How do they do that?

I have just read an article where Austin says that he wants to make 3000 points this month and he already has over 800.

How does he do that? I've been on Gather now for a few months and have still only got 626 points. Does this make me really useless, or do some people spend all day publishing articles? How can anybody get 3000 points in a month?

It doesn't really matter how many points I get, because I'm not from America so I can't spend them anyway!

Good luck to Austin in his quest for 3000 points. I'm going to aim for 1000 by the end of June. Only 374 to go.

It is a quest of many here to know that. Just type in points in the search box and WOW, there are a ton.

I'll try that, thank-you. It would cost me too much to come over and spend my vouchers, but we all have to have an aim in life.

Being active is the key! I have made over 300 points in the past week!

I hit 3,000 points and converted over to cash instead of gift cards...after my first 28 days! I've hit the 10,000 point level in 85 days now, publishing my first article on Valentine's Day, February 14th. I write two articles per day; sometimes, only one on weekends.

That is brilliant going. Do you get the points mainly from comments?
