(1) Hosting of website and email address at no extra charge ( + blog!)

(2) Networking

(3) Full Blue Board access

(4) Supporting ProZ

These are the most valuable reasons for me. How about you, virtual colleagues?

Cheers from Sydney -

1. Knowing that my bid has a chance of appearing before others (not that it guarantees I get the job).

2. I developed my own site and the idea of losing it made me remember to renew.

3. The ability to check Blue Board ratings for outsourcers, and being able to leave my feedback for those I worked for.

A great help Apr 5, 2006

Apart from the professional advantages I can get (BlueBoard, Kudoz), it's more a "personal" reason.
It's my way of saying Thank you for the help I get with Kudoz, thank you for letting me meet new friends, thank you for offering a little distraction with the Forums when I am going to fall asleep on the keyboard and still I have a lot to do.
Thank you to all the staff and the people who work on the site for the site.

I had no idea I could get my website domain for just $10 a year with my Platinum membership, the fee is absolutely worth every penny! specially if I keep participating. So many things to do in so little time!!! I have made some wonderful friends in the past two years because of ProZ. They have my vote!
Nice meeting you Elena
