New Feature: User Submitted Links
A few days ago, we hinted at a possibility of some new features around Camp Sonic – features which would help integrate our community deeper into the greater Sonic community. The first of those features which recently launched is none other than our “User Submitted Links“.
User Submitted Links is our way of allowing everyday viewers of Camp Sonic to share their discoveries far and wide, as well as our personal way of giving back to the Sonic Community. There are A LOT of awesome sites and resources out there that go by unseen do to the fact that it can be hard to break into the Sonic Community. With User Submitted Links we’re giving new faces a way to help promote their sites – while at the same time giving readers here a constant flow of enjoyable reading material & media.
It’s very simple. Anyone can Submit a Link (URL, Title, Short Description) which will immediately go into a moderation queue. Once approved, that link will wait in line to be shared with our viewers on every page of Camp Sonic for at least 24 hours.
This provides a wonderful new way to distribute Sonic & SEGA related content from around the web, and also allows webmasters who can’t afford advertising to easily promote interesting content on their sites. There is no link-back required, no registration, heck – we don’t even ask for an email address. The only thing we do ask is that you take care to only submit High Quality content which our readers will enjoy. You know, things like:
- Sonic related articles, links, videos, music, art.
- SEGA related articles, links, videos, etc.
- Please link to the specific article rather than a homepage.
- If linking to a Forum post, please use the specific post’s permalink.
- Anything else the SONIC community may find interesting!
On a final note, I hope that you’ll all keep an eye on the user submitted links as they roll in. You can find them in the right menu, currently under the “Recently Discussed” block. We’ll try to update it with awesome content every 2 hours or so, that way there’s always something new to see!
