Hi, Please check this image: http://i62.tinypic.com/f1idl3.jpg This is screenshot of my contest page content. I understand asking people to share something as a "Entry Qualification" is not allowed. Here I asked them to SHARE a post to increase winning chances. I want to know if this is OK? Thanks
Nope you're not. If you see here on the Facebook Page Guidelines: https://www.facebook.com/page_guidelines.php The 3rd point under III and E clearly states it's prohibited: Promotions may be administered on Pages or within apps on Facebook. Personal Timelines and friend connections must not be used to administer promotions (ex: “share on your Timeline to enter” or “share on your friend's Timeline to get additional entries”, and "tag your friends in this post to enter" are not permitted). That said, I used to run marketing events on Facebook Pages when it was still prohibited to have "Likes" as contest entries. At that time we weighted the possibility of getting caught and terminated and found it was pretty low since we still saw many companies doing it and we didn't have any major competitors that might report us. But I don't really see such contests anymore so Facebook could've gotten stricter after they loosened their terms.
