Option 1 - Website doesn’t meet community standards
As one of the biggest social media platforms, Facebook has developed its own community standards. The most common reason why a website URL is blocked is that it doesn’t follow these standards, so make sure to check them thoroughly.
If you are sure that your website doesn't violate any of them, or you have removed content that Facebook would find inappropriate, it is very easy to remove this block.
What you need to do is click on let us know and ask for a review:
This will lead you to a form where you can submit a short message explaining why your site should be unblocked:
Once you have submitted this form, in most cases it will take up to a few days until Facebook reviews your report.

If you are not experienced in website development, in order to fix an issue like this, we highly recommend searching for help from developers or at specialized forums. For example, check out this awesome developer’s oriented forum – StackOverflow. It is a great place to get development support.

Now you can share your website with your friends, or even promote your business all across the globe 😊
