这是第一次，Facebook开始接受网上赌博公司的广告。在过去，Facebook作为一个流行的大型的网络社交平台，是禁止所有赌博广告。因为Facebook网络社交平台反对网络赌博。但最近Facebook网络社交平台改变了它的规则，开始允许网上赌博公司在该社交平台上投放赌博广告。

　　一个国家的在线赌场，扑克室，赌场目录，庄家，彩票等网络赌博广告现在都可以投放到Facebook社交平台上。Facebook网络社交平台广告准则的变化使其他网络社交平台的广告准则也发生了许多其他变化。Facebook网络社交平台之所以最终决定允许网上赌博公司在社交平台上投放赌博广告，是因为Facebook可以从中获得一笔相当客观的广告费收入。

　　但所有出现在Facebook网站上的赌博广告都必须经过授权。此外，在美国的Facebook网络社交平台依然禁止投放赌博，因为美国目前依然没有很好地解决在线赌博行业的合法性问题。

　　Facebook为网上赌博公司提供一个巨大的广告机会。Facebook作为一个大型的网络社交平台，目前已超过800万注册用户，其中超过半数每天登录Facebook。美国的网上赌博公司因为一些政策性问题而无法在Facebook上投放广告，这些网上赌博公司纷纷表示了失望，但结果并不像你想象的那样糟糕，因为 Facebook超过75％的用户生活在美国以外。在Facebook上投放广告费用成本很高，最低成本为30,000美元。小型的赌博公司可能不想花那么多钱，但它是一个帮助赌场成长的好的方法。

　　Online Gambling Ads on Facebook

　　For the first time, in some locations Facebook is now accepting advertisements from online gambling companies. In the past, the popular social network banned all gambling advertising, because the company was anti-gambling, except for the number of free gambling apps that people love to play on there. The company recently changed its rules, though, and gambling ads are allowed.

　　In a number of countries, online casinos, poker rooms, casino directories, sportsbooks, lotteries and more can now advertise on Facebook with their targeted ads. The changing of their advertising guidelines comes on the heels of many other changes to the site, including new chat features, the new timeline, the new feed and more. It seems that Facebook has finally decided the revenue from gambling ads can be a big source of cash.

　　All gambling advertisements must be authorized by Facebook prior to the ads appearing on the website. The gambling ads are still banned from Facebook in the United States, due to concerns over the legality of the industry.

　　Facebook provides a huge advertising opportunity for businesses. The social network currently has more than 800 million active users, with more than half of them logging into Facebook every day. Losing Americans is disappointing for the companies, but it’s not as bad as you might think. More than 75% of Facebook’s users live outside the United States. Advertising on Facebook is not cheap. The minimum cost for a Facebook ad campaign is $30,000. The smaller gambling companies might not want to spend that kind of money, but it can be a good way to help casinos grow.
