IMDB.COM WELCOMES TWILIGHTERS ANONYMOUS AS THEIR NEWSDESK PARTNER!
After a lot of going back and forth, enhancing TwilightersAnonymous.com and our articles to meet their requirements, our application’s been finally accepted by http://IMDB.com (internet movie database) to have our ARTICLES PUBLISHED ON THEIR SITE! As it turns out, we’re also their first Twilight-related site to be accepted! (Sweet!)
Thanks to our awesome news posters Dawnnoelle and Team Switzerland (Kara) who had to do the brunt of the work with increasing article quality, news filtering/quality control, increasing word count (yeah there’s a minimum!), and providing more insight into each article. It’s HARD WORK extracting your feelings, ideas, and opinions for each article considering all the articles these girls publish DAILY! On top of that, topping off each article with a question so our members can relate and share with us their comments.
Also thanks to Vamp who constantly had to tweak our custom IMDB RSS feed to them until we met their requirements. Vamp‘s our resident tech who makes TA tick.
In case you’re curious, here’s the final RSS feed exclusive to IMDB:

As a NewsDesk Partner, here’s what we see as the benefits to you:# Your article headlines can appear on the relevant people and title pages on our site.
# Your articles appear on the compendium /News page for that person, character, or title.
# You get a NewsPartner page of your own on the site, which aggregates all of your articles on the site.
# Your article remains as a permalink on the site.Each of the above instances will have a link back to either your homepage or the relevant article. Your logo will appear on the /News, Partner page and permalink page and all logos link back to their source.
So any Twilight-related searches will yield our articles on IMDB’s site. So it goes without saying that we’re to expect a pretty high increase in traffic! Can we handle it on top of the increased traffic we’ve been receiving now because of the upcoming movie? Sure! Bring it!
Last but not least, thanks to IMDB for giving us this opportunity.
TA will NOT disappoint!
