The Philosophy Behind Contestime

It's Contestime! I was thinking of launching the blog officially in January 2008 but thanks to the kind feedback from those that had contacted me, I will be posting contests straight away so as not to keep everyone waiting too long.

Why start an international blog contest site? While there are numerous blog contest sites out there, there are so few that cater to EVERYONE. And some sites that claim to post international contests or freebies actually post quite a lot of country-specific stuff as well. We all know that the blogosphere is an international arena and I am aware how frustrating it is for international bloggers when they happily spot a great blog contest only to see "Open only to those from XXX country". Hence the inspiration behind a blog contest site devoted solely to showcasing contests which EVERY blogger around the world can participate in. Whether you are in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, Japan, Thailand, India, Brazil, Morocco or anywhere else, you are welcome on the Contestime Blog and Contestime.com.

Contests will be posted in English as it is a lingua franca which links everyone around the world and ensures no one gets left out.

I invite international bloggers to support our cause by submitting your contests to me. Check out the sidebar for more details. There are also options to advertise, feature your contest prominently or sponsor a contest. Subscribe to our RSS feeds via a reader or email so you never miss a contest again.

Contestime is committed to bringing only worthwhile contests to our readers so we will screen contests and post only those that meet our criteria.

It's contestime and EVERYONE (and I mean everyone) is invited!
