well it was going to just be "success stories" but a good point was brought up that some of the new owners wouldn't really have good success stories.

So I think we've broadened the search to include any tech articles, or webmaster articles in general.

I'll have to look through this thread and check for sure, but this is what I remember right now.

**Cerberus** · 07-16-2008, 08:09 AM

Hmm question?

I just noticed this contest thingy. I mean I will post a success story on an old forum, but my new one not really successful LOL

But I posted this one on the 2nd

Advertising:Real World

It no count as article?

I mean i am going to post more anyway..Just taking advantage of ncie weather to make some money outside...But just curious

Also this is nice...What are you using to keep the stats of posts?

ya, that'll work
I'll add it to the "contest" category

**Caddyman** · 07-16-2008, 12:32 PM

is there a way to check our referrals?

**SteveAR** · 07-16-2008, 12:58 PM

good contest and im sure it'll be a good one.

**Soliloquy** · 07-16-2008, 02:07 PM

I see it was unwise to taunt Caddyman... today he was a posting machine!

**Caddyman** · 07-16-2008, 02:21 PM

just getting warm baby, i need competition though, keep it up!

**Brandon Sheley** · 07-16-2008, 03:06 PM

that's how he rolls

**Soliloquy** · 07-16-2008, 07:56 PM

Do recipes count as posts? And I don't see where to make blog entries, I must be blind...

**Caddyman** · 07-16-2008, 08:04 PM

here you go

vBulletin SEO Setup › Registration Form

**Brandon Sheley** · 07-16-2008, 08:15 PM

you'll need to register on our blog vBulletin SEO Setup and I'll setup your account to allow submissions. ( and let me know the name you signed up on as)

I can manually add points for each recipie people add.. How about 50 points for every new recipie posted during the contest timeline.

**Caddyman** · 07-16-2008, 08:25 PM

thats a lot of points IMO

i could google 50 recipes and post them right now....

**Soliloquy** · 07-16-2008, 08:28 PM

Much as I would love to go on a recipe-posting frenzy, I think that 50 points is rather much

**Brandon Sheley** · 07-16-2008, 08:28 PM

maybe so..
how about 25 then?

I was thinking of the points you get for replies on your threads.. you would just get a flat fee this way..

but I think 25 would be fair? You can make 25 points in one thread in the search engine or marketing article forums. It would take maybe 500 characters and then you would get the points for the replies as well

I certainly wouldn't mind a rush of threads in any of the sections

**Soliloquy** · 07-16-2008, 08:30 PM

Ok, just signed up as Soliloquy, thanks for pointing me to the form

**Soliloquy** · 07-16-2008, 08:34 PM

Wait... we get points for the replies to our threads too? Ah ok

**Caddyman** · 07-16-2008, 08:45 PM

im going to bed, go to bed soliloguy, RIGHT NOW!

**Soliloquy** · 07-16-2008, 08:56 PM

must... stay... awake...
must... keep... posting...
must... not... let... Caddyman... get... ahead

you are setup, I'll also add you to the contributers group on the forums as well

** when you submit your article(s) just add it to at least this category

you can add others that fit, but add this one so we can review in the end.

yes, if you make a thread and i reply, you'll get a few points for my reply and I'll also get some points for posting.

**Cerberus** · 07-17-2008, 04:16 AM

So um we get points for every blog we make or you can get those points only once?

**Brandon Sheley** · 07-17-2008, 04:36 AM

we will review all the blog post and there will be a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place points

Oh ok I get it now

Well hell then I will write about 50 of them MUWAHAHAH Maybe that way I will get something out of it LOL

**Soliloquy** · 07-17-2008, 07:24 AM

How about links and comments in the link directory, are they counted as new threads and replies?
