Hedir Review : Community Bidding for advertisements

Community Bidding for advertisements

Hedir.com is growing exponentially and we will like to appreciate our community who is making it possible. Community bidding for advertisements is a way to appreciate our participating members with a free advertisement. This system is based on Hedir Points .

The process is very simple:-

For every post you earn Hedir points.
We will organize bidding for every month.
The person offering the maximum bid will get a free advertisement for the said 30 days.
Bidding will be based on Hedir points earned by the member.
Every month bidding post shall be announced on 15th and closed on 29th. That means, members will get 14 days to bid.
After winning the bid the respectively amount will be deducted from the members Hedir point account.

Where will the ad be placed in forum?
It will be placed in the Hedir Home Page. It will be a direct link to your website with Image alt tag.

What will be the size of the banner ad?
We have reserved 250x130 px for SuperMod, 250x120 px for Mod, and 250x50 px for Registered User. Your banner ad should fit within that.

The bidding system will start only after we get 25 votes in favor. We are looking forward for your active participation.

We are open for suggestions and feedback.

Thanks,
Norah

As long as it remains the meritocracy which it appears to be described as, count me in.

I'm already liking this site for that reason: the people who contribute seem to be rewarded well for it. It's like DMOZ with a clue. Smile

I'm happy with this system, it makes sense, plus it'll help encourage people to come and spend some time reviewing sites on HEDIR.

A great step forward.

Likewise, I think this is well handled. Open and clear meritocracy! Sounds like we have a benevolent and wise group leading Hedir "to infinity and beyond."

I was thinking, you are going to have most likely everybody to bid in one or another way for a overwhelming competition. Are you planning to post just one fixed ad for the 15 days?

If you are willing to do a wider coverage I have a suggestion: Get the top 5 or so bidding winners and rotate their ads in such a way that all of them get the same amount of exposure, in other words, give the same share of space to all the 5 winners.

fciguy, that sounds like a good idea since there will probably be lots of users bidding on this.
