    I liked the whole Idea and I think 300 words or more than that would be ok.

    300 words seems to be good, but why not keep it a little fluid? What matters is that we get quality articles, rather than having a strict word limit, right?

    Thumbs up some suggestions

    Sir i request u to make fair rules i mean plz dont make age limit as in many web contests they repeat the the same thing- u should be 18 or above. Students can also contribut good articles and we can also share our knowledge that some may not know.

    I have one question too?
    in article what would be the topic can it be a review or info about something?and the idea of this contest is awesome

    Hope i get a positive reply from admin and moderator

    There might be issues paying people below 18. maybe the
    parent/guardian can be paid.

    dear administrator,

    I have recently switched from Home 750 unlimited to Home combo C 500 + at nightduring the free hour on Utorrents I get a speed for 40 to 50 kbps max however if i give a commond of for 3 to 4 utorrents to b e donwnloaded simultaneously, then the average speed of is somewhere near 120 kbps. but in the proscess the torrents are not fully downloaded completely in the same night. I mostly download movies and my son dowloads games. Movies are of 700 to 1 gb and games are of 2.5 gb to 3.5 gb size. Is there any method by with a single game ( of 2.5 gb ) can be download the same night.
    I understand that max speed can be 225 kbps to 250 kbps.

    thanks in anticipation of a reply.

    shaikh7538, Kindly start a new thread under BSNL broadband stating your issue.

    This is not the place to post your issue.

    Default India Broadband site and paid for articles

    My idea is that we can have our members submit their articles and the ones which get accepted for publishing on would get paid a set amount per published article .
    When I say those articles which get accepted will get paid I mean to say that this way we can keep the bull crap out and only genuine good article writeups would get paid... say about 10-15 new articles per day or something on those lines.

    Articles would be posted by members themselves as I can create their id's there so their articles will have their names on them.. but before posting they would have to get an approval by sending the articles to either me or one of the mods to make sure they are of acceptable quality.

    This can go on for as long as there are members willing to make some money out of this...

    What do you think about this and how much do you think should one get paid per article?
    I would say atleast 300 words minimum and anything above that would be acceptable..

    What do you guys say? This way there wont be a flood of spam on the forum either and we can create a huge resourcefull blog for the future generations that would come looking for information here.

    hi,
    good idea here but would be better to post a final page with details like;
    - link to contact reviewer
    - categories of articles
    - what will be amt per category
    - time within money is paid and how
    - other details

    since its one's idea and to explore it is to give people a bit benefit of making it a success by allowing them the comfort and joy

    you can drop private msg to take it further

    Can some one take the pain of putting a framework of terms and conditions?


    I would love to get this thing started by the end of the day today...

    It could be a review of a gadget, home appliance, services or anything related to topics on the forum. You can also provide news items with your own views on it and so on.

    The only thing is that content should not be copied from any where...

    To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 100 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
