Inviting moderators: here's your chance to help Good-Tutorials

Posted on July 12, 2007 by Zach Holman / 7 comments

As you might have heard, the tutorials showing up on Good-Tutorials are rated on by a team of moderators. The good ones make the front page, the bad ones don't. The big hook about this approach is that you need to have a healthy amount of good people at the helm helping pick out which tutorials are good and which aren't so good. We've been doing a pretty good job since launch in keeping up with the queue of submitted tutorials- most tutorials are reviewed with 24 hours of submission, which is a big change from traditional review periods. But, again, the more qualified people we can get working on this the better.

It's a volunteer position, but all we ask is to log in every day or every other day, rate a few tutorials and that's about it. If you're already on a near-daily basis and seem to understand which tutorials you like and which you don't, you're exactly the person we're looking for. In the future there will be additional, more tangible benefits for those moderators that have been dependable and überhelpful. In the meantime, if you're interested, send me an email to goodness ./at/. good-tutorials.com. In the email, include just one simple sentence as to why you think you'd be a good fit. Also include your Good-Tutorials username- that's helpful in seeing how active you've been on the site in the past.
