Are you a passionate blogger?
Do you wish to own your own dot com and host your own blog?
Well, as part of 5xmom’s giving back to the blogging community efforts, she is going to give away prizes worth USD200.
Here are the prizes to be won :
1) Two prizes consisting of One year webhosting and a free domain name purchase.
(You get a WordPress.org blog installed free of charge.)
2) Five free domain names
(Blogspot users can use their own domain names without a hosting)
Criteria for participation :
1) You should already have a nicely maintained blog on a free hosting. Not some spammy made for paid post blogs . A right balance is fine. (I will be able to judge on this. π )
2) Your blog has to be at least three months old. To prove that you are blogging consistently.
3) You can be from anywhere in the world but the hosting will be provided by my webmaster.
How to win?
1) Write one post about 200 words why you think blogging is beneficial. You need to quote ;
a) The contest with prizes sponsored by 5xmom (link to http://chanlilian.net) who runs the Make$ Money$ (link to http://www.5xmom.com) blog and she is contributing back to the blogging community with the money she earned. She will be giving away monthly prizes if this contest is popular. Please encourage your readers and friends to participate as well.
(Hey, no bullshit ok? Just a simple quote with the two links using the correct names will do. I am more interested to hear your views on the usefulness of blogging.)
Closing date : 10th October, 2007. You need to leave your post permanent URL in this comment box. I will pick the best seven and allow my readers to vote for the winner. That means, the top two will win the hosting and domain while the other five will get a domain.
Other bloggers, if you can help, maybe you can post about the contest so that bloggers can Go Dot COM too.
This helps to create more 10K malaysian blogger, nice one

Hi,
Can any exceptions be made to the 3 month rule? l have been blogging for about 6 weeks, and I blog almost daily. If you take a look you can see it fits all your criteria except that one.
I would very much like to enter the contest and have been thinking about that very topic for quite some time!
I have a question: what if we run over the 200 word limit? Do we get disqualified?
Hallo! Am I qualified??? My site ‘hor ny’ wan!! Even smorty & PPP reject me! Tq tq in advance for ur advice. Have a nice day!
I posted my “entry” liao. Maybe let your readers decide if I qualify anot. Hahaha. Kesian a bit mah, try so hard. Lol! Here is the url to my post.
The Blogger’s Poem
Kai: I remember Lilian once shared her writing post paid techniques. She said that when she’s required to write 200 words, she’d double it. So if I were you, I’d double the length. Hehehehe. See, I so nice. lol. (eh, you the kai i know?)
Hor ny: Wahhh! I want to see hornyangmoh.com! hahaha that’ll be interesting!
@:LittleRay: I doubt I am the same Kai that you know. This is the first time I’ve been to this blog. Unless you’re a student in MMU, it’s unlikely that you’d know me. That said, thanks for the advice, mate.
i WANT TO JOIN.
Blogging is beneficial because it can help other people and it does make the world small possible.
