What are Promoters?
Promoters are the tools that allow visitors to navigate your Content Experiences – Content Tracks, Templated Experiences, Content Playlists, and Website Tools Content Experiences – to encourage them to view additional recommended content.
Think of promoters as the guides through an Experience; the promoters you use determine how and when content will be presented to visitors.
Note
|
The ability to customize promoters is split into Appearances, Languages, and Links and Sharing. You can also configure how promoters appear and behave on individual Content Experiences, providing you with another level of customization. |
Why do you use Promoters?
Promoters allow you to plan exactly how your visitors will interact with and move through your Content Experiences. The ability to customize promoters ensures that you maintain consistent branding, and makes it easy to mix-and-match various appearance, language, and sharing settings to create unique content assets that reflect the goals of specific campaigns.
Note
|
If you are using Web Promoters you can customize the look and feel the same way as promoters in Content Experiences. Create and apply an appearance and a language. |
