For example, to build awareness of the many ways it helps animals, a local animal shelter can conduct a \u201cFunniest Pet\u201d photo contest, where entrants post an image(s) to the organization\u2019s website, and then funnel visitors to the site by telling all of their friends and family via social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) to go to the website and vote for their image. In addition to the increased visits and added exposure to the site, with PhotoScramble, the non-profit has the option to request a small donation, such as $1, to vote for their favorite image as a way to raise additional funds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re helping organizations gain awareness and raise money by capitalizing on the popularity of camera phones and the ownership of high-quality digital cameras, not to mention social media,\u201d says PhotoScramble President and creator, Michael Connors. \u201cOur goal is to harness the addiction people have for taking, sharing and looking at photographs. The traffic it can bring to a company or non-profit\u2019s website is just phenomenal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>With PhotoScramble, non-profits can:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Increase traffic to their website<\/li>\n<li>Generate revenue via online donations and sales of photo gifts, prints, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Add interest and flair to an organization\u2019s own social networking sites<\/li>\n<li>Allow site visitors to vote for their favorite photo within a contest (and thus encourage viral marketing via social marketing networks)<\/li>\n<li>Avoid complex programming; contests are hosted by PhotoScramble\u2019s secure servers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Photoscramble charges a one-time account set-up fee of $125 (versus the $495 fee of some competitors), making it more affordable than its competitors. It is available in three per-contest pricing options, including a custom version that allows contests to blend seamlessly with an organization\u2019s website and branding.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople will find that our contest software is intuitive and easy to use, both for the company or organization running the contest as well as contest entrants,\u201d adds Connors. \u201cWe offer live support \u2013 and the social network sharing feature is amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>PhotoScramble goes the extra mile in bringing additional traffic to a non-profit\u2019s website by providing access to all of their clients\u2019 contests via the PhotoScramble website (though clients can opt out of this feature), making it a \u201cphoto contest portal\u201d for hobby and professional photographers. This added \u201cin link\u201d to clients\u2019 sites is one way in which it differs from its competitors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cImagine what will happen when an individual posts an image on your photo contest,\u201d says Connors. \u201cYou not only get his visit to your site, but all of his friends on Facebook or his LinkedIn contacts he tells to visit your site and vote for his photo \u2013 people who have not yet been exposed to your organization\u2019s website.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>PhotoScramble is the brainchild of WD Web, and sister company of MorePhotos, an internet photo sales resource and LabImages, an e-commerce solution for photography labs.
