If you’d like to promote your contest, you can purchase any of the following promotional upgrades:

• List the contest in bold
• Highlight the contest with a silver gradient background
• Promote the contest to users of the SitePoint Forums
• Make the contest a featured contest

Prior to launching, you can also choose to make the contest private, or fast-track the contest if you’d like a result sooner than seven days.

You can purchase any of these upgrades when launching your contest, or you can purchase the promotional upgrades while your contest is running (with the exception of making it “Private” or the “Fast Track” option) by clicking on contest options on the right side:

Once a contest is already running, you can also increase the prize on offer, guarantee the contest, or extend the deadline for entries.

Note that none of these upgrades can be reversed.
