Weekly challenge

i agreed ...

Hi guys! Our bonus system is like a chance for new members to gain reputation rapidly and see how everything performs, so if you see winner designers usually are new members. Of course we are trying to motivate everyone by offering some useful stuff on our regular challenges. There are some other ways how to grow reputation, not only sales. For example make some good tutorials (we really need those, so you have a spot!) or share with others some free models of yours. It's just a few ways!

Burak, please tell me your experience on other platforms where people sell "tons" of models. Do they have so much events running at one time? Have you ever got some prizes from them?

I m member of turbosquid too but they dont have prize thing them. Your weekly challenge is good idea but people just win prizde just upload their models. I think selling models must be important too alex

The way I see it, this is a good mechanic to get new members to the site AND make them active as well. Knowing there is this kind of contest, the new guys are more inclined to upload here a lot more models than they normally would and this is good for the entire site because more models means there's a greater diversity of products available thus more possible clients will arrive on the site based on their keyword searches throughout google or other search engines.
So even thou this means you may never get to win this challenge, if you look at the bigger picture, this contest might actually help you by drawing in more visitors on the site and thus possible clients for your products and everyone else's.
I believe this is a win-win situation either way.
