Tips for applicants using the Free Charity Cars Site

DO as many of the things you can to gain extra votes and karma as you set up your profile and get things started. POST your story of why you need to get a car, and what has kept you unable to get one on your own. UPLOAD PICTURES- the first ten get you ten extra votes. Once you have your first 100 votes, turn your APPLICATION in, which will also get you five extra votes. PROMOTE Free Charity Cars on your social networks. If you add their link,you'll get a few extra points when people click on them and view your profile. You can also promote in other ways, such as making fliers and passing them out, and writing an email to your friends and asking them to join. MAKE A VIDEO if you can, and you'll get an extra 25 points when you upload it.

VOTE for other applicants. This increases your Karma, helps them out, and is likely to encourage them to read your story and vote for you. You can vote for as many people as you want once a day, so there's no reason not to make a bunch of new friends.

LEARN TO SPEED VOTE

Once you start to have a long list of friends, you'll find voting for all of them daily may take some time. If you have a good internet connection, you can "speed vote". You open your friends page, right click on a users name, and hit "open in new tab". Keep going down the list and right clicking on your friends, opening their profiles in new tabs. Try it with five at first to get the hang of it, and once you do you may be able to do up to 20 at once. It will turn potentially hours of voting into much less time!

Getting Votes and Good Karma towards a Free Charity Car

There are a LOT of people out there who need a car. If you are applying for a car, realize that there are a limited number of cars donated, and what's available varies depending on where you live. To help decide who to award cars to, F.C.C. works on a system of votes and good karma. You get votes from other members who see your profile and think you deserve a free car to help your life improve. You also earn good karma by visiting the pages of others and voting for them. FCC factors a lot of tings in; but when a car becomes available in your area, there are ways to make your chances of being awarded better. The more votes, page views, and good karma you have; the better your chances. When you promote the site elsewhere, it helps generate interest and popularity for FCC; which encourages more people to donate, and might help you to luck out and be offered a free car.

There are many ways to get people to help you out by voting for you. You can post about it on your myspace, facebook, and other social networks. That let's your friends know what you're doing, and informs them about FCC. Free Charity Cars will even give you a few extra votes when you do!

On the site, the easiest way to make friends and earn votes is to interact with the other members. Read their stories; many of them are poinient, touching, or funny. Send them messages and say hello. Send friends requests. Most importantly, vote for them. Many people on the site vote every day for all of their friends, and as you show that you are willing to be compassionate about their situation, chances are they'll be compassionate about yours! :-)
