1. How does Tradeshow LifeLinks work?

Tradeshow LifeLinks lists links by Category in order of highest bid. Bids can be entered for any LifeLink at any time, by anybody* (really!), and all bids are counted toward a link's total bid. The top 15 bidding links are displayed prominently on the home page, and using our "Feature Site" LifeLink Leader, the highest bidding link will be displayed on every page.

2. How do I add my LifeLink?

Adding a LifeLink is easy. Just acquire your LifeLink and place an initial bid of at least $3 to activate your link. Think about it... That's $3... for Life! You never pay again unless you want to move your listing up the rank.

---

3. I added a LifeLink, now how do I bid on it?

If you added your LifeLink you should have been sent directly to the LifeLink details page, where you can place a bid. An email is also sent to the address for all new LifeLinks with instructions on placing your first bid.

---

4. How do we become the Featured LifeLink?

The Featured LifeLink is the highest current bidder. In the case of a tie... the Featured LifeLink is the earliest bid.

---

5. How can our LifeLink appear on the home page?

The highest bid LifeLinks appear on the home page up to the current limit. In the event of tie bids, the default is toward the earliest bid.

---

6. I placed a bid, but it was never counted!

You must click the Activate My Bid link on PayPal after payment. If you placed a bid but it was never counted toward your link, please contact us with details of the transaction and the email address that payment was issued from. Your bid will be applied as quickly as possible.

---

7. How long will my link be listed in Tradeshow LifeLinks?

Once listed, your link is displayed permanently (for the "life" of it). As time passes you can increase your the bid to keep your link at the top of the listings (if you so choose).

---

8. How come I don't have to register?

It's not necessary. The only management that is necessary is bidding up the LifeLink and you don't have to register to do that.

---

9. What if somebody else bids up my LifeLink?

We should all have this problem!!!

---

10. But, how do I change my LifeLink or delete it later?

For simplicity and efficiency (and to keep it cheap)... here's how it's done: Send us an email to links@tradeshowlife.com with the requested change. Once we verify your ownership of the link, we will immediately make the change or delete the link. This prevents anyone but you (or us) from tinkering with your LifeLink. We may modify this process at a later time. If so, we'll let you know.

*Yes... you could conceivably ask your friends and associates to bid up your LifeLink for you. No problem. Good luck.
