400$’s up for grabs in February along with funky new features!
Following the phenomenal success of our Cosmotourist Scout competition in January we have decided to follow on with our next competition!
You may well have already noticed our new feature -Top Travel Tips on the homepage- this feature is in fact the core of our new competition. We are looking for the top travel tip for the month of February, in other words the tip that receives the most ratings from other users.
The winner featuring on the ranking table of the homepage with the top travel tip at 0:00hrs (GMT+1) on the 1st of March will receive 400 US $!!
How to take part:
1) Add a travel tip by going to the Quick Links box on the left hand-side of the homepage and selecting Add a Review.
2) Make your travel tip as interesting and exciting as possible. Make sure that it is mapped as deeply into the hierarchy of the site as possible i.e.: not only to the relevant city or region but when possible also the hotel or attraction in question. Remember that content plays an important role in making a travel tip enjoyable. Watch your spelling and grammar to make sure that you produce as good a quality work as possible-this significantly improves the readability of your work for others.
3) Then all you need to do is invite your friends to sign up at www.cosmotourist.com to rate your work. The more positive ratings your travel tip gets, the higher your status rises in the ranking table for the top travel tip in February. (Remember: a user can only rate your travel tip once! Any users who manipulate the rules will be disqualified from the competition.)
Have fun scaling the ranking table with your Top Travel Tip for February and who know perhaps you will be 400$’s richer by the end of the month!New Features on Cosmotourist: 1) Add Object: Once you reach the status of Tourist you can add your own objects to the site i.e.: attractions, hotels, youth hostels, restaurants etc. This means that you needn’t send editorial emails any longer asking for features to be added to the site when you can’t find them. This should save you a lot of time and bother. To add a new object, simply go the city in question and click on the relevant tab Lodging, Eat & Drink or Attractions. At the bottom of the page you will find a link entitled, Didn’t find the attraction your where looking for? Please add it to Cosmotourist! Simply click here to add your new object. Before you add a new object please make sure that that it is definitely not already included on the site and be as precise as possible about the information you enter about the new object. If you don’t know the precise postcode or address you will be asked to plot the location on a map, please be as precise as you can here.
2) New Object Types: You will also see that we added new object types under the tab Lodging including: Hotels, Hostels, Camping Grounds, Condos, B&Bs, Vacation Homes and under the tab Eat & Drink including: Restaurants, Bars/Pubs, Clubs, Cafes. This again enables you to be more precise with your postings.
