HOW TO CLIMB UP THE RANKINGS?

You just have to gain experience and level up on starcraft-replay.com. Here's a guide on Gaining XP on starcraft-replay!

HOW DO I GAIN XP IF I'M NOT IN THE SC2 BETA?

 You can find great SC2 Replays, watch them and upload them here even without SC2 Beta access.

1. Here's a guide on How to Watch Starcraft 2 Replays without beta access

2. There are many places where you can find great replays from top players. Here is a couple of examples:

• TeamLiquid - There's a thread on TeamLiquid where many top players are posting replays everyday. I suggest starting from page 44, because we've already checked the previous pages.
• Zota Cups Replay packs - I've put up a lot of replays from the first 3 ZOTA SC2 Beta Cups on our Starcraft 2 Tournament Discussions Forums. I haven't looked through them yet, and I'm sure there are many very good replays in there.
• There are many other places where you can look. Many pro players got a twitter account or a blog where they share replays for example. Just Google it ;)

Comments

You can post useful/funny comments under replays and guides, which can bring you additionnal XP if people rate your comments up.

Guides

Even if you don't have beta access, you can still write certain type of guides if you watch a lot of replays from top players and have good analysis skills. You can for example find very effective build orders and write a guide out of it.

TIPS

• When uploading a replay, make sure to add a description. Don't spoil the game, but at least try to explain why this replay is worth watching. It doesn't take much time but it doubles the chance that people will actually download, watch and rate your replay.
• Quality > Quantity. That's how our XP system works. If you upload just 1 awesome replay and it gets many positive ratings, you will earn more XP than if you uploaded 20 "Okay" replays.
