Who could use some extra cash? FamousBloggers and ComLuv are putting together an exciting new contest for all CommentLuv members interested in “Blogging Your Way Into Cash“.
We have collected a fantastic prize fund of real cash prizes as this is the kind of prize that people want! check out Heshams’ post where he collected stats from a poll asking his readers what the best prize to offer was, it was an overwhelming vote for cash money!!
The contest should prove popular because the cash prize pool is already over 3500 dollars before we’ve even started the contest! More sponsors are welcome to join so there is no telling how high we might go.
Today is the first official announcement about the contest. We want to thank all the sponsors we have so far and hope all our CommentLuv members will drop by and visit their sites. Most are CommentLuv blogs so do say hello and share one of your latest or most important posts.

How valuable are links on ComLuv? Andy previously shared that one text link on ComLuv made Fired Wok number one for Chinese Takeaway Lancaster.
Want another example? I edited the site name on my CommentLuv profile last week to use the phrase Social Media Marketing Strategist and made a few comments in the ComLuv blog. I have never linked using that phrase anywhere else and my blog already appears on the first page at Google for the phrase “Social Media Marketing Strategist” (in quotes).
Since Google results are both personalized and rapidly changing I’m including the screen capture below as proof. Notice that the image shows that this screen capture is of page 1 of the results. (I’m graphics challenged and assure you this is an unmodified screen capture.)
Appearing on the first page at Google for your important keyword phrases = more traffic = more readers and can = more income from advertising, sales or leads (for those interested in earning money from their blogs and sites).
Being a ComLuv contest sponsor is a small investment for the exceptional link opportunities each sponsor receives not to mention the increased exposure you receive from over 20,000 bloggers who use CommentLuv.

This is going to be an awesome contest and I am glad I am a part of it. For those who will participate, all the best and good luck. As Andy and Hesham said, this is a win/win situation for everyone.

I agree , it’s going to rock the hard 1
Thanks for being a sponsor!

Thank you DiTesco for sponsoring the contest, very soon we will be rocking! I love this kind of blogging contests because full of two things … Fun and Surprises
Hesham recently posted..The Art of Organizing a Successful Guest Blogging Contest
Can’t wait to see the contest! Going to mention the sponsorship opportunity to one of my clients.
I got your dm thanks!

Hey Andy,
I’m going to rock the boat and join your contest. G’luck buddy
Melvin recently posted..Bloggers, Its Time To Forget those Metrics
Awesome!! I can’t wait to get in on it as a blogger, and possibly as a sponsor too!
Being a sponsor is an awesome way to raise visibility and gain many high value in-content almost all dofollow incoming links from unique sites.
The downside is sponsors are not eligible to win and neither am I because I’m connected with the contest. If we won some might cast aspersions and we can’t have that.
Who else do you want to include in your book? I know many bloggers who might interest your readers.

Hi.
I understand and completely agree about casting aspersions if sponsors were eligible. In light of that, I prefer to enter as a contestant instead and go for the win!
As far as who to include in my book, it’s really more than a book because there’s a system the powers the solutions found in the book regarding Social Media Personal Branding.
I’m Super Excited to find out that you know many interesting bloggers to include. They can be from any niche, as long as they’re using social media to create, grow and promote their personal brand and their own products.
In narrowing down the list of potential bloggers to include, having an affiliate program to their products and services will be greatly increase their likelihood of being chosen.
We’re using the formula of using a book as a promotion tool to launch of the Pro Manager Social Networking System.
Details to be announced on my blog… but can say that we have a 2-Tier affiliate Program that pays out to your Paypal account in about 2 weeks.
Do you personally know the interesting bloggers that you mentioned?
Lastly, I didn’t see your comment until today. If there was a “subscribe to comment” (like on my blog ) I would have subscried. But I’ll keep coming back here to check your replies. Thanks.
Im looking to sponsor the event. Please let me know who to contact.
Thanks
sorry it took so long to get back to you Bill, it’s been manic with all the sponsors !! hopefully Gail or Hisham (or both) have contacted you already.
Good to go! Thanks for getting us up and running.
hey, no problem!! thanks for being a sponsor!

Sounds interesting!
I look forward to finding out more on Monday.
I have tweeted this.

Thanks for this opportunity. I will join this contest.
I emailed Hesham if there would be a minimum for sponsoring this contest and he said yes. I want to become one of the sponsors but I didn’t meet the minimum of $50.
So, I join the contest though.

like what I said on DiTesco and Hesham’s post, I’m looking forward to this contest.
Sounds fun and exciting

I’ve only just come across Commentluv, this all looks interesting and useful if I can figure out how it all works!
glad you like it, be sure to install it on your http://blog.sleepingbagshop.co.uk site !
good luck with your entry!
I’d like to join and see my world rockin’!
follow the rules in the post to see how you submit your article and good luck!
Looking forward to this… Now I have to come up with an original piece.
So Andy, If I want to be a sponsor…does that disqualify me to be a participant in the contest?
Let me know.
Thanks
I think the general concensus is that it would look bad if a prize sponsor won their own prize so it would disqualify you in the contest yes. Sorry!
Hi Andy,
We entered the contest as a $100 sponsor yesterday and Hesham updated this list of sponsors yesterday with our entry, but now it’s gone! Is there something we must do differently?
Disregard Andy. I got this post confused with your other post, http://comluv.com/news/official-cash-contest/ A lot of posts circulating around about this contest. That’s a good thing.
glad you found it!
this is why we were asking for sponsors earlier so we can get them on more posts. The official one is the one we’ll update and ask entrants to copy the sponsors links from.
I hope the exposure works well for you!
I’m looking to sponsor the event. Please let me know who to contact.
Thanks
I emailed you when your comment first came in but did not get a reply. I made your comment live in case you came back by.
