Documentary encyclobjects: 07 Interactivity and advanced features
The important thing for a digital publication of our kind is the audience. Achieving a high level of audience is essential to meet the economic and editorial objectives of a publication. However, above all, and in our case, we also need a participatory audience. That is, readers willing to comment on articles, to collaborate in the publication’s initiatives and in the development of a fundamentally informative journal.
An interactive audience, eager to participate in this project and with enough concerns to ascend to a higher level of publication. To achieve this type of audience, we have equipped our website with advanced functions, which not only allow our readers to interact, but also provide added value to the publication itself, providing increasingly fast, reliable and interesting information.
Forms
A simple and intuitive way to connect with our publication is forms. With them we intend that our readers, through user registration, access the content of our publication and, likewise, obtain advantages over any other unregistered user. The forms we feature in our publication are:
– Contact Form: the easiest way to contact us and make any queries or suggestions. Fast and efficient.
– User Registration Form: the gateway to our publication. By registering as a user you will get access to the first subscription level (Free), which will allow you to access our Points Program. From time to time we establish special promotions for our registered users. Don’t miss them.
– Login Form: Most of the applications we use on the internet require login. This is very important since the login process undoubtedly allows the user to be accredited with respect to the application, allowing him to access all the headings that are intended for this status. In addition, in our magazine, this action is rewarded, since we reward the login with points (once a day). With these points, as a reward for loyalty, you can then redeem them in our online store.
– Form Customer Registration: Allows you to register as a customer with your email and join the points program. Also, if you want, we will send you reward points for your birthday. You will also be able to access all the details of your account: orders, points, etc., and also set Wish Lists.
– Subscription Plans Form: You are already a user, therefore, you can take advantage of our paid subscription plans: START, AVANT and SELECT, with which, for a small amount you will enjoy exclusive content and you will be able to multiply your points by 2, 1.5 and 2.5 respectively.
– Newsletter subscription form: In the sidebar of our pages, posts and projects you have a widget where you can subscribe to our newsletter. You will first receive an email to confirm your subscription and confirm the language in which you wish to receive the newsletter. Then, you will receive an email the first of each month with the content published and what is going to be published soon. You also have the widget in the footer. And, as if that were not enough, from time to time, it can emerge on any of the screens. Take advantage of it to stay up to date with the content of our publication.
Audience Engagement
Our audience is invited to participate in our magazine, and they can do so in different ways:
– Posts rating: You can leave us 5 ***** at the end of each post.
– Comments on Posts: You can make a comment at the end of each post. In it you can rate the article, make a query or suggestion. Remember that all comments will be moderated by our team to always maintain a good tone in our publication. Plus, if you’re logged in, you’ll be able to earn reward points.
– Comments on Events: In the same way as on the tickets, you can leave a comment in the box at the end of each Event, indicating if you have seen it, if you liked it or anything you think may be interesting for other readers. You’ll also get reward points.
– Like: You can anonymously add a like (red heart) on the left side of each post.
– Product Reviews: If you have purchased a product in our online store, you can leave a rating of it which, like all comments, must be approved by our team. In addition, you will get reward points for this action, which will be added to the points you have already earned for each € purchased.
– Point promotions: We periodically carry out reward point promotions, which multiply by 2 or 3 the number of points assigned for each action. Remember that if you have a subscription plan other than the Free Plan, you can multiply your reward points in addition to the promotion. Take advantage of them, check the sales calendar and points promotions.

Widget Usage and Areas
An important chapter within a publication such as a digital magazine is the user experience. In search of the audience and participation, it is the responsibility of the digital magazine to favor the user experience. To do this, we incorporated a side area (sidebar), where we implemented a series of widgets that will facilitate both navigation and user participation in the magazine.
This sidebar is present on all information pages, posts, projects, categories, and tags, below the header and on the right side of the page. It contains the following elements or widgets:
– Search: A predictive search engine that makes it easier for our users to locate the content of their interest.
– Self-promotion widgets: Spaces that inform our users of our promotions and advantages throughout the year. For example: Summer Sale, Points Promotion.
– Categories: A drop-down box that informs about all the categories in our publication and presents, in parentheses, the number of entries that each category has.
– Advertising: A space for the insertion of advertising banners.
– Recent Posts: A widget that features the last 5 posts published along with a thumbnail image.
– Newsletter subscription: Widget that presents the subscription form to our Newsletter.
– Tags: We include a box with an image that leads directly to the tags page, where our users, alphabetically, can search for content in any of our tags.
– Advertising self-promotion widget: This widget suggests to our target brands, to advertise in our digital magazine.
– Products: A widget that features the last 5 published products along with a thumbnail image
