Welcome your visitors with the Announcement Notifications
Announcements solves a problem expressed by many Fomo users - how to create a custom call to action for visitors to their website?
The Announcement notification will be displayed to all website visitors when they land on your site, no minimum visitors required!
With the Announcement integration you have a blank slate where you can write whatever you like and share an important call to action. Many websites have an Announcement bar across the header of the site, but users are so quick to scroll down they may miss it - they won’t when a Fomo notification pops up!
Here’s how you do it:
Step 1 - Enable the Announcement notification
Go to Notifications, click "Add Notifications", then "All Notifications" and search for Announcement:

Click “Connect" and then toggle to enable the connection:
