Recommend Flattr to users who are most likely to want to help creators
Background
As we are continuously working on getting new creators and contributors to join Flattr, we could recommend it in a similar way as we recommend Adblock Browser.
What to change
- Add Flattr promotion notification
- Type: information
- Target to ~0.5% of US-English users
- Two variants with different messages for A/B testing
- Distinct links to measure its impact
- Make notification active when user navigates to wikipedia.org (using URL filters)
- Only show notification on relevant tabs (i.e. the ones containing a page from wikipedia.org)
- Make notification inactive when all relevant tabs have been closed (optional)
Suggested changes (old)
Add a new notification to recommend Flattr
- Message could be something along the lines of "Help out creators like this one all over the web with Flattr"
- Target it to users who are most likely to contribute to Flattr and/or who visit creator pages (e.g. show notification in popup when watching a video on YouTube)
Example notification
{
"id": "sticky-1",
"type": "information",
"title": "My title",
"message": "My message",
"urlFilters": [
"||wikipedia.org^$document"
]
}
