It is important that everyone know that crowd funding is a vital part of my vision for the redevelopment and growth of EMC2. I see it as a major resource to help the campaign beneficiary as well as the coin and the individual crowdfunding platform -- a win-win-win situation if executed properly.
Earlier I mentioned how strategic searching, in indiegogo search and outside of indiegogo search (via google, bing, and yahoo) can support the campaign. Moments ago I searched for The Havekes Project in bing then clicked on some links that I thought were associated with the campaign here are two of the links I clicked on:
http://forums.ageofconan.com/showthread.php?190939-Indiegogo-Science-Project-Fundraiser-request-for-philanthropy-by-Einsteinium-Fund-n&p=2118708&viewfull=1http://thecrowdfundingcentre.com/?page=project&id=1AUCFN&_escaped_fragment_=1AUCFNJust by virtue of the fact that I posted the links in this forum that action (if bct allows the links) creates 'back-links' or connections between this site and those sites.
Please use the following keywords to search google, bing, and yahoo: 'The Havekes Project Sleep Science Research Study: Memory Loss Due To Sleep Deprivation crowd funding' then click on all that are associated with indiegogo, bitcoin talk, and other social networking listings. This helps the campaign in multiple ways but in short it connects traffic associated with science research on sleep deprivation and memory loss to the crowd funding campaign.
There are many ways to support The Havekes Project. In addition to making connections via search engines we also want to make connections using social media. Indiegogo uses an algorithm called the ¨GoGo Factor¨ to rank campaigns, it takes many factors into consideration including: contributions amount, number of times campaign was shared, total views, campaign activity, etc ... The more engagement they see the more attention they will give us, most specifically getting on their home page.
Here are 10 ways to boost our campaign's gogo factor ranking using social media:
Facebook shares from unique accounts
Re-Tweets from unique accounts
Campaign Visits from real people
Google+ Shares from unique accounts
LinkedIn Shares
Del.icio.us Share

Let's get campaign stats up across the board. Let's make a meaningful impact with this campaign, with indiegogo, the CC industry, and the science community too.
