Hi I'm newbie in FB marketing. I just want to add relevant users at Fb but problem is when I search in my niche and send friend request to other people some of them accept and some of them reject. So my account gets disable to send requests to new users some time. is there any safe way to increase friends on FB ??

A short diagnosis and safe plan anchored to platform rules and practical steps.

Facebook often imposes a temporary block on sending friend requests when many requests are sent in a short time, when requests go unanswered, or when they are marked unwelcome. That automated anti-spam behavior explains the intermittent “disabled to send requests” symptom reported by and is exactly the risk behind purchased followers or automated friending flagged by . Blocks are temporary and cannot be lifted early. (facebook.com)

Immediate troubleshooting (do these before any new outreach):

  1. Stop sending requests and pause any automation.
  2. Review “Sent Requests” and cancel old pending requests to reduce backlog.
  3. Remove suspicious third‑party apps, change the account password and enable two‑factor authentication.
  4. Wait for the temporary restriction to expire; attempting more requests during the block can extend it.
    If the account becomes disabled rather than temporarily blocked, follow Facebook’s support/appeal flows. (How to view and cancel sent requests is documented in Facebook Help). (luke.lol)

Safer, scalable strategy for growing relevant contacts: use features built for public reach instead of mass friending. Convert commercial outreach to a Facebook Page or enable Professional Mode on a profile to get follower tools and business features; Pages include an “Invite friends” flow and Meta business tools (insights, ad options, Shops) that scale without friending strangers. Converting or creating a Page is the recommended route if the account is being used for marketing rather than just personal networking. (facebook.com)

Tactical checklist: craft 3 content pillars (short niche videos, curated news, community Q&A), pin a clear CTA, seed the Page with existing contacts and partner cross‑promotions, and run small targeted ad sets or lookalike audiences to attract genuinely interested people. Do not buy friends or use mass‑friending tools: those behaviors trigger the same blocks that caused this thread. For profile limits and the professional/follower alternative, see Facebook’s guidance on friend limits and Professional Mode. (facebook.com)

wow, facebook has mechanisms in place to detect people buying "friends" now?
You're violating the TOS and being punished for it, tough luck. If people really like you, they'll find you.

If you need to pay people to be your "friend", you're not worth having as a friend.

There is only one simple rules to get more Facebook friends. Post relevant contents, news, events, information on your facebook timeline or fan page. People from your business niche will automatically send you request or follow your pages. Initially It will take some time but once they find your post useful, they will get back to you. So good Luck.

If you want to increase the FB friends then send the friend request to your friends. Send only 5 to 10 friend requests to your friends.
