Several factors that make posts popular

1. Account level. The higher the account level, the easier it is to make a post popular.

If you have a high-level account, posting will be easy. If you don’t have one, you can create one yourself, but it takes time to create one. The fastest way is to find celebrities to post for you, especially those who are L5 or above, and find accounts with Pro logos to post for you, which will make it easier to get into the Front or popular pages.

2. The quality of the like and comment accounts is related to whether the post is likely to be deleted

Likes and comments from non-professional users are easily identified as spam by the system. It is not a big problem if it is in small quantities, but if you use a large number of accounts to do so in order to promote a post, the risk is relatively large. It is possible that the post will be deleted, the main account will be deleted, the small account will be deleted, and the brand will be blocked.

3. Number of likes and comments

The more valid likes and comments there are, the easier it is to promote a post.

4. Operations related to likes and comments from a large number of accounts

In order to get more likes and comments to promote your posts, you need to have a group of small accounts, or be able to contact a group of celebrities or Slickdeals users. Only after you have these resources can you start to promote your posts.

It is recommended to have more than 100 accounts for pushing or maintaining accounts. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid these accounts being identified as associated or spam by Slickdeals. Therefore, it is recommended to use different IPs and different computers for operation. Generally, operators will use VPS or virtual machines for operation, and the location coordinates are all located in the United States. At the same time, these accounts cannot be used right after registration, and need to be maintained for a period of time. Due to the complexity of the operation, many users directly find a third party to operate.

How to contact influencers to post

The main logic is through keywords + search. People who are willing to accept third-party posts will generally leave relevant information on the SNS network. You just need to follow this information to find it.

Main search keywords: Slickdeals

·Main search channels include: Skype, Linkedin, Facebook, YouTube

You can also find freelancers through third-party channels: fiverr, freelancer, Upwork and other platforms.

When communicating with influencers, it is important to understand their Slickdeals account level, whether the account has a Pro logo, the charging rules (including whether to post first and pay later or pay first and post later), what to do if the post is deleted, how to get a refund, etc.

How to avoid being blocked

1. Make sure the deals you post are the lowest prices on the Internet. Search the entire Internet first, including Amazon, eBay, Walmart and AliExpress;

2. Short URL is not supported by Slickdeals. Avoid using short URL tools such as Google, Amazon and Bitly.

3. Make sure that no tracking information is added. Make sure that all kinds of UTM tracking are not added. If you want to use tracking, it is recommended to do a special product activity on Slickdeals.

4. Crowdfunding links cannot be sent;

5. Avoid using multiple accounts to post cheating posts and comments. The system will judge whether you are cheating based on your computer, IP, etc. If you register multiple accounts for cheating in a short period of time, you will also be investigated. The best practice is to use different computers, different IPs, and different login time periods to register accounts, and keep the accounts for a period of time before operating. The core logic is to make these accounts behave like a normal account. Otherwise, there will be a risk of account and brand closure.

6. The same product cannot be posted repeatedly. This is clearly stated in the Slickdeals posting guide. You must search before posting to ensure that there are no duplicate posts. If you ignore this rule, the consequence may be account suspension or even brand closure. The best practice is to push the post up.

7. The prerequisite for Amazon sellers to post in Slickdeals is that the store has 1,000 reviews, otherwise they need to contact the editor to publish.

8. The last and most important point is that you cannot post indiscriminately. You cannot post top posts in this way. Also, the price must be attractive enough.
