Contests Galore

There appears to be an increase of contests held by bloggers. I can’t be too surprised, as contests are a becoming an increasingly popular way to obtain more traffic, readers, subscribers and elevate exposure within the blogging community. With so many competitors, who could blame them? It’s a popular marketing tactic used with many companies…Free 1 Liter Coke Anyone?

I thought it would be great to quickly list some of the ones I’ve come across recently.

1) Jet Train - Blogging The Movie by Cash For Comments: Win a Free 4-Hour Work Week Book and Appearance in Blogging The Movie.

2) Guess The Next Page Rank by Ryan Shamus: Win Google Stuff by guessig the date of the next Page Rank. It hasn’t happened yet surprisingly, but should happen fairly soon…

3) Win $500 and More by Steve from 1 Cool File: Win $500 or link packages. Check out this site for more details.

4) “How To” Group Writing Project by Blue Jar: Write an “How To” post about any topic. Winners get a cash prize and a bonus prize of a free banner placement.

5) Car Giveway by Blogging The Movie: A free car and unique advertising. A one of a kind contest.

6) $4000 Blog Anniversary Draw by David Airey: Fantastic prizes for blogging about the giveaway and subscribing to the site.

I’m sure there are many more contests being held. If you find any other contests that I’ve missed, feel welcome to leave a couple and I will make sure to add them.

    A lot of contests give cash, free advertising for your own site, and many will also ship outside of the United States.

    Hi Zmoney, anybody can enter into the Group Writing Project. If you win the contest I’m sure we can figure out a way to pay you from the USA or provide you with a alternative at similar cost.

    I’m not sure about the other ones? But I’m sure if you win something they could still mail it to you.
