Create design contest site with “Make Contest” software

“Make Contest” is crowdsourcing contest software for starting your own design contest site just like 99designs.com and crowdspring.com. Create a community where Contest Holders can launch contests and Designers can compete for the prize on offer.

Using our flexible, powerful and reliable contest software, you can now turn your brilliant crowdsourcing ideas into highly profitable Web 2.0 websites.

Contest Holders can run “design contest” in a chosen category (logo design, stationery design, web design, advertising, graphic design, T-shirt design, or even text writing contest.), choose how much they are willing to pay for a design, and how long the contest should last. Paid contest listing enhancements are available: hide contest from search engines (for private contests), blind (designers cannot see each other entries), bold listing title, highlighted listing title, and urgent. Depending on site settings, the Contest Holder may be required to run “Guaranteed Contest” by depositing contest prize money or can launch the design or writing contest without prepayment.

Once a contest is launched, Designers can submit their works. Email notification system, ratings, comments, and account management make contests more dynamic and fun for both Contest Holders and Designers.

The Site Owner has full control of the site and an overview of site stats with a dashboard. The Site Owner can modify site settings, set fees, change templates, add or remove pages, categories and menus, as well as manage contests, users, comments and ratings, and generate payments to winners.

The design contest script runs on PHP + MySQL and is highly customizable: multiple language support, flexible script settings, template-driven design, Search Engine-Friendly URLs, installation wizard, and professional support from the developers of the script will help you run your own 99designs clone-site in minutes!
