How to become a “regular” link, under the fold
I’m not sure that anyone will find this terribly interesting, but I do try to apply a model as to what contests I link for the Caption Jam. I don’t have anything against any form of caption contest or blog contest, buy my is to recognize some of the contests I frequent. While anyone is pretty much free to self-link their contest of any type, I will directly link to contests based in part on the guidelines below.
Follow some form of consistency or schedule.
Be open over the weekend, if you want the link from the Caption Jam.
Have some form of winners or results, not an absolute, but I’m more likely to link contests that have some form of closure.
Easy to find on the site, (both the contest and the winners)
Political/current news content is preferred, but as you can see I only follow this somewhat myself
Start up a new contest, I’m likely to try to link to new contests, at least a couple of times, to see if they takeoff
Link back to OTB on a regular basis
Be popular or have the potential to be popular (this is pretty much up to you.)
Capture my interest, (An unknown variable, but also somewhat up to you)
I reserve the right to violate any of these guidelines as I feel necessary.
