@massimocw Been looking for a tool like this for awhile now. Any chance you'll be able to sort by some sort of metric of success (e.g. likes), even if not a perfect measure?
Massimo Chieruzzi
@ryanstuczynski No, the ads are submitted by users around the world, we don't have access to any performance metric!

Hey Product Hunters, we’re super excited to finally release to the public this tool we’ve been playing with internally for a while! The Facebook Ads Gallery is the largest free collection of Facebook Ads. It’s great for inspiration and see how others (including your competitors) advertise on Facebook. We hope you’ll love it and we’ll keep adding hundreds of Ads every week! Happy to answer any question you have! PS: Want to try out AdEspresso?

@massimocw This is awesome...you should follow up with a FAIL gallery, to keep people out of the badlands.
Massimo Chieruzzi
guys, FYI our friends at Facebook asked us to put it off-line while they double-check on the Policy compliance. !!UPDATE!! We've sorted that out with Facebook, everything was policy compliant, WE'RE BACK ONLINE :)

@massimocw See, they really do "move fast and break things" :)

@iamunr @massimocw Hey Paul! Update > we're back online :) :)
Josue Gio
Awesome! Are included all the viral websites with Click Bating ads? :)
Massimo Chieruzzi
@josuegio The ads are sent from our users all around the world. There's a mix of everything and we're adding new ones every day. To find click baiting ads I'd filter for objective: content promotion :)
Andrew Torba
I'd be really surprised if Facebook let this come back online (https://developers.facebook.com/...)
Armando Biondi
@torbahax Hey Andrew! Update > we're back online :) :)
Andrew Torba
@armandobiondi oh are these just screenshots of ads? I thought this was data coming from the ads api at first (didn't get to see it before FB made you take it down.) Now I'm surprised they made you take it down at all, congrats on getting it back up and running! Do you see any of the brands included having a problem with it, or do you think they will see it as a form of free advertising?
Kintan Brahmbhatt
Any way to know the facebook relevance score of the ads?
Massimo Chieruzzi
@kintan nope sorry :(
Bas Prass
Any news? Would really like to see this back on the webs.
Armando Biondi
@basprass Hey Bas! Update > we're back online :) :)
Camille Taylor
Now there's no excuses for brands of any size to have unattractive ads :) This is awesome.

I get a The Facebook Ads Gallery… … Will be back soon
Massimo Chieruzzi
@bjoern2000 Sorry about that, our friends at Facebook asked us to take it down temporary as we check a couple of things :)
@mager
@massimocw @bjoern2000 What did FB say?
Massimo Chieruzzi
@mager @bjoern2000 yes of course :) they want to check how we get the ads to be sure we're not scraping or using Fake Facebook users ... which we are not of course!
Massimo Chieruzzi
@robinraszka @bjoern2000 LOL :) Of course we have a product to sell, but we think this is a super useful tool for every marketer and that's why we made it public and not just for our customers.

@massimocw Can't you put the gallery back up, or atleast give us some useful content (ie. a video on what your service does? or a newsletter subscribe form so I know when the gallery is back?)
Paul Shapiro
This would be awesome, but I'm actually having a hard time finding relevant ads. It might be better if there was more of an open-ended "explore" function.
Karthik Kamalakannan
A site like this was probably my most searched in Google for the past one month. Thanks for bringing this @armandobiondi
Saijo George
went there saw this : "The Facebook Ads Gallery… Will be back soon " came back here to down vote this and found out that FB asked forced you to take this down. It might be a good idea to let people know that it's down for that reason on that landing page.
Armando Biondi
@saijo_george Hey Saijo! Update > we're back online :) :)
Chris Scott
Sucks you had to take it down. Hope they rule in your favor.
Armando Biondi
@chrisgscott Hey Chris! Update > we're back online :) :)
David Iwanow
I do love the idea https://www.whatrunswhere.com runs a similar idea for display and text ads but they also track how frequently they find that ad so you can start to gauge which ads are performing well as they show that ad more frequently... Also capturing details on what page or website was the destination of the ad is also valuable. Sadly when I went to check it out I got this sad message... The Facebook Ads Gallery… … Will be back soon... Not a great first experience with the product
Camille Taylor
@davidiwanow Facebook asked us to put it off-line while they double-check on the Policy compliance. Sorry about that bad experience, hopefully we can have it live again very soon!
Massimo Chieruzzi
@davidiwanow Sorry about that, our friends at Facebook asked us to take it down temporary as we check a couple of things :)

@davidiwanow Hey David! Update > we're back online :) :)
Patrick Rogers
Super helpful!
Massimo Chieruzzi
@mrpatrickrogers Thanks Patrick, glad you liked it!
Ryan Abrams
Sounds like an awesome idea! I was just trying to Google good FB Ads examples for inspiration so this is perfect! I hope it comes back soon because I'd love to browse the gallery. Great job nevertheless!
Armando Biondi
@ryabrams Hey Ryan! Update > we're back online :) :)
Julian Lozano
As a designer who works in marketing materials especially facebook ads, this helps out a lot!
Reggie Paquette
@massimocw Ahh did FB make you guys take this down permanently? It's not live anymore
Lorenzo Fiori
A powerful tool to perform advertising on Facebook! Well done guys ;)
