Licenses and Contracts

The World Charts team is looking for publishing partners for interesting co-operations.
Services
	World Charts offers several different services. They are listed here below. Please mail us if any of these services has your interest.
Exclusive sponsorship Our charts will carry your name in all of our publications, on the website, in the text versions and in all versions sent to third-party distributors. Only your site will have its name captioned above the charts. It's like you are the publisher, without having to do anything.
Exclusive publishing rights Only your website is allowed to publish the charts on the Internet, with the exception of the home site of World Charts itself. All other parties will have to remove current charts from their sites, or else ask for your permission. On the Internet the charts can only be distributed by others with permission from you.
	Advertising You can decide to put one or more of its advertisements in all publications of our charts. The widely distributed charts can carry any advertisements and announcements that your website wants to get across, aside from putting them on the website itself. The text versions are sent weekly to thousands of voters, publishers, newsgroups and third-party distributors.
Sub-license sales You, as the exclusive publisher, are allowed to sell licenses for publication of the charts in paper magazines, or for use in any other way by other parties. World Charts will then only act as the producer and owner of the data, with your organization taking care of the marketing of this data.
Website maintenance The website version of our charts has links to information on the Internet. You can request that all the links point to other pages within your website, and not to other websites.
	Building on the engine Next to the wave of new features planned for this year, you might have some other requests that need some modifications to the engine. When kept mimimized to a small amount of work, we'd be happy to add some functionality that fits your website where needed.
Improve the website There are lots of features that could be implemented on the charts website, like direct voting from the chart itself (without a voting form), animation, specialized applets, performance graphics and statistics, etc. Things like that are not planned for the near future, but we could try to make it sooner.
Charts and data on request You might want specialized charts to fit the needs of the readers, like charts per continent and chart per category. Our software is also a master at having people vote for annual awards and maintaining halls of fame. With four years of experience we know all about people sabotaging votes and stuffing the ballot. Our engine handles it all perfectly.
	Custom mailing lists With large amounts of data about people, and their personal tastes and email addresses, it will be possible to send messages to only those people who like a particular title or a particular category. Announcements about titles can be sent to all who voted for them, and messages about new titles can be sent to voters who supported similar previous titles.
Printable versions Printable versions of the charts are made available for anyone to grab from the net. With the right promotion it should be possible to make readers put copies on well-chosen places, like retail and rental shops. Content for the paper versions (and eventually maybe even some advertisements) to fill up empty space can be supplied by your website.
	Please contact us, if you are interested in any of the services listed above.
