Choose a creative and write a caption
Pair a shared image or video with clear words and your personal link.
Choose for the placement
Start with the place your audience will see the post. Square artwork suits many feed layouts; vertical artwork gives a different framing for Stories and short video placements. Preview the actual placement rather than assuming that one file fits every surface.
Watch videos with sound off as well as on. Check readability, important text near controls and whether the artwork makes the offer clear. Conceptual artwork illustrates an idea. It should not be presented as a screenshot proving a result the product has not demonstrated.
Give the reader one next step
Use a caption from the shared library as a starting point. Explain one useful idea in familiar words, then invite one action. Read it alongside the landing page so that price, access and availability agree. Remove claims you cannot verify.
Keep the affiliate disclosure visible beside your recommendation. Copy your own tracked link. Some placements need the link configured in a profile or another supported destination; test that path yourself. A beautiful image cannot fix a broken or misleading next step.
Try these steps
- Download a square image for feeds, or a vertical image/video for Stories and Reels. Preview the whole placement and keep text away from controls.
- Choose a caption below and copy it with your personal tracked link. Keep the affiliate disclosure visible. Instagram and TikTok may need a separately configured profile link.
- Conceptual artwork illustrates an idea; it is not proof of a tested product result. Do not add fake testimonials, earnings guarantees, unsupported features or performance claims.
A real-world example
Choose a creative and write a caption: an example to try
A feed post shows “Your idea deserves a first draft.” Its caption invites readers to explore a small website idea and includes the partner disclosure. It makes no promise about completion time or income.
