Customization, ownership, and experience. Utilizing a white label social network for a community is an incredibly powerful tool for brands and organizations looking to take advantage of existing tribal knowledge and expertise versus building and maintaining their own solution.

Honeycommb is the easiest turn-key solution for brands and organizations who want to take their brand and community to the next level. True ownership over the platform means more than just emails and usernames. data, distribution of content and control over the experience is where the heart of your community is. The context of your network in a fully branded mobile app for iOS + Android and web provides an incredible tool to engage your people.

Our social networks are built with packed with features and fully-integrated with one another which makes branding and launch very seamless. You’re able to spend less time, money, and human capital by not building your own social network mobile app from scratch and simply provide your community a beautiful, easy to navigate, network in a very short amount of time. You just share your branding and identity with us and get back to business while we package everything up nicely for you.

Public or Private Social Network?

Honeycommb is built to scale the user experience from small, private networks meant for a specific group of people to connect and share privately — to massive, open social networks where anyone can join, connect, and share. At any point in time, you can also make the decision to move from private to public (or the other way around) as simple as ever.

Monetization Capabilities

As your community grows in scale and monetization is critical to your business, having the right toolset to capture the most value from your audience is imperative. Charging for access to your network or by offering the network as an extra value-add to your existing subscription model are both simple ways to turn your network on.

This is YOUR network and YOU own it, you have the ability to sell sponsored posts and saleable assets that come in the form of real estate within your app. The possibilities are endless once you’ve built up a strong member base.

At the end of the day, this is a sandbox and you can build any kind of sandcastle you’d like.

Custom Slide Out Menu

Take your slide-out menu to the next level by adding up to three custom menu items that link directly to URLs or destinations that your members should have easy access to; like ticketed events, eCommerce store, or internal resources. Your slide-out menu is easily customized and effects the application immediately so if you’re looking to use around a timely event or activation, you can update directly from the Control Center.

Optimize Your App Store Listings

Whether your network is published through our Developer account on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store OR we’re publishing through your own developer account, adjusting your app store listing is simple and easy.

The app store is a marketplace for audiences to discover new and exciting products; yours included. Running tests and experiments to optimize your listing is an important tactic in the growth and marketing strategy of your community.

Strategically leveraging the right keywords, imagery, and content on your app store listing is the best way to capture the most ASO (App Store Optimization) power that you can through your listing.

Home Feed Curation

The home feed of a community is the central place where action and content are consumed. Each community is different and so the home feed should reflect that, right? Community admins can curate and feature relevant and interesting content to the top of a users’ feed. The feature is also used to promote interesting information for the rest of the audience.

The top contributing members of your network can be deemed as “verified” users (think blue check status on Instagram) and their content is highlighted in the “Discover” tab of a network to give the elevated status.

At the end of the day, users can curate their own home feed experience, but you have a bit of help to push them in the right direction.

Dedicated Developer Account

Our white label networks standard offering is to publish your app quickly through our own Honeycommb developer account in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store within 48 hours. But, with some extra steps, we can publish and push updates through your own dedicated developer account.

Custom URL

To have even more branding control, we can also redirect your Honeycommb web app to your own custom URL so Honeycommb is completely hidden from your user’s eyesight.

Terms of Service + Data & Privacy Policy

  • Terms of Service
  • Data Policy
  • Privacy Policy

The owner of the network is able to set their own Terms of Service, Data Policy, and Privacy Policy. Most organizations and brands have different rules and regulations to keep their community safe and aware. You’re also able to update those policies as often as needed.
