Username: hdpnet, Server: Johnny, Main domain: wild103.heliohost.us

I was trying to promote my website on Facebook, and it said that it was
spam or something, does anybody know a workaround I can use to promote my
Helio host site on Facebook?

Yeah, Facebook sometimes gets all of the subdomains confused with each other. We used to allow users to have websites like wild103.heliohost.org, but Facebook didn't understand that wild103.heliohost.org was a user and heliohost.org was the hosting service, so when one person's Wordpress site got hacked, Facebook blocked all the subdomains including our main website from being posted on Facebook. It took over 6 months to get in contact with Facebook support and get that mess cleaned up so we stopped allowing users to create heliohost.org subdomains for that very reason, and instead forced all new users to use subdomains on heliohost.us or helioho.st.

History lesson aside, a workaround is you could buy a domain such as this one

https://heliohost.org/partners/namecheap/wild103.net

If you click that link it will use our affiliate link, which costs you nothing extra, and donates a few cents to us per purchase.

A free option we could try is we could add wild103.helioho.st to your account and you can test whether that domain can be shared on Facebook.
