Weekly or Monthly Competitions

I have created a poll in the forum where you can vote on weekly or monthly competitions. I’m thinking of moving to weekly competitions to increase the buzz of them. Right now monthly competitions are great, but since they are so far apart it can get lost in the mix. It also means for a whole month your team has to be on top of their game.

Moving to weekly competitions will create more frequent prizes and mix things up a bit. I think it’ll be exciting, so what do you think? So it’s time to vote now!

Server Maintenence Complete

The server had a security make over and everything looks to be working great. A few upgrades here and there but from what I can tell nothing has changed. The site was not hacked or broken into, this is me being proactive and hiring a security expert to check things over. There was a small bit of downtime, but very small!

Oh by the way..

All members have a surfing bonus of at least 20% for the rest of the day. This is because the new get a higher bonus for surfing 100 system didn’t know who surfed 100 yesturday, so I just told it that everyone did. Enjoy!

Good Delivery, Near 100% Rate

The past few days delivery has been pretty close if not at 100% Rate. What this means is if you set your Rate to 100 hits per day, you are getting 100 hits per day! If you have it set to 1000, you are getting 1000! This is something that StartXchange has to give you more control over your delivery of traffic. Some people prefer 100 per day, some want all the traffic they can get!

Green is current Rate
Yellow is where to change it.

The upgrade page now has singe month and whole year upgrade packages. The purchase page now has $10 and $20 packages.
