The Cutest Cats on Instagram: A contest to determine the top 101 cats of Instagram
CatBreedswithPictures.com features a unique contest to share the most interesting Instagram cats to follow on the internet. These are hand-selected top cats from any part of the world; the first list of its kind on the web.
- Kingston, NY (1888PressRelease) February 16, 2015 - CatBreedsWithPictures.com seeks to create a definitive list of the 101 Best Cats on Instagram. With common hashtags such as #cat, #kitten and #catsofinstagram each reaching millions of postings on the social media platform, the cat breed directory site is running a nomination based contest until mid-March to choose the top 101 cats. The contest will help people find new furry friends to follow, teach about various breeds and cat varieties, and promote increased traffic and publicity to the pages of contest entrants.
Contest entry requires nomination. People may nominate their own Instagram account or ask a friend or follower to nominate them. Nominated accounts should be cat-centered, with engaging, really cute posts of any breed of cat. Prime entrants will exclude a multitude of selfies, food pictures, or non cat related subjects.
Winners will consist of Instagram's 101 best cats. The "best" may be determined by various factors, including the number of followers an account holds, the amount and consistency of cat related posts, quality and cuteness of cat pictures, and the level of interest and humor in posts and pictures.
Contestants should focus on maintaining a high quality Instagram account. Quality, intriguing, or interesting cats may be chosen for the Top 101 list regardless of user popularity or number of followers. Entrants should also avoid posting many pictures of objects other than the cat, or risk exclusion. Any inappropriate photos, captions, or vulgar material will be automatically excluded as the contest is appropriate for all ages.
This year's 101 winners will enjoy greater publicity to their Instagram pages. All entrants will have the opportunity to find and follow more adorable cats, as well as learn about the animal and various breeds. Entrants will demonstrate various cat breeds both large and small, common and more rare. Catbreedswithpictures.com hosts a user created breed dictionary to compare entrants to if a breed is not explicitly stated in a contest post.
CatBreedsWithPictures.com is built by users, for users. The site includes a unique breed directory, articles, and stories continued by users. Visitors may submit pictures of a cat to identify breed and will receive feedback from the entire community. The site's forum pages offer the ability to ask questions about breeds as well as cat care, grooming, and feeding. Users can also join a variety of different general discussions.
The site is funded through donations and advertising, and registration is completely free. The site promotes continued cat breed education and plans to further this through the Instagram contest, as well as provide users with the greatest cats to follow.
