New 🚩 Can we classify forums that do basically monthly posting contests as paid to post forums?

[King Belieal]

There are some forums that organize monthly posting contests on their platforms. They pay the top posters and they hold these contests as regular as every month.

Can we classify such forums as paid to post?

 

[Ofonime]

I will call it contest forum because they Specialize only on contest if they want to be call a pro forum then they should also pay for our post contribution

 

[Fidelia]

I would classify them as paid to post forums. That's because they pay for the posting activities of people in the contest.

Yes there are quite a few such forums and I am part of 2 such forums and won contents on one and fairly new on another.

If a forum do monthly contests I believe it's not a paid to post website because they can stopped it anytime it's better I post on forum that has reward for my post

That's very true. But even paid to post forums also stop at anytime and people lose funds. The case of Bizdustry comes to mind.

Paid to post means you earn from your posts, contest means only the winners will earn. So forums that run contests are not paid to post

Forums which only pay the content winners are not considered paid to post forums, since some who post are not paid.

 

[eldavis]

In a way they can also be considered to be a paid to post forum, but definitely not the regular one we know.

 

[Sanjeev]

The forums which pay for the monthly contest is not PTP. They pay for winning the contest not for the posts.

 

[Ratine]

They are not paid to post forums as long as they only pay for the contest winners.

 

[Kera]

You are right on this. With paid to post forums, every post counts. I am sure that forums that pay for contests only have posts of winners count.

 

[Ratine]

I think those forums can't be classified as paid to post sites because they don't pay users for posting.

 

[Stardom22]

For me l can say that those are non paying forums. Because they don't pay per the posts made.

Nope, since some people who post are not paid. Forums which only pay the contest winners are not considered paid to post forums,
