		<description>Hey Viraj,

Thanks for stopping by. It's really hard to get a competition going until you have a critical mass of readers/subscribers to your blog. You can get the word out by asking (begging) other bloggers in your niche to help promote your contest. 

Otherwise, you could also up the ante and consider offering bigger prizes to attract more attention to your contest. 

Hope this helps.</description>

		<description>Hey Hock,
I'm running a competition for bloggers at the moment (http://www.bloggertoblogger.com/index.php/topic,74) but it's not working!

I agree I don't yet have a 'cricitcal mass' of enough members but I have been promoting it quite heavily.

To me it seems good (but it would, wouldn't it!) - could you give me your tips/ideas and help me turn it around?

Cheers!</description>

		<description>Thanks for the mention, Hock. I certainly learnt a thing or two about how 'not' to run an online competition when I gave it a shot.</description>
