How can I be named Expert? The designation of
Expert is offered to members who
- are recognized by other members to have exceptional knowledge, expertise and/or helpfulness in a particular area or areas,
- have been registered at least 3 months,
- have at least 200 replies (in any/all areas), and
- answer most if not all questions posted to a board or boards.
The best way to be recognized is to simply stand out as the most helpful in the board(s) of your expertise: respond helpfully in most - if not all - of the questions on the board(s) of your expertise. Your reputation comments (Click on
My Profile to see them) should reflect positive feedback in that/those area(s).
To facilitate this, you should
subscribe to the boards that you have special knowledge/experience in. You will get instant email notification of new questions in those areas to be sure you see them all.
You should also be sure to complete the
Experience field of your profile, so that your experience and expertise is shown to members and administrators.
There are significant benefits to Experts that are explained when you are upgraded to Expert status
Those who wish to be named Expert, and whose activity on the site reflects the above, should send a Private Message to RickJ. (Please be sure to name or list the specific topic(s) that you are expert of).
