How To Win This Contest?

Winning this contest is simple. You just have to publish a well written guest post and collect as many points as possible. Every guest post published during the contest period will be a part of this contest so you don’t have go into any formalities of telling me that I wanna take part and blah blah..The guest author who collects the most points wins the prizes listed above according to their position in the chart.

The Points System

For becoming the winner of this contest, you will have to collect points and the author having highest points at the end of the contest will win the prizes.

  1. For your every guest post that gets published on SmartBloggerz, you will get 2 points. You can submit any amount of guest post for review.
  2. 10 Retweets of your guest post = 1 point
  3. 5 BlogEngage Votes = 1 point
  4. Every unique commentator in your guest post excluding author replies = 1 point
  5. 5 Digg Votes = 1 Point

[From 2-5 in the above list, I will call it as “social media points“]

That’s it! Collect points and win this contest. But do note here one important thing: the social media points will be rewarded only for one guest post which makes the best in total.

An Example For The Explanation Of Points System

I think most of you have understood the points system for this contest and how you will be earning them. But still, those who are still confused with it, here is an example for an easy explanation.

Suppose a guest author – Mr. SB registers for a contributor account at SmartBloggerz for participating in this contest. He submits 2 articles which gets published, titled as:

  1. How to Blog
  2. Importance Of Blog

Now, for these guest posts which then gets published, gives him a total: 2 x 2=4 Points

Now consider that article – “How to Blog” gets ~ 25 re-tweets, 12 unique comments, 10 blog engage votes and 15 digg votes. So on calculating, the total social media points will be: 25/10 x 1 + 12 x 1 + 10/5 x 1 + 15/5 x 1 = 19.5 Points

Again, the article – “Importance Of Blog” gets ~ 20 re-tweets, 10 unique comments, 10 blog engage votes and 10 digg votes. So on calculating, the total social media points will be: 20/10 x 1 + 10 x 1 + 10/5 x 1 + 10/5 x 1 = 16 points

Clearly, the article “How to Blog“ is getting more social media points, thus only those points will be added to points generated by the submission of guest post i.e the overall total of guest author – Mr. SB for this contest: 4 + 19.5 = 23.5 points.

Now I hope that you have understood properly how the points will be distributed. But still!! if you haven’t understood it then forget everything as you don’t have to worry about it. You just have to submit articles for review and everything will be handled by me.

Some Simple Rules

The rules for this contest are very simple but should be obeyed properly…

  • For earning “social media points” you can’t bribe or purchase something that would increase your chances of winning. But you can obviously ask your friends, take help from your blog readers for helping you in winning this contest but that should be without any kind of bribe like “I will give you some part of the prizes on winning” etc…
  • The Guest articles should be clear in language and must obey the guest posting guidelines.
  • Maximum 3* articles will be published in a day on this blog, so priority over publishing will be given to those guest posts which were submitted earlier for review.
  • Please avoid submission of such articles which are very basic in nature and whose quality suits only the “Article Directories”. Please try giving your articles a catchy title (if possible and relevant). Use images, heading tags and make it creative.

* most probably one or two per day | Max. 3 only if high volume of submission is noticed.

Tips For Winning This Contest

For winning this contest you can take help of these tips:

  • SmartBloggerz blog is suitable for articles related to blogging tips, make money online and seo. So submitting articles related to it could result in better chances over winning the contest.
  • You can also publish some interesting guide or tutorials or tricks which are very beneficial for other people. For example: How To Speed Up WordPress Blog In 3 Simple Steps or My 3 Killer Methods To Build Massive Backlinks etc.
  • For gaining more re-tweets you can submit an article related to “Twitter”. Similarly, submitting articles related to digg or blogengage will get you more votes on those sites thus increasing your social media points.

Contest End Date

The contest will end on 26th May 13th June completely. Any guest post submitted for review after 26th May won’t be counted eligible for this contest.  The result will be declared around 1st June 20th June as I will need some time for evaluating the points.

    1. Actually it’s not gonna be 3 plus articles per day, it will be only Max. 3 per day and it will only happen in the rare situation that if the volume of submission of articles increases highly. Otherwise the blog will be only updated with 1 or maybe with 2 posts.

      I just wanted to put that rule keeping in mind all the possibilities of this contest so that people don’t get confused that why there articles hasn’t been published and blah blah..

  2. That’s an amazing contest with lots of tempting prizes! I’m proud to be one of the sponsors, and I’ll also take part in the contest. I’m sure you’ll probably get 1-2 guest posts a day from now on. There are some prizes that I like to win, so I’ll probably join the contest.

    Stay tuned for my 1st guest post Sushant.

    1. Thanks lee for such nice words..Also thanks for sponsoring. Will be waiting for your guest post to come up for review.

  3. There is an error on the example of the point system. 1 approved article equals to 2 points. It supposes to be 2 x 2 articles = 4 points instead of 3 x 2 = 6 points. So Mr.SB will only get 4 + 19.5 = 23.5 points.

    Correct me if I’m wrong Sushant.

    1. Thanks man..Corrected it now. Actually, while I was preparing this post, I thought to put 3 guest post by Mr. SB in the example but then I thought to make it 2 to remove unnecessary information but looks like I forgot to change something in there. Thanks for looking at the post carefully and pointing out the mistake ;).

  9. Wow! That’s fantastic. A guest posting contest with so much up for grabs. I have my exams in this month so I would not be able to participate but this is surely a big one from SmartBloggerz.

    Very Nice.
