It is great to get back to blogging!

by on 07. Oct, 2009 in Marketing and Promotion

This is the longest stretch I have had away from this blog since I started it back in February.  I think I had a good excuse, I spent the last week in Disney World.  I had an outstanding time but I did miss my blog and visiting the blogs of my friends.  For my first post back, I wanted to provide a general update on what to expect here over the next couple of months.  As most of you know, I am hosting my first major blog contest here called “Rookie Blogger of the Year” contest.

I am still going through all the entries, through comments and contact form I have received interest from over 100 rookie bloggers.  I am checking out all of them one by one to ensure that they have been started this year and that they are in the blogging/technology/MMO/social media or closely related niche.

I will post the blogs that are in the contest on October 15th and that is when the voting will officially begin.

In addition to exposure and bragging rights, I will be sponsoring $100 via PayPal and a full year of advertising (125 x 125 banner) here on Tycoon Blogger ($360 value).

If you would like to help sponsor this contest with cash, ad space, blog reviews, etc… Please drop me a comment below and let me know.

If you want to be notified when the voting begins or if you want to be kept in the loop, subscribe to Tycoon Blogger here .

    Sometimes even doing something you enjoy so much, but for long undisturbed periods of time, causes some burnout. Doesn’t it feel great to get back to something you like after a little break? It’s a little bit like relationships isn’t it :P

    I’ve never been to disney world. I should probably go sometime just so I can quit saying I’ve never been there. Hope you had fun.

    I’m personally a bit upset that I missed the date. Because of my stupid procrastination I never submitted my site.

    Well, well. Just move on I guess. If you are interested I would be able to give away advertising on GoogleAdSenseGenerator.com as a prize.

    We could sponsor something… but it would probably be a “conflict of interest”, as we are in the contest… correct?

    Welcome back. I hope you and your family (assuming this of course) had a great time. I’ve been there with my kids a couple of years ago and boy do I miss it (maybe more than my kids, haha).

    Regarding your contest, I’m in for a 125X125 for 30 days, if you want.

  17. Lee Ka Hoong 08. Oct, 2009 at 7:39 am #

    Cool to see you back Dan!

    Same to George, I visited your blog for few times this few days too, seems that you was doing good there! :)

    I would be happy to sponsor a 125×125 banner ads for 1 month. Let me know if you’re fine with it.

    Regards,
    Lee

    Welcome back buddy :)

    I visited your site a few times and saw there were no updates. Thought something happened to you.

    I will sponsor $25 as a prize, not much but it all adds up.
