Resources on How-To win Giveaways

After a year of blogging I have seen lots of giveaways {many with really neat prizes} go by, and have groaned when I didn’t win. Who doesn’t want to win? Whether it is cash, or an item you want, check out these tips on how to win that giveaway.

How To Win Giveaways by Save Your Money Momma, a guest post at Life’s A Charm {here is the link to the post} ~ My favorite tip from her is to only spend your time entering a giveaway you are truly interested in. It doesn’t do you any good to win something you don’t want. Seems kinda obvious doesn’t it, LOL.

How to Win Blog Giveaways by Julie at Knitting and Sundries, a guest post at My Love Affair with Books. ~ I like how she pointed out you don’t have to be a blogger to enter blog giveaways. Just take the time to set up the GFC account, and off you go!

And if you are wondering about adding giveaways to your blog: How To Start Offering Giveaways On Your Blog by Savvy Blogging. ~ I like how they mention using Gift Cards you have earned through SwagBucks as prizes. Does anyone want to know how I got the $15 Amazon Gift Card I’m giving away? {PS ~ that giveaway is open until Monday the 25th, so enter now!}

A hat for my oldest in ballet pink (red heart yarn she picked) with some silver beads. No pattern, and ended up running elastic thread through a couple rows to make it more secure on her head for now, until she grows into it some more. Matches a shoulder shrug knitted for her during her year of ballet lessons.

Add a ‘click-able’ signature to comments you make.

While blog hopping recently, I came across this fantastic tip listed on Be Our Best . Jill has compiled her Top 10 Blogging Tips in one place to help others out there in blogland. Most of them I had heard of before. But she had one on her list that I have only seen a couple times in practice, and have not heard a how-to do it before. Number 6: Add a clickable signature to your comments. If you add the following text to the bottom of the comments you leave for other bloggers, whatever text you insert for “Your Text Here” will be clickable. You have to switch out “{“ and “}” with “<” and “>” then it will work. Remember to also change the “Your Blog Address” part, LOL! {a href=http://www.YourBlogAddress.com/ }YOUR TEXT HERE {/a} Bonus Tip ~ I use Notepad to store all the html codes I use on a regular basis {the direct link code for my signature image, color codes, etc.}.
