Editor's Choice Bonus Contest

Your Chance to Win $50 Each Month

Hi Hubbers, 2015 is coming to a close, and I just wanted to remind everyone that there's still time to participate in the Editor's Choice Monthly Bonus. In case you've forgotten, or if you haven't heard yet, the EC Bonus is a monthly drawing where one lucky Hubber who has written an EC Hub is awarded a $50 bonus to his or her account balance.

Anyone who writes a Stellar Hub that is designated Editor's Choice will have a chance to win each month. Until the end of 2015, each Hub you write that is designated Editor's Choice will be entered in the drawing for the month it received EC status. So, the more great Hubs you write, the more likely you are to win!

You can check out the Official Editor's Choice Bonus Page for the full details. Happy Hubbing!
