Tools: What are WorldSupporter Starting Pages and how to create or use them?

What are WorldSupporter Starting Pages ('start magazines')?

In a Starting Page you can bring together all your information or items connecting to one subject of your choice. This tool offers the most space for self-determination on what information you want to show in which place.
A Starting Page will make it easier for visitors to find all your contributions and easier for you to advertise your content and inspire others.

Step 1: Log in and Create a new Starting Page
- To start a new Starting Page you only need to think of a title and some basic category tags.
- Write an introduction to your magazine in the textfield called 'body', this will provides visitors and search engines some guidance.
- You can save and edit your magazine whenever you like.
Step 2: Start to add content
- The tool allows you to write unique content or place pictures in the so called 'creative spaces'. The content you add at those places will only appear on this particular magazine.
- The second option is to use the so called 'resources' field. These fields allow you to place you earlier WorldSupporter contributions in your magazine.
- In addition to your own content you can also select contributions by other Supporters. To get those contributions in your 'resources' you need to go to those specific pages and click on the 'Save for later' button at the bottom of each contribution. Return to your page and it will appear in your resources list.
Step 3: Exposure
- To attract additional attention to your magazine you can add it to the 'resources' field of all contributions that you wrote and that relate to your magazine.
- When you have collected information or inspiration shared by other Supporters you can add a comment to their contribution and share your starting page (the author will receive an email as a notification of your comment).
