Overview

Many sites hand out files freely and get nothing back in terms of social visibility. Download Monitor Twitter Lock addresses that by placing a Twitter share between the visitor and the file. A person who wants the content tweets your message first, so each file you distribute can also spread word of your brand or project through the visitor's own profile.

You decide what gets tweeted. Write a unique message for an individual download, or set one global tweet that applies to every file, which suits different campaigns or products. The extension works with any WordPress theme and its templates can be overridden, so the lock can match your site's design. Setup needs no coding, and step-by-step documentation guides the configuration.

Features

  • Tweet required before download: Visitors share a pre-defined tweet before the file becomes available, which turns each download into a social share from their own Twitter account.
  • Custom tweet per download: Write a separate tweet message for each individual download, so every file or campaign can carry wording that fits its own content.
  • Global tweet option: Set one universal tweet that applies across all your files when you prefer a single consistent message instead of editing each download.
  • Overridable templates: Default templates can be overridden, so the Twitter Lock screen can match your site's look and feel and read as a native part of the design.
  • Works with any WordPress theme: The extension is compatible with any WordPress theme, so you can add the lock without changing the theme your site already uses.
  • No coding needed: Configuration is straightforward and supported by step-by-step documentation, so site owners at any skill level can set up the lock themselves.
  • Built on Download Monitor: It fits into your existing Download Monitor setup and adds social sharing to the download workflow you already manage.

Best for

  • Site owners who distribute files with Download Monitor
  • Marketers who want visitors to share content on Twitter
  • Publishers running different campaigns for different downloads
