New Options Available On ActiveRain

It is good to see that members of ActiveRain now have additional options.  Some of us have been very tired of automated email notices. Thanks to the ActiveRain staff.

A quick post to let you all know we had a release today and how it may make your AR experience a little better.  

We fixed a few things on the back end to keep that wheel moving at lightning speed.  Our IT team is on top of all platform upgrades to continue our high authority ranking for you all.

With the addition of our new onboarding program, you may have noticed a few extra email notifications coming through.  These milestone emails let you know your blog post has reached its 50th click (yeah baby) or you've been featured (whoop, whoop) and more. These were designed to keep the newbies interested.  Remember long ago when you were new and imagine hearing your blog post had been read by 50 people....pretty powerful!  

However, for those of you who don't need another email in your already full inbox you can now opt out of these notifications.  Please go to your Settings to do so:  http://activerain.com/action/agents_secure/settings

You will see new Notification and Messaging options. Keep in mind, if you do want any of the milestone notifications you must keep the box checked.  There is no way to pick and choose which milestone emails you'd like or not like; it's all or nothing.  You can also opt out of the social sharing reminder that pops up once you post your blog entry.

   

 

Have a wonderful day Rainers!!

Roy, thanks for re-blogging this.  I had not seen it, and would not have known about the changes.  What I DO find funny is that this post is about changes in our Active Rain email, yet they could not SEND us this information in a Active Rain email.

Thanks for stopping by.  Please leave comments at the original blog if you want them to be seen by the ActiveRain staff.

Kerrie did email the link to me because I had complained many times about the unwanted automated notices and pop up reminders.

Enjoy the holiday season with your camera in hand.
