What are Link requirements for adding or editing Venues?
Venue Pages on Viberate are equipped with social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) that lead to venues' official channels. Links to venue channels are very important since they provide additional information value to a Venue Page.
Here you'll find the general rules for adding/editing links, link requirements for each channel specifically as well an example for each channel. You can also observe how links should look on this Page.
GENERAL RULES
When adding links, follow these requirements:
- All links should be active and display content.
- Submit only Venue owned profiles/pages.
- Insert the shortest URL form possible. See the example below:
https://www.facebook.com/cvetlicarna.mediapark (correct)
https://www.facebook.com/pg/cvetlicarna.mediapark/about/?ref=page_internal (incorrect)
LINK REQUIREMENTS WITH EXAMPLES:
Facebook
Should be an official Venue page, not a personal profile/fan page/auto-generated profile. The content has to be recent - the last post should be max. 3 years old.
Example: https://www.facebook.com/klubk4
