I agree, it is a lot smarter to take part in a smaller contest with less competition. But I think part of it may be the requirements you have are a bit confusing…at least to me.
A few questions:
1. how many winners are possible? Is it just one winner takes all or 3 different winners?
2. some of the requirements are obvious but others are confusing…
- subscribe = obvious
- stumble = obviuos
- sign up for MarketLeverage = ??? Do only those that sign up under your referral link qualify? Or does anyone that is a member of MarketLeverage also qualify?
- guest post = kind of obvious but still confusing. If there is only one winner for all the prizes then is it just the guy that submits the most guest post? If multiple winners, is it the top three win or a random draw between everyone that submits? Can you only win if you submit the most guest post? Do all submissions count or only ones you approve and publish?
I don’t know if it’s too late for you to change the rules but it seems like it would be easier for everyone if you just made each requirement worth points then each person earns as many points as they can for a drawing and then you have one, or three, winners out of those that have earned points.
Also not sure when the contest ends as you didn’t post that.
I’ve subscribed to your feed and I have stumbled the post (first person to do so as I had to submit the page/review) but I’m already signed up for Market Leverage from before so does that mean I don’t qualify at all?
Sorry for all the questions but I think a few other people were confused as well and if you made it a little more clear for the dumb ones like me lol, it might get more people to take part.
Good luck with the contest regardless and good luck to those that take part! Unless I am allowed to take part then I curse you all so I can win…lol jk ;).
