The Link Tile functionality lets you add free-form tiles that actually serve as link to other web pages. These tiles can be animated to be more eye-catching, appearing as though they are the reverse side to pieces of content from your feeds.

Link tiles can point to any URL you like; whether you choose to redirect your followers to your online store, your blog or literally any other webpage you can think of is completely up to you.

To add a Link Tile, click on the Link Tile tab in the left side drop down menu which appears once you expand the Curate tab, then tap the + symbol over the empty Link Tile slot.

Link Tiles can look the way you want them to, at this point you can just upload an image file when the tile is created. Having selected the desired image, you'll be prompted to enter the URL for the page the tile will redirect to when clicked, just paste this in and then click enter.

You've now created a link tile, but you're not quite done yet! Next, you can pin the tile in place so it doesn’t disappear down the timeline as more recent social content feeds into your Curate page and social wall. To do this, enter the number for the position in which you'd like the Link Tile to appear*.

To animate your link tiles navigate to Settings (Website), then in the Animations panel select yes on the 'Animate Link Tiles' option. Just below this option you'll see the 'Animate Link Tiles Bgcolor' option. Use the colour palette here to select the colour for the border of your link tiles.

TOP TIP: Feeling creative? Try uploading an animated GIF file or a transparent PNG file, more visually engaging tiles increase the chances of your followers clicking the links.
