Today’s quick tip, you can get a head start in marketing your event before you’re ready to start taking registrations. There are some benefits in doing this:
- Once your event is published, search engines will start crawling the Competition Corner site. This create that organic search result if someone were to google your event
- It’s a great way to start creating that buzz and anticipation. We always see a line up of Athlete’s watching the countdown timer tick down to the last second to try to register before your event sells out!
Here’s what you need to do:
- Create your event
- Set your registration date to a future date
- Publish your event
What you’ll see on the event list are 2 things:
- Your event will show when registration opens in the events list
- Your event landing page will have a countdown timer in place of the Registration button. When that timer expires, it’ll automatically change to a “Register” button.
