We appreciate the desire of authors to share their social media presence or personal websites when posting a resource on Ilmbank. To maintain a cohesive and user-friendly environment, we have established guidelines for linking:
1. You are allowed to post links to your social media platforms.
2. You are not allowed to post links to any external websites, including your own.
Why can’t I link off of Ilmbank from my quote area?
There are important considerations that led to the decision of not allowing external links in the quote area:
1. Enhancing User Experience:
Bringing educators to your store is a positive outcome. Once they are within the Ilmbank environment, they can seamlessly explore your valuable resources. Redirecting them away from the platform may interrupt their flow, potentially reducing the likelihood of returning.
2. Preserving SEO (Search Engine Optimisation):
Ilmbank is committed to enhancing the visibility of your store through improved SEO efforts. External links from the quote area can negatively impact the SEO of your pages. By refraining from linking off Ilmbank, you contribute to our collective efforts in promoting and facilitating the discovery of your store.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in adhering to these guidelines, ensuring a positive experience for both educators and authors within the Ilmbank community. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our support team.
