Make sure you’ve added your child to your TotSpot account. To do so, just click on the "Add a child" link from your TotSpot dashboard.
No. You are totally in control of the privacy of your TotSpot account. By default, only you and the people you explicitly invite can see any of your child’s content.
You can change your privacy settings to ‘closed,’ which removes access from even those who you’ve invited already, or ‘public,’ to allow open access to your TotSpot page.
None of these options will make your child’s TotSpot page show up in any search engine results – not Google, Yahoo, or anyone else.
First of all, congratulations!
Second, the answer is yes. When adding your soon-to-be child, leave the ‘Name’ fields blank and just enter your expected due date instead of a birthday. If you don’t know the gender yet, just select ‘unknown’ from the dropdown menu.
No, of course not! TotSpot is open for all.
We initially designed the product with for parents of 0-5 year olds, but throughout our private beta and in our conversations with parents we’ve found a consistent desire for TotSpot pages amongst parents of older kids – and the kid’s themselves sometimes!
It’s also never too late to go back and chronicle your own childhood or that of a spouse. Feel free to use TotSpot however you like.
Both. We see creating TotSpot pages as something that parents do for their kids (or, soon-to-be kids), and eventually, something parents do with their kids. We love hearing stories from parents of their older tots sitting by their side to create their TotSpot pages.
TotSpot allows you to import content and contacts from a number of existing web services. We do our best to ensure that these services are always functioning properly, but every once in a while a change by one of these third-parties puts our importing out of sorts. If you’re having problems, drop us a line, and we’ll look into it as soon as possible.
We know that you’re not always the only one capturing memories of your child. Contributor accounts are designed for those family and friends that you want to be able to add photos and videos to your child’s TotSpot page.
To designate someone as a contributor, first, invite them as a friend. Once, they’ve accepted your invitation, go to your main Friends page, and select ‘contributor’ under the dropdown for the appropriate person.
Yes, you can! We now allow direct video uploads to TotSpot. Alternatively, you still have the option to import videos from Youtube or Vimeo.
You can upload up to 250MB of photos per month (enough for several hundred high resolution images) to each of TotSpot child profile. We also have TotSpot Plus accounts available for users who need more space. Click here to upgrade to Plus!
