An ICO tracker is an online platform where visitors can get information about completed, live, and upcoming crowdsales. Trackers help investors to estimate the prospects of projects and learn about the dates of the ICO. Trackers also provide the crowdfunding companies with an additional promotion tool.

Here you will find information on the particulars of trackers for ICO projects.

The minimum data placed by the company into a tracker includes a logo, an ICO and its date. For example, ICOcountdown is a tracker with the minimum data for every project.

The majority of trackers also publish information about the company, the platform to issue tokens, planned investments, volumes of the raised funds and the crowdsale period. At the same time, every project must place links to the website, white papers, social networks, blogs, forums, and channels in messengers. Coinschedule is an example of a tracker that describes projects in more detail.

Some trackers like ICOrating take into account special indicators: rating of trust in the project, fraud risk, investment potential for long-term investments and even the hype level.

Date and country of the legal entity’s registration,

Minimum and maximum amount of investments from one ICO participant,

Minimum and maximum amount of investments targeted by the project,

Trackers are divided into free and those requiring a fee. To place info with a fee, it is necessary to pay on average from $200 to $1,000. Some trackers offer a bonus placement in the top positions of the general list of ICO campaigns. Such additional services may reach 1 BTC for the whole ICO period.

The Digital Finance team uses trackers when promoting most of the ICOs. The experience of promoting projects allows us to define which trackers are efficient and those that are inefficient. High platform traffic or including additional cost options does not always contribute to attracting members.

In spite of the opportunities presented by trackers, in order to successfully promote an ICO project, it is not enough to place info only on these platforms. Read about other methods of attracting crowdsale members in our next posts.
