Article Summary

What is a PhotoStory?

A PhotoStory is available on our Platinum service. It allows you to overlay quotes from your best reviews over the first 3 photos on your profile.

The quotes appear one after the other for around 3 seconds. When a parent or guardian clicks on one of the quotes, it takes them directly to the review it came from.

Why add PhotoStories?

PhotoStories allow you to place some of the great things said about your setting to the top of your profile, right in front of the visitor’s attention. If a visitor engages with the quote, they are taken to the review in its entirety and there is an increased possibility of them reading your other reviews.

PhotoStories offer you the possibility to show your setting in its best possible light, allowing the parents or guardians to determine whether your seting is right for their child. Get the PhotoStories right and you should attract more enquiries.

How to add a PhotoStory

How do I create a good Photostory?

  1. Make sure you select a snappy passage from the review. You only have a 50 character space on your photo.
  2. Ensure the quote comes from one of your best reviews and that the rest of the review is as good as the quote. Remember that if the quote is clicked, the parent is taking to that review in its entirety.
  3. Add more than one PhotoStory. Get as many good quotes in front of the parents as possible to grab their attention
