Just a quick post about some ideas for blog contests.

I was considering running a blog contest recently on a different blog of mine so I looked for some sites that I could submit the contest to, to help promote it. I compiled a list of the sites and I'll put links to them below.

I thought about a contest recently that I think would really be interesting. I'm really bored of the standard everyday contests...subscribe to my feed and write a post on your blog about my contest and you can win a t-shirt....what about a fun contest that really requires some skill. You would have to up the prize a bit to like $500.00 or so, but what about this...

Ask for an animated character to be created to represent your blog, then have your readers vote on the best one. Maybe even offer some runner up prizes. After that, take it even further...get some of those talented people to make some videos centered around your new little character or mascot. Give points for each visit to your site from any of the video sites. Give the winner a big wad of cash. Then, even go further and offer a big prize for the coolest Flash video game made with your character. That would be cool.

Anyways, I'm not sure how most people promote their contests but I found a few sites that allow you to post your contest to. Check them out below:

• A Contest Blog
• A.B.C. - About Blog Contests
• Blog Contest Site
• Contest Beat
• Contestu.com
• BlogContests.com
• BloggingContest.com
• My Blog Contest
• My Blog Contests
• Contest Blogger

If you are running a contest, feel free to mention it in the comments. I'll take a look and try to make a dedicated post about it or even enter it.
