comment or tag you
posted.
• don’t use facebook to create a
professional network, facebook is for
personal connections. for business
networking try other sites like linkedin
or xing instead.

digital rights vs. distribution
• facebook TOS
• RSS feeds
• creative commons
privacy vs. communication
• what privacy?
• tone of communication
• active participation
ethics vs. spam
• transparency
• opt-in / no spam
• listen, don’t shout
the dark side of social media marketing

what if your
company’s social
media accounts
gets disabled and
you lose all your
investments?

it’s time to start thinking about getting a
policy
