I only promote things I like, but I get that most people don't care. And you can't even blame them: any advertising company doesn't care, and is totally fine taking offers from competitors.
There are not many members who pay attention to what they promote.
The last time I applied for a gambling campaign, it turned out that that casino did not allow users from my country to register. I withdrew my application because there was no possibility to even test the platform. I cannot represent them (even if only through a signature) if I cannot have personal experience with them.
I'm not saying this because I'm a moral stone, I just can't represent something I know nothing about, I don't even have a chance to find out.
That's not their job, it's up to the campaign manager to get the best candidates.
I meant the perception of understanding the purpose of sig. campaigns. If they have already joined the signature campaign, they need to know the very essence of the existence of campaigns. A large number of users only know what the payment rate is and how many posts are needed per week. I got the impression that it is considered, hey, there is already a lot of money behind the name of the signature campaign, just needs to come and get his share.
I'd say it depends. I'll argue from my own perspective: I've been in a casino campaign in the past. I'm not much into gambling, and the posts (
1,
2) I made in their ANN thread weren't really "participating". And yet:
Similar to Loyce, he didn't do anything special, he was just being himself and took care of his eco-system of threads and helped out people when needed - which is exactly what you want from a forum member.
This is how I like it: the campaign chooses candidates based on how they're already posting, and all that's expected from them is to continue that way.
SirJohnVonSlotty is a very intelligent person with very good reasoning. Much earlier, before you participated in his campaign, he gave an excellent summary of why to choose one participant instead of another. I wouldn't have much to add here.
(I believe that translating will not be a problem for you)
Moraš se ubaciti u naše šuze i razmišljati kao advertiser da shvatiš situaciju.
Zakupom siga i avatara ne dobiješ samo nove postove, već i postojeće postove/threadove. Što je autor popularniji na forumu i što više "bitnijih" threadova vodi, to ti je veći presence kao oglasivacu. Osobno sam to segmentirao na posting value i historical value.
Ajmo reć da se želim oglašavati na našem boardu. Jedan FatFork ima ogroman historical value, dok Slackovic ima ogroman posting value. Ak imaš budget, ideš na obojcu, ako nemaš, ideš samo na jednog - u ovom slučaju bi išao na FatForka jer ima ogroman historical value, frajer owna dosta kvalitetnih threadova i ažurira ih često. Znači instantno from day 1 ću imat ogroman presence kao brand na forumu. (ako ovo nije istina, slobodno ignorirajte imena i iskoristite ovo kao neki random primjer za historical vs posting value).
Isto tako ako usporediš Loycea i Efialisa na stranim boardovima, prije bi išao na Loycea jer owna znatno više toga na forumu i historical value njegovog accounta je through the roof.
Uvjeren sam da dosta managera koji vode te kampanje ne razmisljaju tako, ali čisto ti htio napomenuti da ne zaboraviš taj historical value. To je dio koji instantno donese dosta prometa, pogotovo ako osoba owna neki užasno popularni thread i konstantno ga ažurira.
