Make future updates easier
If you want to avoid manually updating this link across multiple pages/locations in the future:
-
Create your own landing page URL.
-
Start with the domain bookactivities.com/offers/
-
After offers/ use anything you'd like (except spaces), such as your company name.
-
Then end the URL with a hyphen ( - ) and your widget ID.
<script defer data-widget-id="265" src="https://cdn.xplorie.com/js/widget.js"></script>
-
Your final landing page URL will be bookactivities.com/offers/:YourChoice:-:WidgetID:
See our example links below:
💡 Create as many links as you'd like as long as it starts with 'bookactivities.com/offers/' and ends with '-:widgetID:', the link will always take visitors straight to your widget.
