When we add you as a Listed Charity we generate a dedicated landing page with your logo and description. This provides you with a central place to point supporters to that houses all of your e-card pages in one place.
Your landing page URL is found on the charity dashboard homepage. This is also provided in your Welcome Email or you can find it on the list of charities.
The recommended format for the link text to your landing page is:
{Organisation Name} eCards
As an example this would be
Shelter eCards
Example URL code with link text:
<a href="https://www.dontsendmeacard.com/ecards/charities/shelter">Shelter eCards</a>
This is optional but helps to provide a visual connection from your site when pointing to DSMAC. You can find our graphics or logos to use here.
When linking to specific occasions that you are fundraising for, we suggest to add the occasion name.
The recommended format for the link text to your occasion page is:
{Organisation Name} {Occasion} eCards
As an example this would be:
Shelter Christmas eCards
Example URL code with link text:
<a href="https://www.dontsendmeacard.com/ecards/charities/shelter/christmas">Shelter Christmas eCards</a>
When talking about the platform in general the recommended link format to our homepage is:
<a href="https://www.dontsendmeacard.com">Charity eCards</a>
This is course dependent on how your site is setup. Linking from your Donate section and your Ways to Support Us and Corporate Partnerships pages are a fit.
The more visibility you can give on your site including your homepage and main pages will raise more.
For seasonal promotions such as Christmas, running a homepage banner linking directly your occasion page is effective.
Having the link in the footer of your site as 'Charity Name eCards' would provide additional visibility to all site visitors.
We don't charge to list you as a charity partner. We do ask that you link to your landing page from your charity website. This is for a number of reasons.
Linking from your site makes supporters aware that they can donate through the initiative.
Since launching the platform a few years ago we have continually invested into optimising the site. Ensuring that you have links on your sites helps your DSMAC pages rank higher and also contributes in general.
We work hard to offer the best-in-class alternative to cards. By following this guidance you're demonstrating to us that you're participating as a charity partner :)
