Is it just me or has there been a HUGE lack of blog contests out recently?
I remember at one point, there seemed to be 100 contests going on at one time, (mostly marketleverage... lol). Recently this seems to have come to a standstill.
So I wanted to run an easy twitter / facebook fan / blog contest and give away some nice prizes!

First Prize:
First prize is going to win a DUAL 22" Monitor set. Each monitor is 1920x1080 (1080P HD) widescreen for maximum efficiency!

Second Prize:
- 125x125 ad spot on JonathanVolk.com
- $50 Amazon Gift Card
Third Prize:
- $50 Amazon Gift Card

Featured Money Maker Of The Month:




I have almost the same setup in my workplace: 2 22inch Acer full-HD monitors. Just different models.
I would recommend everyone a dual screen setup so join the contest
Jonathan, I am with you on the contest thing. For a while that is all there were on everyone’s blog. so I started one yesterday at Linkmoney.org.
My goal is to improve my Alexa rating and to become a little more known. I put up the first round of prizes and then some other vendors have been and are still continuing to donate more.
I am happy to tweet and facebook your posts and hope to have two shiny new monitors.
Thanks!
Rich Hill
this is great, hrm.. I’ll be joining this one when I’m free

Count me in. Have twittered your contest post (my id: mazeo), am following both you and your marketing list and subscribed to your email feeds. Thanks.
Whulla!! I already getting bored with ML contest , but I really like this handsome contest setup, more the love with jonathanvolk, more is the chance of winning.
But tell me how do you track all the contestants. and what to do after writing the article about your contest.
are you counting that attribute with trackback or anything else?

I suck at contests
.. Internationals can join?
haha guess not
Retweeted this post…though…technically that is just asking for my chances of winning to be diminished.
Ok, I got 4 of the 5 done. I guess I am in the contest. I don’t know which prize is better 1st or 2nd. I like the thought of having 2 monitors, but I also know that having a free ad on here would be awesome.
Great.
I have entered your contest and am looking forward to the results next month. Anyway I do have a question.
Can we retweet any blog post on your blog and for every post we retweet we receive 1 point?
If so, does this mean if we retweet 10 of your blog posts, we get 10 points right?
Count me into this contest. I’ll be joining soon
Damn, those dual monitors would be sweet. It’s almost tempting to finally get on facebook or twitter just for a chance of winning those. Then again, I never win contests like that. So I’ll just go back to marketing my own websites instead.
So far I’ve been pretty lucky at winning online contests…hoping this holds true here too!
The best part of participating in your contest is that you have an awesome blog with valuable affiliate tips I can be proud to share w/followers!
Thanks for the opportunity, Jonathan!
Oh Man, I love me some Dual Monitors =D Well I am a fan of your facebook page, and I am already subscribed to this blog, so hopefully I can win the prize. Still though on a side note, that’s super generous of you to give away two dual monitors!
Till then,
Jean
I am doing all of the above except the blog post. Hope to win!
Great contest! The prizes are awesome and entering is a breeze.
Any body can join???? i mean is it open globally????
Yea Global. Depending on taxes, etc I might send the winner a cash equivalent if they are in a more remote country.
Thanks,
It has been the remarkable effort after all.
I put up the first round of prizes and then some other vendors have been and are still continuing to donate more.

Awesome, its time to join
Jon, my interest in going for this contest is for the 125 x 125 ad on your site! that is really exciting. i am tweeting from @floppycats because that is my older and established twitter. i thought it would be better for you as i have more followers on that one than i do on my @bizblogwriters – so if i won, would you allow me to choose which site i wanted to promote on your site?
Jon, how do you keep track of who is who and the points and what not? is there an automated program that does it? if so, will you write a blog post about it, please?
Damn, how did I miss this contest! No time like the present to get started I guess.
