Here are a few guidelines to posting your event.
- Please take the time to list as much info on the details and location as you can. Even a link to a map would help. Most of our members are located in Upstate NY, if anyone is gonna want to go to your event we need to know where it is and how to get to it.
- Properly format your post. Line breaks, and bbcode are your friend. Feel free to use the bold, underline and other post formatting tags that are available. Font sizes, colors and wired justification should be kept to a minimum. Having huge yellow fonts looks nasty and makes users want to click the back button. Please don't SHOUT USING ALL CAPS, in your post or post title.
- Flyers and other images are encouraged. But, please keep the sizes reasonable. Clickable thumbnails would be best and your post will load faster. Free image hosting sites such as imageshack give you already formatted links to cut and paste thumbnails.
- Say no to spam. When posting your event please give more info than just a link to your website. A brief blurb about the event, the performers and whatnot is nice. We appreciate you wanting to get traffic to your site, but spamming on ours isn't a good way to get it. You can get your website added to the links page by contacting us.
- Hey check this out. We have an events link on the top of every page. Contact us to get your event added to the calendar.
Realize that this is a slow forum. Stick around and please actively post, answer questions and such regarding your event. Maybe even engage is some discussion in some other areas of the forum. The less lazy your are in promoting your event here the more likely people are to go to it.
edit: please use consistency in the titles. it makes for easier searching.
date - event - location is the most effective and clear way.
thanks! |
