The perimeter is online🔥! | What is a perimeter? what can i do with it?

Hello everyone, the Matters perimeter function has been launched.

"Room" has both subscription system and community interaction functions. Authors can use Roku to unite your readers and build a private club connecting you and readers; readers can join Roku and have direct conversations with your favorite creators. By the fire, meet more like-minded friends, read, chat and discover together.

At present, this function is still in the internal testing stage, and we specially invited the first batch of creators to experience the furnace function first. We also welcome you to apply to be the first batch of "furnace owners". Click on the picture of "Internal testing around the furnace, hot in progress" at the top of the Matters website homepage, and you can send a letter to hi@matters.news to apply for becoming a furnace owner. .

Below are the usage guidelines for this feature. We have listed a few questions that may be of interest to you. If you have any other questions, you are welcome to ask them directly in the comment area, and we will answer them as soon as possible. thanks.

• What is a perimeter? As an author, what can I do with a perimeter? How is it different from subscription tools like Plaid, Patreon, etc.?

IOR is a "community" . Joining IOR through subscription payment means to become a member of your favorite creator club by paying support. Based on articles, Iiroku connects readers and forms a solid community. It is a very practical tool for creators who are interested in long-term content management.

The biggest difference between Iokao and Fangzi, Patreon and other subscription tools is that it helps authors and readers get closer than ever before, where authors can have direct conversations with readers and readers. Because it has both the subscription system and the community interaction function, the use of the fireplace is quite diverse, from the most basic writing subscription, reader group management, to gathering friends, launching small online Q&A, etc., all can be achieved through the fireplace.

Iirori wants to build one that allows readers to subscribe to you, stay here, follow for a long time, and not just buy your space all at once. I hope that compared with one-way subscription-based tools such as Patreon, we can do better community connections, and continue to deliver energy to the creator's "stove" through the very active Matters community, so as to avoid entering Patreon as deep as the sea and relying on Facebook for communication. , can no longer find each other's results.

At present, there is only one manager for a kiln, that is, the creator himself. Since the perimeter involves cash flow and profit sharing, it will maintain the setting of only one manager.

• What does "Limited Exemption" displayed on the work card mean?

The "limited free" in the work card means that the article can be read for free within 24 hours. After the work is published or added to the perimeter, a 24-hour limited-free mode will be activated. Within 24 hours, all users can read the work, which will help the article to be widely disseminated and increase readers’ interest in this work to join the perimeter. Furnace opportunity. Once 24 hours have elapsed, the work is only visible to paid members in the perimeter, and other users can still read the summary of the work.

• Can I create multiple peripheries?

Currently, a user can only create one perimeter. We recommend that furnace owners focus on operating one perimeter first, and then do not rule out the opportunity to provide multiple perimeters.

• What are the "public chat" and "broadcast" in the fireplace?

You can understand "the public chat" as "the square" or "the fireside where everyone sits and chats". Here, all "furnace friends" who join the fire can post comments and reply to others' comments, but not join the fire. Furnace users cannot participate or see. Furnace owners can even initiate online discussions or live Q&A on a topic here to strengthen community connections within the furnace. An interesting "conversation" is likely to become an important reason why your perimeter is loved by everyone.

"Broadcast" is the owner's private space. Only the owner can publish content in the broadcast, and once it is released, all furnace friends will be notified. We found that in addition to the finished product, many creators also want to share some interesting and short content with their readers in the process of creation. This is the source of design inspiration for "Broadcast". But how to use it is up to you to choose, I believe you will have better gameplay.

• I would like to better understand my Io and my Io readers, where can I get useful data information?

We understand everyone's needs very much, so in the first stage, we will send your furnace data report to furnace owners by email.
