      Hello,

      I'm planning a blog contest. I have the project plan outlined and the one missing factor is where to promote the blog contest to get the most people involved in the contest possible.

      What do you recommend in regards to publicizing the contest to bloggers?

        Hi Randy

        I think the most basic thing would be to find out if you have a blog for this contest setup already or not?

        I guess you would, so drawing up a well constructed post for this blog would be a priority. Do all the bells and whistles on this post release and make sure that you are connected to various blogging publishing platforms that form part of a network which shares you content in a  non-threatening way.

        added to this, look at using a system like twitterfeed. Twitterfeed is a great way to share content across many social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook and much much more with the click of a button. The moment you post it, its gets shared across many. I have setup one of my blogs to spread news across over 150 platforms.

        I would also recommend contacting some top bloggers and sending them mail, to see if they can promote it. get the big boys involved and the rest will fall into place.

        lastly, remember to get a badge up for your users. Let them grab it when participating in your comp. Nice little wayt of getting some links back. of course its not the best way but does help 😉

        Hope this helped a wee bit.

        Stef
