Often a petition recieve more likes than signatures. This may happen because some people prefer to just click on "I like" and not to sign, for privacy or personal reasons. Some who share the objectives of a petition, don't want to give their information and so prefer not to sign but only click on "I like it." The fact that there are more "like" does not mean you've lost signatures. It just means that you have a broader support. But remember that if you change the URL of your petition you will also lose all those users who have expressed an interest in your idea. However, you can have others or redirect the old URL to the new.

Networking sites like Facebook and Twitter are also a good window for your petition.

Petitions in social networks run very quickly between people who, as you, are interested in a topic, such as in groups.

To promote your petition is also a good practice to place links on other websites. Please note also that as many web sites will contain the link to your petition more web search engines will recognize it as an important page and more it will be visited. Therefore we recommend to put the link on as many sites as possible. A good way to spread it can also be to insert the link in databases as Wikipedia.org.

You should be looking for sites that have similar aspects to the subject of your petition. You will agree once you've identified them to send emails to their webmaster and probabily they will insert the link of your petition. You can also click on the Bookmark link found at the top of each petition and refer to other social networks, where you can promote your petition.

As with any other links, copy the address bar of your browser and paste it wherever you want.
