Will a Giveaway Help With Referral Traffic?
Yes, if you reward referrals. With Viral Share (Pro Plan and above), each entrant gets a unique link and earns entries when a friend enters through it, not for sharing it.
To set it up:
- On the How to Enter tab, add Viral Share and set how many entries each referral is worth.
- Set a referral limit per entrant if you want one.
- Choose the sharing options, such as email, X, Facebook, Bluesky and WhatsApp.
- Add at least one other Action, because entrants aren't entered until they complete one.
Two reports tell you different things. The Viral Share report shows the referrals your entrants brought in. The Referrers report (Business Plan and above) shows which sites and landing pages sent visitors to your campaign, including partner links tagged with query strings.
Show the reward in the Action's title, like "5 entries for every friend who enters". Entrants won't share for a reward they can't see.
