Share Your Submission URL
When you set up your new calendar, one of the first things you’ll want to do is share your event submission URL. This link allows local event organizers and community members to easily submit events to your calendar, providing you with a steady stream of relevant, exclusive content to populate your site and publications.
How to Find Your Submission URL
To find your unique event submission URL, log into your calendar admin panel and navigate to the “Get Code” section. Here, you’ll find the submission link along with other embed codes for your calendar and content widgets. You can see the step-by-step visual guide here.
Where to Share Your Submission URL
To maximize the visibility of your submission link, be sure to include it wherever you share information about upcoming events. Here are a few key places to consider:
- Site Navigation: A prominent placement can really boost submissions! See below an image of how one of our top partners places their "Add Your Event" button at the top of their navigation page with a colorful display to drive submissions.
- Email Newsletters: Include the link (or a clickable button) in any newsletters you send out about upcoming events. This allows readers to quickly navigate to your calendar and submit their own events with a single click.
- Print Publications: If you publish a print calendar, add a QR code that links directly to your submission URL. Readers can then scan the code with their phones to access the event submission page.
- Event Pages on Your Website: If you have individual event pages or a section dedicated to local events, include the submission link there. A visible “Submit Your Event” button can encourage more event organizers to contribute.
- Social Media: Promote your submission link on social media platforms to reach a wider audience. This could be a post on Facebook, a pinned tweet on Twitter, or a link in your Instagram bio.
By sharing your submission URL in all the right places, you’ll build a more dynamic and engaging calendar while fostering stronger connections with your local community.
