OurWork

What (summary)

This project is targeted to allow featured wiki pages to be displayed on AboutUs's main page as well as category and portal pages.

Why this is important

This can be a new and promising source of revenue generation for AboutUs. Wiki Page owners will buy the right to have their respective pages put under the spotlight for a particular time period and price. This will help in revamping the user interface of current category and portal pages increasing user engagement. This will lead to more traffic to the featured pages as well as to these category and portal pages.

• We may also want to link this project with PromoteMe. For example, we could offer this as an additional and a more inviting offer to people who have already elected to promote their companies at AboutUs.
