Contest is a plug-in which allows your members to compete with each other in Blog, Photo and Video contests. Each time creating a contest, contest owner can completely himself define the rules as well as the award to attract other members to take part in. Promote Contest is also a worth feature which generates a code to embed the contest to other external websites. That is to say, more people will know about your site via the contest and as a result, the traffic will be increased. However, this has not been the best feature yet. By installing Contest, you are completely able to make a little profit from its operation. Each time your members would like to publish or feature a contest, for example, an amount of money will be transferred into your account. Increasing traffic and making profit, what can be more interesting?
