Thanks for your reply, in terms of tags/categories currently the site supports the following categories:
- Writing
- Design
- Giveaway
- Photo
- Other
This is done via tags and allows the category to be set in the contest creation and then the feed can be filtered its respective category.
Also great to see that you think the site could provide value, that's what I was hoping to achieve from this first development update. I think there is a lot of other features that can take the site forward, but as you can imagine it's a long road.
In the next couple of weeks, I hope to release a new version that cleans up a few bugs and provides a few other key features and then I will start to push it around a little more. With that said, the first version does a working prototype that does all the features mentioned in this post. You can check it out here:
Note: It's pretty bare at the moment in terms of contests and without users, part of my goal to provide visibility to smaller contests cannot be achieved, but definitely shows where I'm starting from :)
