Restrict Service creation and Bump feature.

I earned my Ist dollar through SEOclerk. Its great place to make huge $$$ , But now its spam like hell. I have seen most of the people create same services again and again just to get on Ist page. They also bumping services like hell.

Last night I bump my service and after 3 minute Boom , My service was on 3rd Page what the hell ?

There is need of some restriction and moderation to make it better place. I think every user will be allowed to create 3 to 4 services. Plus every user will be allowed to bump only 1 service in 24 hours. I mean currently we have to wait 30 min after bumping one service for bumping another one , this need to be increased to 24 hours.

I think it's a good idea if Jordan add a minimum time for every service on homepage, like 5 minutes for every service

Perhaps the bump should be increased to what it once was, every 3 days.

If you see a user creating multiple services for this purpose, please report it ASAP (either clicking the report button or sending us a ticket) so we can ban the user. This is not acceptable.

Yeah, the bumping limit needs to be changed, 30 mins is far to low. @jordan 3 Days sounds good.

Jordan can you add an automatic feature which will restrict user from creating more than 4 services ?

That's no good, people should be allowed to create as many services as they want, as long as they are unique. The solution to this should be to stop people creating duplicate services, not to stop people creating a lot of services. Almost every seller will have to remove gigs if this was to happen. For example... If only 4 gigs are allowed... I have these..

Signature Link on Xbox Live Fan
Signature Link on Forum Promotion
Banner Ad on Xbox Live Fan

Footer Link on SEO Mind

Which one should I remove? I want to sell all five of them.
Also, I have 5 websites, which I have a Sponsored Tweet Gigs listed for each and theres my personal Twitter too.
Reducing the number of gigs people can create in not the answer.

I agree with the 3 days to bump a service but I do not agree that it should be 3 days for each bump. I think 30 mins is good to bump another service and the 3 day rule should apply to bumping the same service. If sellers were only allowed to bump one service every 3 days, this would be no good either.

Now if a seller has say, 48 services and is doing 48 bumps in a day (1 every 30 mins for 24 hrs), then this is a problem and I would watch that seller and evaluate the feedback and comments they are receiving. And even worse, let's say the rule gets changed to 3 days to bump the same service again. Their maybe some sellers who will create 150 services so that they can continue bumping a new service every 30 mins (48 bumps a day for 3 days) to get around not being able to bump a service for 3 days and this could become a problem. I also believe that higher user levels should be rewarded with being able to bump more and level 1's should be restricted on the amount of bumps they are allowed. I advanced to level 2 with 4 services and wasn't bumping that often in the beginning due to the social bump feature and getting my Google+ account restricted for bumping once a day.

I was only bumping about once every 3 days and still managed to get sales. I figure, if you offer a good service you should get sales anyway.

I have also noticed an increase in bumped service since getting rid of the social bump feature and only having the manual bump.

In conclusion, I think the more you level up, the more you should be able to bump. User level 1 should be restricted with amounts of services they can offer (I agree with 3-4) and how many times they can bump a service (1 service every day and not each individual service, just one service a day). As you level up you should be able to bump more and offer more services. This will also weed out the spam and low quality services. As you level up, you get more privileges. That's how I think it should be.

@jordan Bro, I can see there are lot of level 3 or X Sellers who are creating services like this :-

5000 twitter followers for $1 - service 1
10000 twitter followers for $2 -- service 2
20000 twitter followers for $4--- service 3
Is this accepted ??
I too agree to go with 3 days bumping system.

Further i would also like to suggest one thing more , If some one is doing some mistake unknowingly, it would be good if he or she is alerted before taking any action (Ban or Infractions), so that they can get the change to know the mistake and not repeat the same.

It's the way it is. I don't support multi services with same features just to exploit bump feature, but just like every online business, you have to test out methods when is the best time to bump a service, track daily views, etc.

I can't tell if it's accepted or not but I personally think it should be accepted as long as you don't list 100 services. I have 500 FB post likes for $1 and I've also got 1,000 FB post likes for $2.

I believe it's easier for me to gain sales by offering these two, (since people have the chance to choose how much they're willing to spend on my service) but I'd never create 3000, 4000, 5000,6000,7000,8000 etc too with higher pricetags. That's spam and just plain stupid. If people just use their Extras in a good way they won't need to do anything so stupid as creating 10+ services with different pricetags just to be seen on the first page. A little bit of advertising, good services, being polite and offering great customer care does the trick in gaining multiple sales per day.
