User Generated Content

Build it and they will come is not always the case. Vanessa Fax writes a decent post about launching a user generated component on your site. Shes got a couple of really great ideas:
  • Seed the content before you launch
  • Invite targeted users to seed that content and test the platform
  • Reward contributors
  • Good oversight to moderate quality
  • Use a focused approach
  • Make the experience as engaging as possible for users
