I am gearing up for the second annual Rookie Blogger of the Year Contest and looking for sponsors!
The contest last year was a major success and featured some awesome bloggers. This year will be bigger and better and I have some new ideas that I will be implementing. In addition to the contest where the readers will have the opportunity to Vote for their favorite new blogger of 2010, there will also be a “Best Blog Post” component of the contest. Additional details about both aspects of the contest will be coming in subsequent posts. I will also be accepting entries for the contest beginning on September 15th…again, I will write more about that in another post.
The purpose of this post is to reach out to you folks and see if you have an interest in being a sponsor for this contest. The contest will be structured in a way that provides maximum exposure (and links) for the sponsors. Every contest participant will be required to write a post about the contest and include links back to all the sponsors. In addition, I will feature 125×125 banner ads (for Gold) or text links (for Silver) on the homepage of this blog for the rest of the year for those that get involved in sponsoring.
I would like this to be a CASH contest so I will have three levels of Sponsorship:
GOLD – $100
Silver – $50
Bronze – $25
Please leave me a comment below or send an email to tycoonblogger at gmail dot com if you are interested or would like more information.
Oh, I wanna join this contest too. Let me know about the rules. Thanks. This is exciting. Hope I could win. =)
Thanks Dennis. Anytime before October is good. The time line that I am thinking about is Sept. 15 open the doors to entrants and then have the contest go for the month of October.
thanks guys, I made the edit…$50 for silver package
Is it on purpose that both gold and silver are $100 each? Then I think everybody would want the gold since they cost the same

Sounds interesting. I’ll look forward to participate if I’m eligible.
BTW the gold and silver sponsors both show as $100 in the post?
Hi Dan, how about a cash and goodies contest? I could throw in some premium memberships.
GOLD – $100
Silver – $100
I don't think you meant for those to be the same?
