My Entrecard Contest Grand Prize Winner
Thursday, April 24, 2008 at 8:27 PM Posted by Angel
An Amazing Blog Contest from an Amazing Blog @ Hochstadt.com Party Contest!

After winning a free banner ads from a blog contest recently, I told myself that I will join another one again. Actually, I am seeing a lot of running contest but I am quite choosy. This will be only my third one. It is not because their prizes are low and the mechanics are weird, but because I am looking for the one who can amaze me again. Besides that, the blog must contain useful topics and should be posted magnificently.
Right now, I am frequently joining a generous giveaway by Article Specialist since I really love reading his quality articles from his Blognetwork.
And now, I am so glad I found another one. This is from Marcus Hochstadt of Internet Business Guide. So who’s he? Well, when I was starting at Entrecard, a widget is so popular and I am sure you noticed it too. It has a picture of a gorgeous office lady displaying a big card with a picture of a man.I hope my memory searched me right. If you are missing this widget, he changed it to promote his contest which you can see within this post.
So who is he again?
Well, when he was still a bachelor he was once among the top 5 Sales Executive of a French chemical company who eventually found himself loosing the job. But being a smart guy, he moved from Germany to Brazil and now enjoying the cool place near the beach with her wife. Since 2005, he is producing video demo for a well-known Canadian Internet Marketing company and currently owning three web sites. How do you do that, man?
And what is he blogging about?
As a token of gratitude to his learning about Internet Marketing, he decided to unselfishly share it to everyone through his blog. After making his first post on January 1, 2008 (yes, New Year’s day), his succeeding posts were remarkable. I should know because he is included in my Very Serious Droppers list in which I will make a surprise post some time soon.
So what is so amazing about his contest?
Before I continue, I advise you keep a glass of cool water on your side and sit comfortable. This will be quite long, not because of the mechanics but because of the amazing prizes that came from a bunch of generous Entrecard members and friends. This means that the contest is for EVERYONE!

But then, I will still be honored if it’s the interview by Alexys Fairfield from Soul Meets World. Besides being priceless, it’s fun to feel like a celebrity. Seriously speaking, the main reason is I want people to know more about me and hopefully, I can share a part of me that they can learn from.

Entrecard Giveaway First Weekly Update
Wednesday, April 2, 2008 at 11:45 AM Posted by Angel
I would like to reserve this post to fulfill a promise that I will make a weekly update about my contest. With this, I would like to inform you that as of today three bloggers have submitted 1 entry each who received 100ec from me and a chance to win 1,000ec on April 25, 2008. Here they are with a short description of their blogs.
Sherry Rambling – A blog owned by Sherry submitted one entry and discussed about what we can do when we cannot think of a good post. With that, I immediately consider that as one entry.
A Contest Blog – A blog owned by Valmg and also promotes interesting contests with wonderful prizes submitted one entry.
In addition, both of them also joined my other contest on my Happy Family Matters blog which means they received a separate 100ec.
Blog4me – A blog run by Mia who started blogging since September last year. Although she submitted two entries on my other contest which now makes her 300ec richer, she decided to make a post out of my tips about the most common mistakes of bloggers.
These three bloggers therefore has a chance to another 1,000ec to get a total of 2,000+ ec points just for re-posting my tips.
Again, I am inviting all of you to join my contest not only to win, but also to share to others my useful tips so everyone can learn somehow about blogging and how to have a happy family. For more details, please feel free to visit my special post.

I am giving away 2,000+ EntreCredits for quoting my posts!
Tuesday, March 25, 2008 at 3:31 PM Posted by Angel
This post is to clear the mechanics and prizes of my contest which was posted recently. I decided to make a new post about it instead of editing it to avoid confusion. So here it is latest one.
I am giving away 100ec for every post about my tips that you will make on your blog. You can win daily provided that you choose another topic. Last submission will be on April 23, 2008, since I will be choosing the best post that will receive additional 1,000ec. The rules are very simple.
1.0 Choose from the tips you can find in my All-Time Favorite Tips and Categories located in my sidebar, or Older Posts at the end of this page.
2.0 Make the best posts out of them in your blog with the freedom of using any title and style. I am not particular in the number of sentences as along as you tackle all the essential points of your chosen articles.
3.0 For every entry, you must inform your readers that you joined my contest with a link to this post.
4.0 After every entry, please comment on this post together with the link to your post so I can verify it and immediately send you 100ec.
Moreover, I will make a weekly update including the list of the names of the contestants which means a back link to them.
On April 25, 2008, I will announce the grand prize winner and award him the 1,000ec.
I have a separate contest on my Happy Family Matters blog and you can also join there even if you already joined here. This means that a lucky blogger can win 2,000+ Entrecard points.
With this, I would like to say Thank You Very Much to Article Specialist who unselfishly and patiently helped me so much in this contest.

I am giving away 2,000ec for the best post of my tips!
Sunday, March 23, 2008 at 4:11 PM Posted by Angel
This post has been succeeded by a later post to make the make the mechanics and prizes clearer. So, please ignore this post and visit this link instead.
Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.
As gratitude to all Entrecard members and to give new members a chance, I am giving away 2,000ec for the lucky winner who can make the best post out of my tips. The rules are very simple.
1.0 Choose the best tip for you that you can find in My All-Time Favorite Tips, Categories located in my sidebar, or Older Posts. You can also choose any of my articles in my Happy Family Matters blog if you are interested in parenting tips and marriage tips.
2.0 Make the best post out of it in your blog using the same title. I am not particular in the number of sentences or words as along as you tackle all the essential points of your chosen article. It is very important for me that your readers will understand and learn from my tips.
3.0 In addition, you must inform your readers that you joined my contest and include the name of Article Specialist who unselfishly sponsored this contest, with a link to this post and to his Blognetwork.
4.0 After you post your entry, please comment on this post together with the link to your post so I can verify it. Please do not send your entry through email to make it easy for me to count them.
5.0 But why do I need the numbers of the entries? This is because I will be giving away 100ec to each of the non-winners if they reach 30 or more, isn’t it wonderful? However, I am only allowing a single entry for each blogger to be fair with others. This is also to encourage you to make the best post.
This contest will run until April 24, 2008 and I will make a separate post that will inform you that the contest is over. Then I will make another post where I will announce the winner and give away all the prizes. Moreover, I will make a weekly post about the status of this contest including the list of the names of the contestants which means a back link to them.
Lastly, although this is not a must but I will really appreciate it if you drop your card and subscribe from my posts.
With this, I would like to say “Thank you from the bottom of my heart” to Article Specialist for helping me here. Apparently, he is also giving away 100ec unlimitedly if you could make a small post about his Blognetwork.
This means that by joining my contest, you may also receive 100ec from him. So before you join here, I strongly suggest that you visit his Blognetwork and check the sidebar for the details.
