#FollowFriday Ranking of the most recommended tweeps

FollowFriday.com is a world ranking of Twitter organized by countries and languages. Like any ranking it's interesting to be natural and free from manipulations. It is very hard to meet and get closer to every local community from our offices in Spain, in order to watch over the integrity of these rankings. Due to this, we have created a moderators program by countries to help us to look for the ideal people to become our link with the local community and watch over the quality of the recommended lists from every country. Some countries have already their moderators.

Moderator's function

• Keep the top100 of the ranking free from geolocation "mistakes". Occasionally, our algorithm of geolocation fails because of corrupt or non-sense locations, in this case the moderator must inform us to correct the user's location.
• Notify the presence of users suspected of spam. FollowFriday.com is ready to automatically fight against many spamming techniques, but some can be only considered with a manual analysis. The moderator can warn us about these users and we will manually analyze his/her behaviour.
• Identify users from the moderated country that doesn't appear in the ranking. It is here where the local moderator may play an important role impossible for us without living in the country or knowing the community.
• Redirect consults about the ranking. If there would be any doubt about the ranking or its rules, the moderator should redirect consults to any of our support channels.
• Keep the community informed about news on the project. It's not about advertise FollowFriday.com, but provide some information about news that may interest the community, such as changes into the rules or new features.

Moderator's privileges

• Outstanding profile on the ranking web from his/her country including direct Follow key.
• Continuous information about Twitter accounts from local moderators from our Twitter accounts and blogs. We are very interested our moderators become influential members of his/her community and we will support him/her.

Functions that moderators mustn't assume

• Moderators MUSTN'T mediate in quarrels about the ranking. If there would be any doubt about the ranking or its rules, the moderator should redirect consults to any of our support channels.
