There’s some big stuff rolling out to SocialSpark.com today and we want you to be the first to know about it! Here are the things everyone’s going to be talking about:
Fixed This Week
- Advertisers who have open Opportunities will no longer be able to deactivate their accounts. If you’re an advertiser with open Opps and you wish to deactivate, you’ll need to close out all of your Opps first.
- The Invite To Opportunity and Add to Blog Roll tools will no longer appear on blog profiles that have not been approved for marketplace participation.
- The Opp Qualification emails that were released two weeks ago were erroneously going to bloggers that had deactivated their accounts or had been locked out of SocialSpark. This will no longer occur.
New This Week
- The IZEA Insiders program has been added to SocialSpark. If you’re a team member (or want to be) you can now add yourself with the new tool on your Blogger Profile edit screen. Insider Team Leaders will also be able to manage their team from their Manage Blogger Account page.
- Our Affiliates server now uses a referrer blacklist in addition to ClickForensics to minimize the occurrence of fraudulent clicks.
- The cropper tool you use for avatar editing on Accounts and Opportunities has been completely redesigned to be more user-friendly and no longer stretches or distorts the uploaded images.
- The minimum deposit on a CPA Opportunity has been lowered to $100.
These features and bug fixes will be coming your way in the next hour so stand by… Follow @IZEALove or @SocialSpark if you want to be among the first to know when the release drops.
