WAR Community Promotion Initiative - WCPI

A new program called the WAR Community Promotion Initiative, or WCPI for short, has begun over at Warhammer Alliance. It is an effort to get sites of WAR seen, heard, and discovered by the community. Inspired by our very own Age of Blogging.

Here's what you need:
  • An active WAR fansite/blog/forum/podcast/other community resource (active meaning at least one post a week)
  • Willingness to promote other sites such as yourself!

Here's how it works:
  • At least once a week, promote someone else in the WCPI via a link and description/content
  • Tell them you did it, and where!

That's it! The more who participate, the more likelihood that you will get promoted by another site. And you'll have a chance to talk to other sites about further cross-promotion opportunities as well. With a membership requirement of 4 cross-promotion posts a month, it's easy for anyone to get involved and also get promoted!

Warhammer Alliance knows that bonus incentives can't hurt, so they're throwing in the following for all active participating WCPI members:
  • New usergroup with accompanying title, "WAR Lord"
  • Green Colored username
  • Double the PM box capacity (100 messages as opposed to 50)
  • Ability to create blogs on Warhammer Alliance via the User CP
  • Custom avatar request (restrained to the standard dimensions we use with a 1 pixel black border)
  • Access to a private forum for the WCPI
  • Warhammer Alliance will frontpage/promote selected content pieces from your site every month
Each month, they will tally the points, and the WCPI member with the most points will be prominently featured for a week on Warhammer Alliance in a Monthly Community Focus!

So if you are an active blogger head on over to Warhammer Alliance and check it out!
