So you've created an story, and now you want people to find it. 🕵🏻♀️
In this tutorial, we'll show you how to create links and QR Codes.
In the top right corner of the 'QR Codes' tab, press the 'Create QR code' button.
Let's go over the settings.
Name
Especially if you're creating multiple links / QR Codes, this is an important field.
By properly naming them, you can see which campaign, post, or other channel is performing the best.
Geographic coordinates
Used for physical stories, here you can track which QR Codes, on what location, are performing the best.
Only use this if you're placing QR Codes on different physical locations (such as out-of-home advertisements).
Custom redirect
This is very valuable. Even after you've printed, posted or otherwise distributed the QR Code, you can change where it navigates to.
Say for instance you've printed 1,000 flyers with a QR Code on it, and later you want to redirect it to a different story.
Then simply paste the URL of the new story in this field and Voilà.
Style
We currently support 3 different QR code styles.
Color
Change the color of the QR code by clicking the Color field. We advise using a color that contrasts with the background. Black on white works best for scanning.
Background
The default background for the QR code is transparent, but you can choose any color you want.
QR Code analytics
Below, we see an example of a published QR Code.
Underneath the QR code and link, you see the Analytics data. 👀
Check back frequently to see how your activation is performing.
