What (summary)
This project is targeted to allow promoted wiki pages to be displayed on AboutUs's main page as well as category and portal pages. Promoteme clients will buy the right to have their wiki pages put under the spotlight in return for a specific price. This will have a side effect of generating traffic for these promoted pages.
Logos plus small descriptive text of pages being spotlighted will appear on an image ticker tape similar to youtube's currently watched videos. Another example can be found at go2web20.
Why this is important
- Engagement: This will allow us to keep our promotme customers in the loop.
- Marketing: By displaying these pages on select high-traffic AboutUs pages, we can showcase our promoteme pages to the prospective clients.
- Revenue: This will generate a promising source of revenue for AboutUs from promoteme customers. These are the people who showed interest in our previous offering and will be more willing to take try this out.
DoneDone
- Provide an interface that allows users(for now only sysops) to add/remove pages that will be put under the spotlight.
- Create a spotlight wizard that houses information on the spotlighted pages.
- Create a mechanism to easily embed this wizard on a particular wiki page.
Steps to get to DoneDone
-
Create a migration to include the following table:- spotlight_pages(id, page_logo_src, page_link, page_info)
