		<description>So now I just need to get together a network of people to ask if they can donate prizes. I&#039;m going to work on this one. Nice idea.</description>

		<description>A contest, especially a big one can be pretty difficult for come up with for a new blogger. As you said, it&#039;s best to ask people for prizes through EntreCard, MyBlogLog etc in return for linking to them and mentioning them in a few posts.

		<description>Great post. A contest isn&#039;t necessarily an easy option for a new blogger, as it will take some time and hard work to get the word out. 

However, it just so happens that I&#039;m currently giving away a &lt;a&gt;Premium WordPress Theme&lt;/a&gt; on my site, in case anyone&#039;s interested.

		<description>Holding a contest has a downside too....you may not get the bang for your buck.  Many will just sign up to your feed then unsubscribe (thats what I would do).  It seems the blogging world has become flooded with Blogging SEO &amp; Monetizing.

Also you have the exact same layout as the cow??? As do others I come to find.  Why not edit some of the widgets/post boxes to make it unique?</description>

		<description>Great post

I tried this idea on one of my other blogs (http://chocolatedogblog.com/) over Christmas and it was a great success with little work.

I had the biggest page views ever because of people wanting to win a book.

I highly recommend this idea.

		<description>Nice post; however, when you said &quot;Anyways, I’m Jason Pereira, who blogs at The University Kid - the name speaks for itself.&quot; I actually didn&#039;t know what that meant so I had to go check out your blog to find out. (I suppose this is a good thing, but I just got a little confused  :grin:  ).

In any case, yes far too many people will start a blog only to give up when things don&#039;t look good.
