Now Offering Credits for All Reviews

Thursday, August 5, 2010 | BY Andrew

2 months ago we spent some time brainstorming and discussing (thanks again to all who participated!) how to improve website review quantity and quality on Concept Feedback. A lot of people provided great ideas and alternatives, all of which went in to consideration during implementation. Earlier this week, we released credit system 3.0 (or something like that), which now offers credit rewards on all concept types (free, basic, mainstream and pro).

Credits can be earned in two ways: by reviewing any website (1 credit automatically) or by being awarded bonus credits (anywhere from 1-5 credits per review) by the concept owner for a great review. If bonus credits are not awarded by the concept owner within 1 week, Concept Feedback automatically distributes them based on vote count.

  • Free: 5 credits, 1 credit per award
  • Basic: 10 credits, 2 credits per award
  • Mainstream: 25 credits, 5 credits per award
  • Professional: 50 credits, 5 credits per award
Remember, credits can be used to any type of concept, including Premium Concepts (eventually, you may also be able to use them for Private and Expert website feedback). So go find some lonely concepts and earn some extra credits! If you have comments or additional ideas for the system, let us know, we're always listening!

Good job, I think it makes sense. Worst case scenario, you can always calibrate :)

Thanks Noel, and you're right - we can always adjust.

Glad you're a sucker for game mechanics! I wish everyone were like you :)

If the user has posted a concept and has not awarded the credits, then he should not be allowed to post another concept nor he should be allowed to review other concepts.

I must say there are still lot of flaws in your credit system.
