How I Make Money Online From Blog Contest?

by Lee Ka Hoong on November 8, 2009

Last month I’ve joined a blog contest in BloggingWithChris, it was a cash prizes contest which gave out up to $600 cash in paypal to more than 20 winners. The contest ran for about 2 months and the winners have been announced 2 days ago. Fortunately, I’ve won a $40 cash prize through paypal! It was my second time won cash prize through blog contest, it was pretty excited to see that and again I prove that we can actually make money online through joining blog contest.

Cash Prize From Blog Contest

How I Look For Blog Contest And Make Money Online

In my previous article “5 Tips How To Look For Blog Contest and Make Money Online“, I’ve stated 5 tips how you can find blog contest and make some quick cash. In my experience, I find that blog hopping is the best way to search for blog contest. As we know, nowadays many bloggers like to organize blog contest to drive more traffic, get more backlinks, get more subscribers, get more twitter followers, and of course get exposure to the public.

So you know many bloggers like to organize blog contest to improve their blog, blog hopping is the best way for you to look for blog contest. I used to read more than 10 blogs a day and I won’t miss out any blog contest organized by them, so when you find any blog that interest you, bookmark and read them regularly.

I’m not going to talk more about how you can search blog contest and make money online, it’s a very particular topic and I’m sure you know how to look for blog contest too. If you’re out of idea on how to look for contest, read my previous article and you’ll get some idea from there.

I was quite happy to win the cash prize, thanks to Chris Peterson who is the founder of BloggingWithChris.com. I’ll be spending the money for my new on-going project.

Have you won any cash prize from blog contest before? How much was that?

Hi Lee, What if the blogger himself will put a blog contest on his site? Do you think it will drive traffic?
