I’m very happy to announce we have integrated a rewards program here on Blog Engage that will benefit our members from visiting and engaging with our community.
I will be doing many rewards so make sure to visit often and check out what is happening. So far I have created three rewards our members can earn and they are as follows.
The first is worth 25,000 points and is the Blog Engage Gold Membership Services. This can be achieved by visiting, commenting and liking us on Facebook.
The second is a Bronze membership. It’s a little easier to obtain and can be achieved by visiting, commenting and liking us on Facebook.
The third is a spotlight here on the community blog. We will write about your blog, share it with our readers and add you to the slider page for one full month.
To find out more simply click the little red rewards button in the top right of the Blog Engage website. Also over the next 24 hours I will trying to set it up so you also get points for voting, tweeting and more. Stay tuned and stay engaged!
If you see a little red flag anywhere on Blog Engage you can learn by hovering it. Then you will be told what can be done to earn more points.

That’s a good move brian. It will help users stay actively on BE. My suggestion would be that you could add some more activities to gain a reward. Because liking on FB and commenting can be done once. Then how can one reach 1000s of points ?

Hi Mani, I’m pretty new to this so I’m still learning how to successfully add new ways to gain points. Once I learn how to do it I hope to have points for all the Blog Engage activities. I would like to see submitting, commenting, tweeting, liking all be part of the points system. It’s just a little learning curve for me right now. make sure to visit often for updates!

Hi Karen, that’s so cool. Maybe eventually we can make a list of sites within the Blog Engage network that are using the program. This might be something beneficial for us to do. Best of luck and I’m glad visiting Blog Engage created some inspiration in your blogging.

I have to learn more, like how it tracks points. It doesn’t seem to give points for leaving comments or every visit to a different page, in fact visiting the same site 2x in one day doesn’t give more points than the 1st time. So it depends on how configurable it is and how much it ties into WordPress, realistically if I can reward people for commenting and then offer bonus prizes like free software or even gift cards for reaching milestones this may give truly great incentive.
I would also have to see how much pageload time and performance impact it would have. I see BlazingMinds is already using it.

Hi William, prior to sharing socially make sure you have connected with Facebook. This is the only way it will be able to award your points. click the rewards tab, connect using Facebook and also make sure you have not reached your 500 point limit for the day.

I tried RT, like and plus one a few times but it seems like the system doesn’t work properly as the points are not added. Did I miss something?
