WC Charity & Sub Drive - Day 5
And some promotional material
Tuesday, November 6, 2007 by Zoomba | Discussion: WinCustomize News
Day 5 of the drive has come and gone. We're making steady progress, but seeing a bit of a slow-down already. This must be fixed! Here are the numbers as of end of the day, November 5th:
- Subscriptions: 219 (10.95% of goal)
- Charity Dollars Raised: $715.35 (14.31% of goal)
At current daily averages, we will have 1,927 subscriptions and have raised $6,295.08 for Childs Play. As you can see, we've already dipped below our subscription target if we don't maintain a higher pace. We're also sliding on charity dollars raised, and I know everyone wants to see us hit that $5,000 goal!
Now, a lot of you have already done your part by buying subs and skins, and I can't thank you enough, but we still have 39 days to go, and a lot of ground to cover. One question I've been asked by several people is how can they help promote the drive and spread the word.
Banners & Ads
If you run any sort of ad on your web page, or have space where you could put a few images without breaking the layout of your page, we have a few images you might be able to use.
When linking to the charity drive, you can add "?cpRef=YOURSITEHERE" to the end of the URL. This will allow me to track who is linking to us from where, and how much traffic you're sending our way. Sites that send us a lot of traffic will be thanked in these regular updates.
As an example, if I were to link this off my own site, the link would look like this: <a href="https://www.wincustomize.com/charity.aspx?cpRef=evilsysadmin.net">
Here are the images you can use:

To everyone who supports the drive by helping spread the word on their site and beyond, thank you!

Let me know if any of them do subscribe/purchase. I'd be interested in hearing how well that works out.

Zubaz also had a great tip to use the banners as a signature in e-mails.
