The contest is basically a (feedback initiative) to get YOU to help ME and WIN some cool prizes in the process. As some of you may know i started this blog back in 2007 as a hub for my growing network of web properties. But it’s been a challenge for me to monetize, not to mention maintaining focus as to what the heck the blog is about.

I wanted the blog to be a catch all, a blog i could write anything on. But this makes it hard to monetize and also to develop any sort of following.

So to make a long story short, pitch me your ideas, opinions, and feedback on what i should do with this PR4 blog. If YOUR IDEA is electrifyingly good, then you might,

WIN THE FOLLOWING SPECTACULAR PRIZES:

1st place. “Blogging In Action” package. Learn more about the product here.
2nd place. “Expert WordPress” package. Learn more about the product here.
3rd place. $10 will be deposited into your Paypal account.

The contest ends on December 8th, and you enter by leaving comments on Max’s blog. Tell your friends, and be sure to link to the contest. (pretty please, with a cherry on top)

Remember to enter you must leave a comment on Max’s blog. Good Luck!

He asked bloggers to photograph themselves in their sandals (or as he calls them – mandals) and they would be entered to win $100 Gift Certificate From Zappos. I did just that, see my entry to the right of the blog, in the sidebar.

Yep that is me in my brown Okabashi sandals and white socks, in my backyard.

In all 5 lucky winners will be picked, and each will win $100 bucks to use online at shoe retailer Zappos. That is pretty freakin sweet. Now i have a BIG FAVOR to ask of YOU, which is to go to Jim’s site, and VOTE FOR ME.

Checking out my RSS feed, i notice a slew of cool contests for bloggers this weekend. Im going to round some up below. What’s up for grabs? Some bloggers are giving away everything from EC credits to domain books and services, from SEO consultations to banner ads, and of course, good ole hard cash. Oh, and Mike from Bloggin-Ads is giving away the creme de la creme of prizes, not 1 – but 2 MacBook Air laptops. Sweetness!

• Grab a MacBook Air from Mike (and his lovely wife).
• A Massive Domainers Contest going on at DNXpert. Loads of solid prizes on this one, including cash.
• ScriptDebate has a contest where he is giving away 2,000 EC credits, plus up to $50 in Paypal cash.

Those are the best ones this week. Some require you to subscribe to their feed by email, others require just a comment or stumble. The requirements vary, and some end in May, while others last till middle of June.

Go for it, and good luck. In case you’re wondering if these blogger contest work. Yes, they do. Yours truly is a winner. I won a free copy of the NEW ProBlogger Book by Darren Rowse and Chris Garrett. Courtesy of Wendy from SparkPlugging. When the book arrives, i will write a review post on the book. I’m totally looking forward to the arrival of the book.

Good Luck! (go now and join. you won’t win, if you don’t join)
