Calling all Lurkers!

Okay, so I’ve come to a predicament in my blogging journey with Default Prime. I can get the posts up, break some stories, review the games, and get the traffic. As of now, I’m averaging about 1,500 unique hits/day – but I just can’t get the comments…

So what I’ve come up with, is an incentive for commentors, and here’s what those are:

If you are one of the top 5 commentors each month, you will get:

• Your blog linked to on an individual post, as well as a mention of your username, and a little description of your blog. That is, you’re link will be reaching about 60,000 people each month, on a page rank 3 website.

If you are the top commenter for the month, there is even more of an incentive for you:

• Everything posted above will happen, as well:
• We will write a post about your blog with a link. That means you’re getting linked to on a Page Rank 3 website reaching about 60,000 page views/month
• You will win the video game of the month – and if it’s a multi-console release, you’ll get to pick which system you’ll get it on
• You will get listed in the member of the month on the sidebar (I’m going to add that soon), and it will have your avatar, and a link to your website along with a username.

That’s about it for the incentives. I mean, I’m trying to spur up conversation here, and encourage a community to join and continue to comment hopefully without the incentives. That beside, all of this is going to start now, and I will make a post either tonight or tomorrow on what the game of the month is that you can win. Please register for this blog and use that username as it would be easier for me to count the comments although it’s not required, and if you want, you can subscribe to our RSS feed at http://feeds2.feedburner.com/DefaultPrime, so you know when new posts are up on the site and you can comment!

I’d like to get your guys’ feedback on the idea, and if you have any questions or comments, you can contact me at tips@defaultprime.com. See ya!

EDIT: Also, keep the SAME username when commenting on posts, or I will allocate comments to another username, and it won’t count towards you.

EDIT EDIT: I’m going to post all of the game of the month’s here, while also making an individual post for them on the front page. So this will be like the “hub” for all of the information as it will.

Game of the Month:

May/June 2009 – Plants vs. Zombies
