Are you an Aspiring Blogger? - Win Prizes worth $1000 and more
Tue, Jun 3, 2008
Finally, after weeks of planning I am going to announce this Small Competition. This will hopefully be the First of many competitions I plan to hold every few months. So what’s in store for this contest?
Prizes Worth over $1000 which includes a Complete “Aspiring Blogger’s Dream Package” Prize
So how is this competition different? For starters, Four of the Best Wordpress Premium Theme Designer’s have sponsored prizes. Normally, you will notice contests having loads of prizes and many ways of entry and lots of winners. I was thinking what if you could choose what prize you wanted and accordingly enter that particular contest. The odds of winning for every subscriber are high because not everyone will go after the same prize. I think people will be entering each contest for the prizes they liked in it, so it will be really interesting to see which Everyone’s favorite Prize is.

Complete Prize List
2 Copies of the Elite Wordpress Premium theme from Brian Lovin
After the original Elite theme creating waves in the Wordpress theme market, Brian Lovin has just released his latest New Wordpress Premium theme which is the Elite Theme.

= 3 points
Contest #1 blog Post = 9 points
http://dotdriven.com/index.php/20/contest-galore/
Of all the prizes, I think I’d like the silver pack most. I’d love to give Darrens theme a try and wouldn’t mind checking out Jims ebook either. Why not the “gold” package lol? Because I am not real greedy and already have hosting and don’t really have much to advertise right now lol. So the Silver would be enough to make me happy :). Though beyond the contest #1, I’d still love to try out a few of the other guys themes as well (brian lovins and Jasons). But to be completely honest, all of the themes here are great…though everyone already knew that lol.
Contest #3 stumbled and commented 3 post = 2 points
