Nimrodjo.com Contest
Written by Erz on Friday, January 04, 2008Nimrodjo.com contacted me to let me know that he is having a contest for the new year. The prize: A 125 X 125 px ad space for a month (worth $25) in BlogSoc.com + USD 5 via PayPal. There are several ways to enter:
Comment in any post = 1 entry
Subscribe to this blog through RSS or email = 2 entries
Optional: Review his blog = 2 entries
Compulsory: Review BlogSoc.com (You must review BlogSoc.com in order to win) = 4 entries
My review:
BlogSoc.com is basically a site for bloggers to get to know new bloggers (and blogs) and to promote their own. It promises to provide opportunities for its members to earn shares in their society's earnings with a claim that they may be able to get real money for them in the future. Though not new, this is an interesting idea worth exploring, as it acts as an incentive for its members to participate actively. However, with an increasing number of websites promising similar goodies, it is important to build credibility by actually delivering tangible benefits (recall the Agloco case example).
I do like the logo and the layout of their website, which is easy on the eyes. However, it would be helpful if BlogSoc.com had an FAQ page which addresses some concerns of potential members, such as how they can earn their shares and how theses may be used. More background on the site and owners as well as a privacy policy may also act as an assurance for visitors and potential members. Nonetheless, they seem to have a growing community of members which bodes well for the future.

Contest ends 31st January 2008 and the winner will be picked by his sponsor, the owner of BlogSoc.com.
