Dear DC,

Please add in an option to save searches when searching contests. Something like what a certain competitor has. To save a search by keyword and other options when searching and then sending a daily/immediate email to inform of any new contests that match the keywords and options. This should be separate from the usual "Contests to join" emails.

It'll save designers a lot of time so that they can concentrate on making designs instead of finding the right contests. And designers will never have to enter a contest late just because of a late discovery!

So, you are talking about subscription via emails to contests that matches your search/filter criteria?

Yes, please add this feature. It would be great. :)

 

For example, say you like to design logos for lawyers. The designer would sign up or 'subscribe' to that search by initially putting in keywords such as lawyer, attorney, law, legal, etc, and save it their 'subscription' interests. So every time a new contest starts that is for an attorney, that new contest link would be emailed to all the designers that subscribe to those keywords. That way, designers would be notified by email immediately if a new contest has started that they are interested in.

Hi @Oleksandrm ,

 

Sorry for the very, very late reply. I haven't checked the forum for a while now and I thought I would get an email for replies (EDIT: just noticed that I didn't follow my own topic, not sure why I didn't do that...?). Thanks a lot for responding.

 

Yes, that's what I was talking about. @PaintedPony explained it well. Right now the competitor I'm talking about hasn't perfected that feature for a very long time until today, making my subscriptions come late, even giving me contests that I can't even join because it's already in the finalists' round. A great idea but poorly executed. Even when I pointed out to them they totally ignored my message. So if DC can make this feature right it'll be great for designers, and that DC will be probably the first to have some 'great designer helping features'

 

Hoping to have this feature up!
