Choosing a FeedBlueFox provides a large selection of news, traffic, weather and entertainment feeds. Browse through the Content Selector in order to choose the best feed for you.

Remember to always consider your audience when choosing a feed. Also keep in mind that you can mix and match feeds to make it perfect for you. The following guiding questions may help you in deciding on which feed to purchase.

• How long will my audience be looking at the screen for?

• If your viewers will only be quickly passing by your screen, you may want to opt for the 24 Hour Photo content feed which provides striking pictures with very few words to tell a news story.

• If your viewers are going to be watching your screen for a long time, such as in an office lobby, you may prefer other feeds with more written content.

• What is my audience interested in?

• Consider if your viewers would be most captivated by news, or entertainment.

• If you are unsure, keep in mind that weather news is relevant to almost every audience.

• Think about the average age of your audience.

• Consider whether your viewers will be commuting shortly after.

• In this case, a traffic feed would be very appropriate.

These are the types of questions you should ask yourself when buying BlueFox feeds. By understanding your viewers and their interests, you can choose content that will be the most captivating, thereby keeping them happy.

Extra CustomizationSome content feeds have more customization options. For example, weather and traffic feeds can be geo-localized. There are also extra template options for some feeds.

The pin will geo-localize based on your location. Whichever city this pin is on will be the source of your feed. If you want to choose a different city, you can move the pin to other cities throughout the world.

Configure your FeedsNow that you have purchased a feed, you can customize it in the customer dashboard.

Step One: Customer Dashboard

In your dashboard, you can also check and update the preferences on your account. This includes your company name, address, etc. You can check all our past purchased feeds and all the transactions you’ve made with BlueFox. In the Expired Feeds tab, you can also choose to re-activate past feeds with one simple click.

You can also choose to add credit to your account, which will be automatically de-ducted every month based on your feeds. This means you won’t have to come back and pay every month, as you can simply allow it to be paid for automatically. In the Balance/Transactions tab, you can deposit money into your account.

8

Enter your dashboard and then go to manage your feeds.

Step Two: Manage Your Feeds

Step Three: Add Keyword Filters if Necessary

The Keyword Filter will scan all articles for your specified words and omit any stories that contain them. This means you can prevent any news stories regarding topics you don’t like from showing on your news feed. For example, you can block headlines re-garding war, death, drugs, etc.
