What are the link requirements for adding/editing venues?
Venue Pages are equipped with links to the official social media channels (Instagram, Twitter, etc.). These links are very important, as they add value to a Venue Page.
Find the general rules for adding/editing links, link requirements and examples for each channel below. See how links should look here.
GENERAL RULES:
When adding links, follow these requirements:
▪ All links should be active and display content.
▪ Submit only venue-owned profiles/pages.
▪ Insert the shortest URL form possible. See the example below:
