Finally, A Unique Contest Idea
Not A Pro Blog is a unique take on blogging by Jordan Cooper. The very essence of his site - a comedic view on blogging - epitomizes the value of finding a ‘hook’ in a crowded market. His contest ideas are no exception, as he proves with his unique (and sneakily viral) yet funny regifting contest.




Thanks for the positive feedback, James…
I’m glad you’ve recognized the “sneakily viral” aspect of the contest. I think it goes along with my viewpoint about organic promotion. Instead of forcing people to share your stuff in order to win a prize, create content (in this case, the contest itself) that has a shareable aspect to it.
If everything works out according to plan, the contest post, my blog and everyone else’s blog will be promoted by the very nature of it. All without having to “con” people to retweet it.
