How To Enter Blog Giveaways

I would like to write this post and dedicate it to all the sweepers. Regardless if you are new at this or have been doing it for a while. There is an art of entering blog giveaways. Some sweepers win lots of prizes from blog giveaways and are very successful. Many are not. This step by step guide to entering these giveaways will help you win more and be more successful at what you do.

1. There are several resources you can utilize to find blog giveaways. You can search Twitter for the word “giveaway”. By searching that word you can find MANY tweets from bloggers that are running giveaways. You can also use sites like OLS or Prizey.com. Bloggers post most of their giveaways on these sites and the owners of these sites make it easy for you to sort by category, end date, and so forth. So, to sum up the first step, find your blog giveaways and visit the site.
2. You need to proceed with the next few steps very carefully. Read over the entire post. There is usually some very helpful information written by the blogger in the post. Even if you don’t win the giveaway this might be a product that you end up purchasing at a later date. The post the can give you information about the product that may not be advertised by the company.
3. Usually at the bottom of the post the giveaway prize will be listed. It may or may not be specific or what the blogger reviewed. Make sure you know what you are trying to win.
4. Under the description of the prize there are step by step instructions of how to enter the giveaway. Usually there are at least one entry method that is mandatory. What this means is that you HAVE to follow this method in order to proceed to the additional or extra entries. Read the mandatory entry requirements and follow them carefully. Not following the requirements can potentially make you lose the prize if your comment is chosen.
5. After you have successfully followed the instructions for the mandatory entry move on to the additional or extra entries. This is a great way to increase your chances. Remember, these entries are not valid if you have not completed the mandatory entry. Utilize these extra entries. Some additional entries include following on friend connect, Twitter, or subscribing to the blog. These are great ways to keep up with this blog and have easy access to future giveaways and interesting content.
6. Don’t forget you will need to include a good email address in your entries. If you don’t include a good email address you may not know you have won a prize.

If you follow these rules you will successfully enter blog giveaways an increase your chances of winning. You will also learn something about some great products and brands. I know you don’t want your time and hard work to be disqualified for not following the rules.

I wish every giveaway entrant the best of luck as long as you follow the rules.
