So MarketLeverage is continuing their crazy spree of blog advertising and is giving all these different blogs prizes to give away. Most places out there are doing a “1 point per comment” or “whoever makes me the most referral revenue” type contest out there. I’d like to do something that’s going to help all you guys out too. First let’s go over the prizes, MarketLeverage is throwing some in and I’m also contributing myself :
1st place
- $200 Rewards gift card from MarketLeverage
- An iPod Nano (may be a touch, I’ll keep you updated)
2nd Place
- $100 cash from me
- A ML Flip Mino video camera
3rd Place.
- $50 cash from me
- A ML USB flash drive pen

How do I win
Now onto how to actually win the prizes. In order to win, you’re going to have to simply write an article. The article must be the mistakes you’ve made in affiliate marketing, and what you learned from them. I’ll be writing one of these articles up myself, only I won’t give myself and prize haha. I’ll choose the winners based on my top 3 favories.
It’s a great topic though that can help us all, so we may not make the same mistakes you did.
The deadline for article entry is Monday, June 23. That’s one week.
Mail all entries to paul [at] uberaffiliate [dot] com. Good luck!

July 23rd? You mean June 23rd, right? And how do we win, you pick the best article, random draw or what?
June 16th, 2008 at 7:58 am
My bad, June 23rd.
Yep I’m picking by best articles.
June 16th, 2008 at 7:35 am
Hey Paul - I’ve sent you an email about this - but do these articles have to be new articles, ie. written from today onwards? Or can we submit older articles published in the past few months that are on this topic?
June 16th, 2008 at 7:58 am
If you have an older article on the subject that YOU wrote, you can submit it.
But I’m sure you’ve made a few mistakes in the past few months :p.
June 16th, 2008 at 7:38 am
What if our site isn’t about blogging and making money blogging?
Thanks
Steve
June 16th, 2008 at 7:59 am
You don’t have to have a site. It’s just you writing an article and emailing it to me, and I’ll publish the winners.
June 16th, 2008 at 8:15 am
Hey Paul,
Is the competition open to International readers? I’m in the UK and would love the chance to win and ipod…
Also, will the articles be published on your blog?
Thanks,
Jack

Paul - you forgot to reply to my comment!!!
June 16th, 2008 at 2:16 pm
Yep, you can participate.
June 16th, 2008 at 8:55 am
Great Paul. You just gave me an idea for my next blog post. I’ll submit the article to you and make it a blog post as well. Hope that is cool?
June 16th, 2008 at 10:03 am
Well if you win I’m going to post the whole article here and I’ll link back to your site if you have one. Then you can just make a post saying “here’s the article that won the contest” and link to it.
Don’t want to get hit with duplicate content.
June 16th, 2008 at 10:47 am
I’m going to look through my articles. Perhaps I’ll win any of the prize!! Thanks for this opportunity.
June 16th, 2008 at 12:11 pm
Paul you’re quite smart, many people will send their articles and even you might learn something of them without having to look for things you should NOT do on the internet. Nice, keep up the good work.
Btw, I’d really like to see a video tutorial that will just show a mini mini campaign from start to end. Because sometimes I don’t really know where to start with affiliate marketing. I’ve some campaigns running, but not yet that big profitable one I’m looking for.
Would be nice to see some video posts :)

June 16th, 2008 at 1:47 pm
lol what was that? i barely understood what you were asking
June 16th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
Well, first I said that this contest will get him a lot of articles that would be very useful for him and for us, thats a win-win situation. And he doesnt needs to do anything for it :)
Secondly, I would like to see a kind of video tutorial. On how he makes campaigns himself, from begin to end. Just to get inspired :)
June 16th, 2008 at 4:30 pm
Yup!.
Thanks..I ‘ll soon get to you!!.
June 16th, 2008 at 9:03 pm
Sounds great. I have one I did a while back that I will re-write since it was a dumb mistake that should be avoided lol.
Looking forward to reading the “tips” from others as well. Are you only going to be publishing the few winners or also be posting the other good ones that have good “don’t do” tips?
I definitely like this type of contest rather than all the “point” ones going on :)
June 16th, 2008 at 9:05 pm
Is it just me, or does the Market Leverage link not work?
June 17th, 2008 at 6:43 am
Oh hey Paul. I am living in Switzerland, Europe. Is it fine to participate to the contest as well? My grammar might be not that good, hehe.
