Hi there,

I have a Facebook buy/sell group with over 25,000 members and 400/500 posts per day. I have an OSclass website of the same name, but in spite of anything I do, I can't get more than 1% of those ads to be published also in the OSClass website. Do you have any suggestion/trick/tip/plugin whatever that can help to drive traffic from a Facebook buy/sell group to an OSClass website?

Greetings

Yeah, Fb sales groups are making all classifieds sites go byebye.. it's a monster. No hope in doing this anymore I guess. I wish there's a solution to beat those groups.

I am using a lot smaller facebook group (with only 7k members) for buy & sell, but it is very specific. I am using group cover photo for advertise my classifieds site and post every new ad into this group (via dlvr.it).

You can also actually force users to post ads into your website first with locking group to "Only admins can post", and leave notification (via cover photo), that users can only post into this group if they publish ad into your website first, and than you will post it into your group for them.

In both ways, facebook groups are not our enemy if we are using them right. In my case, I got over 60% of visitors via FB. ;)

I tried something similar to that and a few users uploaded to the website, but most of them just moved to another group

It is not legal to copy ads FROM or TO Facebook.

Also i think about Facebook, you must deeply understand that you can't compete them. Accept it and move on with your site.

Stealing ads from or to some other website is not the way to go.

Aficionado@ I am ready to pay if you help me to do this, creating a plugin or something else,
This is my risico, I do not suppose that it is not legal. I created this FB group, I am managing this FB group...
Normally I can do also copy / paste...But this is time consuming...That's way I need a plugin or something to make easier to pull content from FB groups.

Sorry, i'm not a programmer :)

What i told you is from my experience with FB. I was auto-posting to FB topics from some local forums/blog i run, and i got banned once.

Maybe you can do it with some RSS feed autoposter for FB. Search it a little bit.

I have searched, many alternatives to post from web pages, blogs etc to FACEBOOK, but no info I have found to post from FB to web sites, blogs etc...

I have found some articles / video training to pull news, texts from WORDPRESS page to another wordpress page. Without programming knowledge I can not modiyf those codes upon my wishes.
