Today I was scrolling on Facebook, as usual, my daily routine, and found a post regarding the blocked URL on Facebook & Instagram.
I'm also facing the same problem, although I have searched through Google, and YouTube for the solution for blocked URLs on Facebook and Instagram but surprisingly couldn't find the exact solution in spite of many videos on YouTube.
As a habit of not giving up, I developed ways to promote my URL hope you may find some solutions effective & worth adopting although it is more time-consuming.

Thanks to Facebook --hahaha

All these processes are time-consuming and every time you need to create a link for every post hence the best solution is to create a link landing page.

15 Change Domain
Although it's a difficult one since you might have added many links on different platforms.
By changing the domain name you have to change the domain on all the platforms you have shared your URL.
Since I'm using a free subdomain hence I created many sites in different niches. Surprisingly many of them were been blocked by Facebook and Instagram on day one.
With frustration and giving bad words to Facebook, I changed many subdomain names of almost all sites except Fun Funds.
I noticed that by changing the domain name after doing keyword research few of my sites started getting more organic traffic.
Although one of my top sites with good organic traffic started declining traffic and still I'm not able to get the previous numbers of users.
Hence take this step only when drastically needed.
SUM UP
Our main aim is to generate traffic to our blog it can be from one platform or from various platforms.
