What Is User-Generated Content?

The term user-generated content, AKA user-created content, implies any type of content generated/created and published by unpaid contributors/influencers and the public. The type of content can range from pictures, videos, testimonials, tweets, blog posts, and everything connected with it. It can be best understood as individuals (users) promoting and talking about a brand of one’s own volition. In our case, we are inviting content towards the ‘Telco for Good’ campaign for the Smiles Across Miles on the landing page for the activities: (i) Contact your contact and (ii) Pawsome pets.
