    I am looking for people to beta test the new group feature on my free classified ads site http://www.Jihoy.com.

    It has description area (edit with text editor to enable html), message board, allow pictures, files uploads, basic member manage features. I am also in the process of linking my site's event signup management with group feature. Group listings.

    http://www.jihoy.com/social/groups

    So what I need is people who'd test the site, create a group on my site, signup some people, create some contents, and make it look alive. The winner will be determined based on contents, page views, and new members signups for that month. I will be tracking IPs to reduce cheating.

    $50 for 1st place winner
    $30 for 2nd place winner
    $15 for 3rd place winner

    This is a monthly contest, so if you don't win the first month, you can keep on playing for the next month.

    Since we are just starting out, chances are, there are probably a lot of errors, that's why it's a beta test. Later on, I will raise prizes as groups gets larger.

    If you have any feedbacks or suggestions, please don't hestitate to email me at

    Post here if you are interested in participating.

    Hi Baronid, thanks for replying. Basically, the group that win will have the most number of new members signups, contents and traffic will also play a role. It has to be a real group with real people and activities.

    I don't want people to be registering hundreds of dummy accounts, this is an advertising/marketing/promotion contest, not a data entry one. So you will have to try and get people to signup. You can create multiple groups if you want, but it's the lagest 3 groups that will win the prize.
