November/December Competition - Deadline: 31 December

[Genesis]

Our November Competition is for hosted members who are keen bloggers, or newbie bloggers. This is your chance to win a basic paid premium account with Gigarank for three months. If the winner keeps being active on our forum and/or with blog posts past the expiry of the three month period, the basic premium account will continue for as long as the member is active.

Specifications of the paid hosting account are:

10GB Disk Space
50GB Bandwidth
Unlimited Domains
Unlimited FTP Accounts
Unlimited MySQL Databases
24/7 Support
Daily Backups

We welcome blog post submissions on any current topic of web hosting including web design and development, administration, security, hosting or any related topics. If you like you can check through our Gigarank Blog to see what topics have already been published:

Rules are the following:

1. Only those who already have a free hosting account with Gigarank may participate in the competition.

2. The blog post has to be your own work and not published anywhere else before. It has to be an original that has been written for the competition.

3. You can submit as many entries as you like. But not two versions of the exact same entry.

4. Once your blog post is ready you can PM the contents to Genesis. If it looks suitable for publishing the blog post will be immediately published.

5. Closing date for entries is 30 November. We will then look at the published articles and judge the best one out of the ones that have been published.

This is sooooooo awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :yahoo:

Do we send the blog posts in word format for example to genesis for approval?

Does it work if we already have a paid account but could get a free year? Because I do...

 

[Genesis]

You definitely qualify for the competition Vera. I was hoping you would participate as I thought this would be a good competition for you. Think it should work if you PM me the contents.

This competition seems to be a really great opportunity for every free hosted member to get a free upgrade. Just a question, can you please explain this one:

"f the winner keeps being active on our forum and/or with blog posts past the expiry of the three month period, the basic premium account will continue for as long as the member is active."

Does it mean that we have to stay active on forums or we have to make another blog post after 3 month period?

Cheers!

Cheers!

Means you have to stay active on the Forum by posting regularly. Would be nice if the winner makes some more blog posts as well, but that is not compulsory.

I'm really busy lately with work, but until the end of the competition I am sure I can write a post or two for the blog.

 

[Genesis]

That would be awesome Vera. Many thanks. :good:

 

[Genesis]

You first have to qualify for a hosting account. Suggest you read our Guidelines for Quality Posts and Forum Rules before you proceed further.

Regrettably we only had one entry for the competition. The deadline of the competition is therefore being extended to end of December for those bloggers among us who still want to submit an entry.

We welcome blog post submissions on any current topic of web hosting including web design and development, administration, security, hosting or any related topics. Please check through our Gigarank Blog to see what topics have already been published as that would give you an idea of the kind of posts we are looking for:
