In order to create a Linkvertise post, you will be required to set details that describe your post and advertise it at the same time.
When creating a post, you have the option to either select the visibility option and list your post on our discovery platform for improved visibility or, alternatively, go for a quicker creation and leave it deactivated.
If you choose to activate visibility, you'll need to set a description. But what are the benefits of doing so? We can tell you – a lot!
Enable visibility to publish your post on our discovery platform
By enabling the visibility option for your post, you'll be able to publish your post on our discovery platform, meaning everybody on the platform can search for your post and discover it. If users search for keywords used in your title or description - you are required to set both when creating a post with visibility - they'll be able to find your post.
If the option is deactivated, users need the Linkvertise-URL to find your post and open it.
How to write a brilliant description
It is important to know that the position within the search results is very relevant. The first three results get around 60% of all clicks for that specific search term.
Setting a proper title
The title is a very important element for ranking high within the Linkvertise search results. Firstly, it should include the search-term (main keyword). You should additionally ensure, that it sounds interesting and makes people want to click it.
If its clicked quite often compared to other “competitor” posts for your topic, you will be ranked before them. Furthermore, the rating for the specific posts is counted. Linkvertise Members can rate each post. That’s why you should make sure the title actually describes what users can expect. Otherwise, there will be a lot of dislikes and your post won’t show up in the top search results any more.
A superb description
The description is a little underrated, but a very relevant factor as well. We detect the context of your post within the description. This means we try to understand which other search terms your post might be useful for and it will show up there as well. Also it will provide further information to the visitors. It will build trust and people tend to click on your post instead of others. It’s worth being creative. Your description should contain of at least 100 characters.
Adding a visual representation
If you plan to share your post on your YouTube channel, it will be useful to integrate the URL to your YouTube video inside the SEO-Description as well. It’s not only building trust. It is also a direct factor for better ranking. Another benefit is the extra attention for your video.
Approval process: What happens after creating a post
After creating a post with visibility enabled, our Content Moderation team will review your post including your description. In your dashboard, you'll see a little eye-icon indicating the current state of your post and whether it's been already reviewed and listed.
The icon colors indicate four states:
- Orange: Our moderation team hasn't reviewed your post just yet. Don't worry, they will review it shortly.
- Green: Good news! After positive review, your post has been listed on our discovery platform - users can now search for it and discover it.
- Black: Visibility is disabled for your post, that's why it isn't listed. Change your mind? No problem, just go back and edit the respective post and activate the visibility option!
- Red: The details you set or the type of content you wanted to share aren't compliant with our guidelines, that's why our moderator team disallowed your post to be listed on our discovery platform.
