Official October Contest – $2200+ Worth Of Prizes Given Away
It’s that time of year again! The stores start changing their goods to reflect Halloween, numerous websites change the look of their sites to reflect the day.. and then some bloggers create contests that are just to easy to enter.

Yes, that took a while to type. But nevertheless, I personally thank each and every sponsor for donating their prizes in order to make this a kick-ass contest.
Alright, now for the ways you can enter! Deadline is October 31st.
How To Enter This Huge Contest:
We have two ways of doing it. I’ll be choosing the winners of the custom blog designs, and the copy of the ALLCapture Enterprise edition. The rest of the prizes will be chosen by Random.org via this entry style. See below this section for the other way to enter.
- Subscribe via email (5 Entries). This is so that you can receive the contest updates to your email inbox – Mandatory. *Update* – Please go to the sidebar and fill in the information.. The box wasn’t working here.
- Become A Top Commentator (50 Entries) On This Blog By October 31st. You can tell if you’re a top commentator by looking at the correct section of the sidebar.
- Digg This Contest (10 Entries)
- Write a post about the Balesio website (our platinum sponsor) – review style format. Write your opinions. (25 Entries)
- Write a post about this contest and include the sponsor list. (25 Entries)
- Display either the 125×125 contest advertisement or 468×60 contest advertisement on your website for the duration of the contest. (I will check periodically for the people who have entered) (50 Entries)
How to win the larger prizes:
There are Two Winners – I will choose them based on the honesty of the review, as well as how useful it is to make the blog a better one:
- First place will receive: Custom Blog Design + All Capture Enterprise Edition
- Second place receives a Custom Blog Design
- All of the other entries receive 35 Entries towards the lottery
Here is what you have to do to enter this part of the contest:
- Write an honest review on Bradblogging.com – Critique or praise, It doesn’t really matter to me. What do you think of the website? Would you recommend it to another person? Minimum 300 Words.
- Link to one or more pages that you like/despise.
- On Oct 31st, 2008 – I will choose a winner.
- The people who don’t win from the review for this part of the section will receive 35 Entries for the other part above. So you really have nothing to lose

Can’t wait to see what everyone is going to do for this contest. When you’ve completed one of the items, simply comment here and I’ll verify that the entry is valid, and credit you your entries.
All of the current email subscribers will gain 5 entries, so don’t worry about that.
Good Luck to all and have a great October! Stay tuned for some content that truly will make your blogging life easier.
*****
Legal Information:
By entering this contest, you agree by the following terms. I have good trust in all of the sponsors and that they will deliver everything that they have committed too, but just incase there is a “rotten apple” (which is morally wrong and shameful) among the bunch, here is our terms:
- All of the sponsors that have not given Bradblogging.com any of the goods and therefore we have no control of whether they will actually deliver the prize. In the event of you winning a prize, we will contact them and give them your email to sort out shipping and of transfer of the prizes won.
- In the event of the sponsors not giving you what you have won, we will not be held responsible or in anyway liable.

Lost me a bit. So there are two parts:
1. Review, winner handpicked, part of prizes. Which prizes exactly? One winner or few?
2. Other stuff, lottery, rest of prizes.
Right?

Also getting error with subscription (wish I could skip it, RSS ftw).
Is “above the fold” required for banner? I put it up, tell me if you want me to move it higher and I’ll shuffle blocks a bit. By the way there are no alt attributes for images in code provided.

Hi Rarst. The only reason why I say to subscribe via email is that there is no way to track the people using RSS..
Above the fold isn’t required.. Your ad is fine. Thanks for participating.
Neato I’ll be trying out for this competition! Can’t wait! I think I’ll be Digging this soon then I will Advertising your website/contest, and then I will write about this contest with a minimum of 200 words,
Final thing , this may not be in the right section but I was wondering if 200 mb of space for a website is enough for hosting cause it’s only a loonie a month! Or should I go for the 500mb for a toonie a month??? But ya I really like the idea of this contest, very awesome! I love the first place and second prize too:P

Navjot Singh’s last blog post..Name the Kitty Contest
There is a fun feeling acquired when looking through the different prizes to see which one is most preferable or has a certain feature that we might be looking for. It has the feel of a raffle contest, and those are quite exciting when the results are released and the contestants find out what may be provided to them.
