Aussie, huh? What is it about you guys – do they teach you blogging at school or something?
I ran a little contest awhile back for a couple of AdWords vouchers I didn’t need – not very successful though. Combination of too little traffic, and possibly the prize wasn’t enticing enough. I think I’ll wait awhile before I try it again.

It’s still not late Sire. Go on and hold a contest on your game site, looking for something interesting to do.

That is so true Armen and while I have held competitions on my games site I have yet to hold one for any of my blogs. Perhaps this may change one day but for now I am quite content following the path I have chosen.

I think it will and as for the mention, don't mention it. It was an instructive post that I thought deserved a bit more exposure.

There sure are a few key factors that should be in place for an effective blog competition, and these include items such as having reasonable awards and having a general purpose or theme behind the procedure. People are generally favorable to competitions and so there is little reason not to have a blog competition if one desires to. Armen Shirvanians Last blog post..Spoken/Written Words vs. Intent

Thanks so much for the mention…. It’s amazing what knowledge you learn about competitions and how they are run when you spend time every day entering them…….

Of course blog contests are a little different than huge corporate competitions, but the basics are still the same…. Hopefully the info helps some bloggers :)

No worries Dennis, it was probably me that jumped the gun in the first place.
