Intent Clicks: Editorial Guidelines
In order to maintain high-quality and relevant content for our readers, we ask that advertisers comply with our editorial guidelines.
- Product name must contain no more than 100 characters
- Product name must only contain the name of the specific product. No descriptive copy will be allowed in the product name field
- Ad description must contain no more than 500 characters
- No portion of product or ad descriptions may appear in all caps unless in the case of a common acronym or initialism
- Referring to a competitor company or product name is not allowed
- No portion of product or ad descriptions may contain emojis or special characters
- Ad descriptions and names cannot include links to your website or other marketing site, a phone number, email address, physical address, social media handle or any other means of contacting the vendor directly
- We will reject listings that include claims that cannot be objectively proven: a common example would be ” Product X is the best solution on the market”
While the following recommendations are not required, we have found that they can bring improved performance for intent clicks programs.
- Landing page URL: we recommend including UTMs to track performance, or at the very minimum, providing a unique link for our campaigns
- Landing page recommendations: high performing landing pages typically include a simple, compelling headline and clear calls to action
- If you offer multiple products, or if your product name differs from your company name, you may consider including your company name in the ad description.
- We are happy to provide an evaluation of your landing pages upon request.
