What are Sponsored Posts?
Sponsored Posts are special posts on your social wall that aren’t filled with regular social content from your sources. Instead, you can upload specific images that you want to display there and have them show up on your wall periodically. Sponsored Posts offer a way to make money by offering sponsored placements for your event’s sponsors, for example. However, they’re also a versatile tool that can be used in various other ways.
Who can use Sponsored Posts?
Sponsored Posts are part of the Promotion Pack, which can be purchased as an add-on for all plans. Sponsored Posts are also included in our Enterprise plans and some legacy plans.
How are Sponsored Posts created?
To add a sponsored post to your social wall, go to Content > Sponsored Posts in your Walls.io account and "Enable Sponsored Posts".
Upload as many different pictures or videos as you want and set up intervals to define how often those sponsored posts will show up on your wall, e.g. “every n-the post is a sponsored post.” So, if you set the interval to 15 posts, every 15th post on your social wall will be a sponsored one.
To create a sponsored post, click on "Create Sponsored Post" in the Content > Sponsored Posts view. You will need to add some content (text or image or both). You can find further info about the image size and text length in this article.
When you're done setting up your social wall, just click on "Save". All the saved posts are listed under Content > Sponsored Posts. You can always edit or delete a Sponsored Post.
To create a sponsored video post, click on "Create Sponsored Video Post" in the Content > Sponsored Posts view. Just drag and drop your video to upload it to Walls.io.
The only accepted format is MP4. For your upload to be successful, the file size should not be higher than 250MB. You can also add more text, a link, and your location if you'd like to.
