Hi {{name}},

Congrats on creating your first market on Manifold!

The following is a short guide to creating markets.

 

What makes a good market?

• Interesting topic. Manifold gives creators M$10 for each unique trader that bets on your market, so it pays to ask a question people are interested in!
• Clear resolution criteria. Any ambiguities or edge cases in your description will drive traders away from your markets.
• Detailed description. Include images/videos/tweets and any context or background information that could be useful to people who are interested in learning more that are uneducated on the subject.
• Add it to a group. Groups are the primary way users filter for relevant markets. Also, consider making your own groups and inviting friends/interested communities to them from other sites!
• Share it on social media. You'll earn the M$500 referral bonus if you get new users to sign up!

 

Examples of markets you should emulate! 

• This complex market about the project I am working on.
• This simple market about Manifold's weekly active users.

 

Why not create another market while it is still fresh on your mind?

Thanks for reading!
