Nobody won my $10 online contest!!!

I was out for one whole week because I recently gave birth. I'm happy at the same time surprised about how last week caught me and hubby by surprise. I posted a virtual baby shower contest but unluckily, no one gave the correct guess because they all said it was a girl. But anyone $10 as a prize seems to be not an interesting offer to some bloggers or maybe they just don't have any idea how to follow the said criteria to join an entry. Have you joined any online contests? Did you ever win?

Hello there my friend, yes I hosted an online contest, still open for all who wants to join. I haven't won any prizes yet even if I have joined a lot of online contests held by other bloggers online. Well, at least I will be busy with some more things this time, yes, it was a baby boy!

i joined everytime tagvillage made a contest and it's great because i always have a share in the contest. the first time i joinea a contest in tagvillage i won $5. the second time i joined the contest when they placed $10,000 in the pool i got $60 shared. now tagvillage is having a half million dollar contest started on october 1, 2011 and it will end on december 31, 2011. the contest is like this; 1. members will earn points by being active (TRADING) in the site 2. points earn shares of 3 diffferent pools of $100,000 3. if your referral trade more you earn more 4. 5 special members share a pool of $100,000 5. one very special member gets his/her own pool of $100,000. I am so happy because in just three weeks time i have already 1 shares of the first pool of $100,000 and 4 shares of the other pool of $100,000 and i have 3 referrals who made 1 share of the first pool of $100,000. the more good thing about it is that, this week updates, there are only 15 people who are qualified in the third pool of $100,000 and 16 people who are qualified in the second pool of $100 and a little over 100 people who are qualified for the first pool of $100,000. it is really amazing isn't it? i am now working for the third pool of $100,000 and also helping my other referral get a 1 share of the first pool of $100,000. So i believe this is the most easiest contest i have ever been.

Hi Leon, that's a good experience then! I never heard about this site your saying but later I will try and see since I am into such contests too especially if I don't have to buy anything just to be included in the game. I also made more than $10 for winning online contests, so far the most highest I got for a prize was $10 cash via Paypal .

Thanks sw0605, it was a blog that I hosted a contest for the first time, although one contest was still on till Nov. 3, 2011. I tried to join different online contests although my chances are slim since the entries were many so I also compete with other people and you can win by chance only because it will be picked up like a raffle, just what I did in my own contest. Anyway if your interested I will pm it to you.

I have participated in only a few contests online and even those for which there was an invitation sent to me by e-mail. It has been my experience that I don't win contests-online or offline. LoL. I'm not the one luck favors for extra or easy money. You know there is this TV show which is based on 'who wants to be a millionaire?'. Just when I had got close to winning an invitation, I found myself far away from the phone call [mobile phones not so popular then, yet]!! There was another invitation by a plugin author to submit an entry and no sooner had I finished reading the mail, did I submit my entry. Again, I missed. The poor run continues because even now, when I try once in a way to submit an entry for a contest, providence rules me out with some hurdle. I have to take it in stride!! Ha ha.

Hi Pushhyarag, well that was really an experience but anyway, you might get some if you still try, why not? if it was just offered for free and you don't need to pay anything just to get included in the contest. Well, they say fortune favors the brave!

I missed it, how bad! Congratulations strawberry. I just hope your son and you both are in good spirit. Coming to your discussion, I do not quite remember competing in any such contests or having won it ever. But it's great fun, I guess. Will look out surely.

Hi Mimpi, you didn't miss it, I still have the other contest going on although I don't usually broadcast it here in Mylot as for the rules. That is why I limited my topic which I wanted to ask members here if they have experienced joining contests online and has won also.

I never joined in a contest, because I think it looks like lotery, at least for me. I have no enough skills and knowlegde to win a contest. And noone can earn too much if he dont lost too much time and enery. I just earn by myself, never look forward a luck.

Hello Anhhai, thanks for dropping by. Before I don't know how to share a link, post a blog and follow such sites. But when I tried to join online contests which you need to do this and that instructions, I have learned a lot about twitter status, facebook statements and linking other bloggers sites which gave me more knowledge on SEO which is very vital to anyone who blogs. This is the main reason why I join contests, to learn other bloggers style and ways. Indeed it has a big impact with my own site. I like to join contest not because of the prize or win, but because of the challenge they give me to accomplish first to get "IN" the entry. I haven't tried to enter a contest that asks money, most of these online contests are just FREE and the contest holder shoulders that prize amount with their own pockets. Some includes fabulous give aways like materials like make-up, bags, clothings, money via paypal, etc.
