Suggest a prize and get a prize


Posted Date: 18 Dec 2008      Posted By: Tony      Member Level: Platinum     Points: 1   Responses: 56



The traffic and revenue in ISC has improved significantly in last few months. We like to thank all of our valuable members for this achievement.

We like to share the benefits with the members. We are looking for ways to give more prizes and offer more revenue share. Please suggest the best way to do this.

One option I can think of is, give some cash credits to self written resources. We are already giving cash credits to few high quality, selected resources through the Cool Post, Hot Prize program. Probably we can extend this to give cash credits to more number of self written resources. What do you all think about it?

Also, please suggest few competitions we can start in ISC, without having to develop new features.

The best suggestions will receive cash prizes of Rs 250 each.

well some of the suggestions I can think are:

1. Giving away some cash credit to the best resource of the week/day.

2. Prizes to the members who have answered the queries asked by various others effectively in the past few months.

3. Talking about adsense revenue increased..we can ask our active members earning from adsense to submit their this month's/week's detailed report and can give away some additional prize to the one who has earned maximum revenue(Should be open to certain members only).

4. Members can be asked to suggest new features they'll like to see at ISC in near future and winner of the best suggested feature can get some cash credits.

5. Another suggestion is giving away cash credits for special achievement such as welcome bonus for members in diamond level membership as Rs.100 then further when they reach 5000 points they can again get Rs.150 or something and then when a member reaches 10000 points he can get Rs.300 and Rs.500 for new platinum members.

These were a few that clicked now,will think of some more and post them.

Hi Tony,
Firstly i would like to thank you for thinking and deciding to share the revenue to the members this initiative can be seen in the probability of one milionth.To such a great level you are serving ISC members.

One suggestion is to increase the cash credit level of Question Paper section it it the lowest because you cant give below 1Re like 50 paise. So my suggestion and request concentrates here, because submitting a question paper needs more time and work than anything for ISC.



Author: Prasanta Borah    18 Dec 2008Member Level: DiamondRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 3

Hi Tony,

It is a good idea. I think it will help to ISC grow with the self written good resources.

Nemish is right........I am agree with him.
We can give a cash credit to the best resource of the day/week
It will help inspired the members to post various self written resources to the ISC, because cash credit related with this matter.

Thanking you

Hi Tony,

Your "sharing the benifits with members" nature has made ISC grow so fast.

1. Bonus can be given to Gold members also.

2. Search for members who are really benefited by "fresher jobs" and "Job & interviews" category. Award the member who posted the resource.

3. Members can suggest more ways to use renewable resources in nature. Best suggestion can be awarded.

It is the "Sharing with members" which makes ISC successful.

You should start a section Essay where the best essay will be given some prize. As essay is one of the most important topic to get in any competitive exam.

It will also attract the traffic into this site and make the members benefited.

One more more thing should be give most active referrer of the week contest should be opened to increase the number of members and give benefit to more persons.

Hello Tony,

What a great Decision!!!

My suggestions are as follows

(1) "Member of the Day" gift award (Like Rs.100 or Rs.150 per day):

* So many ISC members are working sincerely, but they earn only points. They feel and worry about to earn money from ISC.
* Our ISC members daily spends so many valuable times to earn points and improve our ISC as well as Their self.
* To become a today's first member is not easy one, nearly it will take 3 to 5 Hours daily. Also now a day’s Earning points is too Hard.
* So from this award our so many ISC members will compete to each other and works hard to get this award. It improves our ISC as well as their self.
* Also it is one of the best daily Income who gets the first place per day in our ISC.


(2) "To days 500 points" gift award (like Rs.50 or Rs.100 per day):

If one day any two or three members earned 500 points per day, and they can't become a "member of the day" .that time this award cools their heart.
That’s why I am saying Our ISC member who earned 500 points per day they are also awarded cash prize. Because it should take time up to 6 hours.
This award is also awarded to the "member of the Day" who earned 500 points at that day.

5stararun...



Author: P.K.Arunkumar    19 Dec 2008Member Level: DiamondRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 5

Hi to all,

I am continuing my suggestions

(3) “Daily Referrals competition” gift award (like Rs. 25 or Rs.50):

* Our ISC members Daily who get first place to refer too many others to join our ISC Family they are eligible for this gift award.

* Because Referring is not easy one, so many members fail to activate their Validation code.

* So we need care to validate our referrals
That’s why I am saying “Daily Referrals competition” gift award.


(4)”Project submission” gift award (like Rs.50 per project):

* Projects are very important to all ISC members as well as non ISC members.

* Those who are submitted super projects with necessary details in our ISC they are eligible for this”Project submission” gift award.

* This will take our ISC to all school/college students and Our ISC should become very popular.

Hence our ISC member strength Increases.

Author: Radi    19 Dec 2008Member Level: GoldRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 2

*Can give gift to the best mentor who do their part best and to those who have more members.
*For the best post in forum.
*For the best picture which is their own and not a forwarded or copied one.
*To the member who really clears all members' doubts in forum

Regards,

Author: Hemant    19 Dec 2008Member Level: SilverRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 2

I think there should be some cash award depending upon the point they secured, may be it 1 rupees per 5 points, but in this way every member will be eager to contribute more and more.


Author: Vandana     19 Dec 2008Member Level: DiamondRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 5

Cash Credits should definitely be given for deserving members.

My Suggestios:
* Best 3 Market Place postings which get good traffic (weekly or fortnightly basis)- cash prizes
* Cash credit to those who give many city submissions
* Best 3 Fresher Jobs posting which get good traffic (weekly or fortnightly basis)- cash prizes
* Best member cash prize on monthly basis at each member level (not depending on number of postings, but quality of postings)
* Best bookmark submission gift prize, based on usefulness of the site posted (weekly basis)
* I don't think cash credits should be given for members who get 500 points a day, as suggested by others - some members I have noted are merely posting 1-2 lines in a resource section just to accumulate those points. Hence, it is pointless giving cash credits for such a reason

Author: Radharani Munnaluri    19 Dec 2008Member Level: DiamondRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 5

I suggest the following gifts to be added to the list of Cash Credits.
(1)The member who earns the most number of points in a day should be given the award "Member of the day".There are so many members spending hours together in the site.The most important thing while giving this award is that the score board should be checked and not the list which is being displayed on the left.It does not show the valid points.Those which are still under New submissions are also being given points like that of Aptitude questions and colleges.
The most active member during the day should be given cash credit of Rs 50/-

(2)There are more number of editors now and they should be given Editor of the Month award for their active editing.I know that they are being paid honorariums but an award for their work at the end of every month would be apt.They should be given cash credit of Rs 250/-

Regards,
Radharani.

Hi Tony ,
A really Great thought. Well competition can be n numbers in ISC .
As ISC is so vast.
Why not keep a competition for every master fields you have :-
Colleges ( maximium post in a week)
Schools ( maximium post in a week )
Universities ( maximum number of post in a week )
etc..

Keep a competition for each level members .



Author: Saagar.S    19 Dec 2008Member Level: PlatinumRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 4

Hi Tony,
My suggestions are
(1)Give Rs 4 for question paper submission only to Bronze,Silver,Gold Members and Rs 2 to diamond and Platinum members.
*Since Google Adsense account approval is now a days difficult, this package shall help new members ,who are from colleges to earn from ISC easily .

(2)Give Rs 25 daily for the person with maximum points.
*Give preference to new Member if he is in top 5, otherwise give to the person with maximum points.Keep the member of week and month as such.

(3)Give Rs 3 for each Referrals .
*This package really motivate every members to invite new visitors to ISC .

Hi Tony,
Nice to see how open you are in distributing of the income of ISC.

1. You can extend the Adsense Revenue sharing program to other sections.
2. You might even consider a lottery pick prize. I know lottery thing doesn't always convey anything but it keep the enthuasim rolling among the members.
3. Best forum post of the Day.
4. Best Response of the Day.
5. Best photo of the Day.
6. Best suggestion.

Hello Webmaster,

It is great to share the revenue of ISC to Members also.

All ISC Members working hard for ISC's growth, all considering it is our own site. This is main factor of ISC's Success. These revenue should reach every member working hard for ISC. I have some suggestions

1- Prize for every 2500/5000 points. Or give prize like Rs.100 or more for every member who reach 2500/5000 points in a month.

2- Weekly prize for the member who posted more fresh jobs in a week.

3- weekly or monthly prize for recent (best) poll postings. Consider member's 5 posts / week.

4- Weekly prize for Forum responses, Consider number of responses and its quality

5- Weekly / monthly prize (best 3 or more prizes) for best revenue makers of ISC. Google Adsense revenue is the main revenue source of ISC. So should share ISC's revenue to the members who makes more adsense revenue to ISC. Consider adsense revenue through ISC only.

6- weekly Prize for best editor. Give prize to the editor who verified most postings in all section. Editors work and spend more time for keeping ISC's quality.

7- Fixed Monthly salary for Webmaster and web editors working for ISC.

8- Monthly salary or prize for Editors who spend 3 or more hours per day for only verifying the postings.

9- Prize for every self written articles in Resources section

10- Weekly / monthly lucky draw. Consider all members, posted any article in ISC in a week / month. It encourages new members to post articles in ISC.

11- Select 10 or more good articles (resources) by editors and allow the members to vote for best article from the list, Give prize to which article got more votes. Also select a best Voter through lucky draw from the voters of best article. It will help to increase the viewers (readers) and results more revenue from Adsense

Tony,

I suggest to give away a weekly prize to a member who spends maximum time in the ISC site in a week.. So we can give some cash prize to a member who visits the site and spends maximum time in our site.

One more suggestion is to give away a prize every week for the best resource in Science and Technology area. I mean you can give a cash prize to the member who submits best resource in the area of Science and technology ( For ex. a member submits some latest news, inventions, latest developments in Science etc).

I also agree with Mr. Harsh that to pay Rs.3 for each referral so that we get maximum members to join thereby increasing traffic.


These are my suggestions.

Author: P.K.Arunkumar    20 Dec 2008Member Level: DiamondRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 6

Hi to all,

Friends we would like to make Our ISC is the best website
• First in India level.
• Second is worldwide level.


To make our ISC as very popular we have the only one source is ‘The Students’.


Our First work is to attract all students and make them as a member of ISC.


Basically all students like to work part time job and earn pocket money for their expenditure.


Now a day’s our ISC becoming a very good student’s part time learning and working Website.


To become an active member in our ISC every members need
• Any type of PC with Internet connection.


So we need investments to get Internet connections and we have to pay at least Rs.580 money for unlimited every month net connection Bill.


I think most of 95% of Our ISC members having internet connection in their own houses; they only contribute their part in our ISC.


Please think about the rest of students who would like to join as a member in our ISC but they haven’t PC or Internet connection.


So they are going to Browsing centre and spend money with their Expensive time to work with our ISC.


Suppose the webmaster introduces gift awards as “member of the Day” and “Today’s 500 points” , definitely it inspires all the members and working seriously with enjoyment . It will help to grow our ISC with good traffic and revenue.


Also so many students’ members (student having internet connection in their own houses and students ready to work in browsing centre) will join Our ISC family.


Another important point regarding “Today’s 500 points” gift award, it is not easy to earn 500 points in one day. It’s equal to ’one cricket player who got 100 Runs’. So it should be a record of the member at that Day. Hence they will also award cash price like Rs.50 per day.


I saw the response about this gift awards from others, they only suggested minimum amount of Rupees.
From this, sorry I can say they only thinking about present ISC member benefits but I am always thinking about the present and Future ISC member benefits.


Please I suggest one more think, if the webmaster will announce gift award it should be worth full amount about this type of gift ie.Rs.100 otherwise it is not worth full.


That’s why I suggested,

(1) “Member of the day” gift award

(2) “Today’s 500 points” gift award

(3) “Daily Referrals competition” gift award


Finally I can conclude about this types of gift award


* should increase traffic and revenue of ISC.


* More students are attracted from this gift award so ISCian strengths will increase.


* The most gap between the ISCian membership will reduces (ie. All are should become an active member and hence the gap b/w bronze and Silver, silver and Gold will reduces)


* Daily any one of our member gets benefited from worth full Cash award.


* Definitely we should reach our ISCian strengths as 1,00,000 with in one or two months.


Budget for this types of awards:

(1) “Member of the day” gift award = RS.3,000 for 30 days (one day Rs.100)

(2) “Today’s 500 points” gift award = RS.1,500 for 30 days (one day Rs.50)

(3) “Daily Referrals competition” gift award = RS.750 for 30 days (one day Rs.25)

If you think this response is good feel free to respond me otherwise please sorry for this and forbear this.


Regards,
5stararun…

Hi Tony,

Thanks for the initiation to share the revenue and the announcement of suggest a prize and get a prize is much suitable regarding our discussion.okay !! i will write my suggestion.

1)Regarding suggestion i express my view. I don't blame editors(**Me too an Editor, so only i boldly write this statement**). But it is my general view. You can make a separate category as ""SELF-WRITTEN"". In this category members can submit their self written article in any sub category like sports, travel , general. And editing this self written article is left to the webmasters and chief editors so that the high cash credit can reach the members pocket.Let the ordinary editors not touch this category, ***including myself.***

2)ISC can monitor the highest page hits of a resource for a week or a month and also twice or thrice in a financial year , which brought in more visitors to ISC this directly relates to the quality of resource and traffic to ISC AND award the contributor with CASH.

If you implement the suggestion (2), then members will start to think what if i contribute at current scenario will bring visitors to my resource ; this is what ultimately required for the growth of a member and ISC.

Regards,
Lenin

Yes Absolutely right thing written by previous post by members.

I do agree with them that some Credit Point should be given to who, who are posting self typed but good improved messages responces.

By this, members will be type by self, even for credit cash points their typing skill also become good by doing this.

Each member will post every message in his own language, by this his english also be get improved.

On other hand, we can offer some new thread as new year is coming on head, that is, Daily, Weekly, Monthly Competition should be arrange in ISC.

Daily Winner, i.e. Man of the Day.
Weekly, as same today's Member of WeeK.

Good Resource post member will get some addition benifit in his sharing.

Also, Mr. Tony anounced that he is willinness to "We" by good prizes, to who are the Winner in subject various.

Tony, here are list of prizes which you can offer to ISC members,

1] Member of Month :- Some useful material or thing that will be useful to him/her in day life [like mobile handset[below Rs. 2000], Pen-drive, some computer books ]

2] Member of the Week :- Some good materials or thing which can need him atleast like... [ Pen, Books, cash points, membership point +100]

3] Mmber of Week :- Additional 75 to 100 points to who get Top in the posting and rating .. subjected to posts and the quality.


This is my !dea Tony.

At last its on you, and the WebMaster, who arranges the Management for this Site.

Thanking you for reverting my !dea.

1. Member of the day is a very good idea.
2. We can increase amount of cash paid for the current "cash payment programmes"
3. Amount paid for the best resource or for referring a new member, member of the week / month can be increased
4. Start the cash payment awards for member who actively guides new members



Author: drsachin    21 Dec 2008Member Level: DiamondRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 1

We can monitor the traffic for posts & the member whose resource/ posts get more traffic can be given cash rewards


Author: drsachin    21 Dec 2008Member Level: DiamondRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 2

1. Cash credits given for links e. g. yahoo answers can be increased
2. A member who comes with a new good idea which can be implemented & which can bring a lot of traffic , can be considered for cash awards



Author: Vandana     21 Dec 2008Member Level: DiamondRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 4

Tony,
In addition to my previous suggestions, I would like to add one more:
You have stated that new members who get their first $100 from GoogleAdSense revenue would be eligible for a cash prize. It would be nice if you could similarly announce cash prizes for those reaching $30, $50, and $80 (naturally,smaller cash amounts as prizes!). After all, ISC's main earning avenue are these ads and these ads are there because of the members. Moreover, it does take quite some time to reach that $100, so do consider my suggestion to motivate members to that finish line - let the tortoises (like me!!) who, due to having regular jobs cannot really log on to ISC and post on a daily basis for hours & hours, win, too!

Also,could you announce similar cash prizes at the IRC site too?

this is a good suggestion .

also please increase the cash amount of the question papers as we are finding very hard to submit the old question paper.

but you give only one rupee that is very very less. son increase the amount for the question papers

this will be new prize for members.



Author: nikhila    21 Dec 2008Member Level: DiamondRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 3

Hi Tony,
it`s really a very good and appreciable idea to share revenue with the members. My suggestion is to increase cash credits for question papers as you know pretty well it`s very time taking process to submit it and also it will be good if you announce some credits to the members by keeping certain point levels like if they reach 1000 pointa some cash credits and if they reach 2500 some more like so.

Hi,

Cash prize can be given to members based on the points they reach. For eg.

500 points - Rs. 100/-
1000 points - Rs.150/-
1500 points - Rs. 200/-

Also cash prize for each day topper and Monthly toppers.

This will encourage all members to actively participate.

Hi Tony,

Good decision. It will definitely increase the traffic to this site. Apart from that members will be happy when you want to share your happiness by giving prizes.

Cash prizes can be awarded for best resource, best forum and the forum and resource which receive more responses.

Active member of the day also can be given to encourage members to participate more actively.

Yet another suggestion that popped in my brain: you could award special cash prizes for those members whose Resource posts appear in the top 10 of Google Search - I personally feel that is an incredible achievement as Google is the most sought-after in the world as a search engine. So somebody,somewhere in the world may just click on the member's link and read that resource, and perhaps joining up as a member, providing referrals....starting a nice chain with increasing traffic to ISC.

I just received an email from Yahoo stating that my answer got 10 points as 'best answer'. So how about some good cash credits for every yahoo link that gets a best answer? After all, it is through answering at yahoo and providing links to ISC that the traffic here has also increased.

Author: Tony    26 Dec 2008Member Level: PlatinumRating: 2 out of 52 out of 5     Points: 3

Vandana,

We don't have any problem in giving prizes for great resources. However,it is hard to award prizes for "Resource posts appear in the top 10 of Google Search" - the question will be top 10 results for what keywords? Determining that will be really hard. It is possible that every resource will appear in top 10 results for some weired keywords or phrases.

As of now, we do not have any special points for 'Best Answers' in Yahoo. We may consider it in future.

I have got an idea. Why dont we give a gift or a cash prize to a member who is always active and who has been awarded the member of the week or member of the month twice or thrice continuously. I am suggesting this because most of the members are active only for certain period. They do not perform consistently. So this will benefit a true ISCian

My suggestion is after the members reach a level of points they can be given SODEXHO PASSES or the site itself can have some gifts and gadgets like mp3 players or thumb drives or anything like that and each gadget can have certain points value. After the members reach the points value or the points limit they can buy it online.

Hi Tony

Its good to hear that ISC is in profits, and i congratulate all the members for this achievements.

and coming to the cool prize section i have many suggestion for it

which can be useful for the members.

This suggestion are nothing but the old rules of the ISC like

*every member of the week should be given 500.
*For every question paper posted cash credited should be again
increased to Rs 5
*Every member of the month should be given 1000 cash credit.
*And any new rule which is made should apply on the new members
only

Hi Tony,

Even I too agree with santosh regarding member of the week and member of the month. Earlier forums was very very interesting. The topics used to be very interesting and a lot of responses used to be there. Now, the interest has also reduced in old members since the prize money is reduced. If possible you may rethink of this issue. If funds position suits, then you may judge about giving the awards.

HI Tony i do agree with the sharing of the revenue you have decided to implement .
As said above i too request you to kindly increase the question paper amount it is ver very meagre.

And also it is the best suggestion to give prize for the highest traffic visited resource as that resources brought many traffic as well as revenue to isc

My suggestion for keep up the members and add more members is,

Offer a Rs.1/day visit and resources.

Thanking you!

Nemish is right........I am agree with you nemish.
We can give a cash credit to the best resource of the day/week
It will help inspired the members to post various self written resources to the ISC, because cash credit related with this matter.

The best suggestion to give prize for the highest traffic visited resource as that resources brought many traffic as well as revenue to isc

Thanks and regards

Hi Tony I really appreciate that the India study editors and mentors are very good and very nice.I think that it's terrific that you are giving rs.250 for suggesting a prize.I really like this.There are few things that you can do:-

1)Increase the cash credits for question paper submission.

2)Increase the cash credit for inviting a friend.

3)Giving cash credits for the funniest photo submission.

4)Giving cash credits daily for making the highest points as this will increase the traffic also.

One suggestion has come in my mind right now when I was reading this forum, which I feel will improve the quality level of discussions in forum.

The prize for the members who use proper English with correct grammar and spellings in their discussions.I do not mean to say that I am always correct.But sometimes I have seen members writing very poor english which disappoints.

Good Luck and take care

Hi Tony,

I have an idea for a competition which would really be interesting.

What you can do is that you start a story writing contest, providing the first few lines or a paragraph of the same. After that, each of the contestants can add his/her paragraph and in the end we can get a story, after of course the editing that needs to be done by the moderator. The story thus obtained can be sold off to any publisher with mutual consent of the contestants and the revenue can be shared accordingly and the prizes also can be distributed.

We can start giving good books as prizes for members who win various contests in ISC. This will be a good gift especially for students.

These type of channels are always welcome for earning revenue.....
Now a days revenue channels are increased in India for example ISC. so the awards and prize that were given could be increased as by giving educational cds........ this will lead to more peoples to attract towards this channel.
I have know about this channel by my friend...... very lately... by giving this type of educational cds will lead school and colleges to know about this channel.

Hi Tony,
It is really very thoughful of you. As a new member I would suggest that some incentive can be given to members at bronze and silver level as they are in a exploring stage and they need a push to work harder. An inscentive would be a good begining and for that you can think on following lines :
a) Incresing the inscentive on question paper submission
b) Essay writing/ story writing contest
c) Post a confusing picture / Sketch and ask the members to analyse and write min five lines on what they see in the picture but their writing should have an essence. This is something which would be a unique feature of ISC.

Hi Tony,

Some cash credit should be given for innovative ideas given by ISC members for overall improvement of ISC.
E.g. 1. Someone pointing out a fault in the website and giving suggestion to correct that
2. Someone giving a different look and feel for the website

Banshi.
