125×125 Ad For Only $5? & A Car Contest!
Well, I have been a little busy lately working on a new concept to help me try and increase my rankings and I have figured that the best way to do so is to give away cash and prizes but without any money to begin with this would be a difficult feat.
So to help with that I will offer 1000 advertising spots on a page called the “Wall of Blogs” which will have a thousand 125×125 ad spots that you can purchase for only $5 each. If you do the math, thats about $5000 in total minus all the Paypal processing fees and such but what that will allow me to do is give away either one big prize of $500 and 5 small prizes of a 100 each OR two big prizes of $500 each. This will be cash paid to whoever wins the final contest.
I have decided to keep the price of the ad spot slow mainly because that will allow a lot more people to buy them. The ad spot is also much larger than most considering it is a full 125×125 ad spot. Hopefully this will be incentive enough for those willing to sign up! Below is a screen shot of how it will look.

The domain name has already been purchased and will fall into effect soon and when it does, I will be blogging about it to let you know. The cool thing about the ad spot is that it will be there forever and it provides a permanent link back to a URL of your choice! Also, you can buy as many as you want. The main idea will be to get as many people to sign on as possible. I will try to fill all the 1000 ad spots as soon as possible so that the winner can be drawn. I really wish I could estimate how long it would take to fill the spots but hopefully with a little exposure with the help of my blogging friends, this could certainly be possible. Once again, thank you for stopping by and let me know if you think this is a fairly good idea or not!
Prija’s Giving Away A Car
Thats right, Prija the sneaky individual that he is, is giving away a brand new Scion Tc to one winner! Currently you can become a sponsor by purchasing an ad spot on a second Scion for $100. The cool part is he will raise $50,000 with this scheme and that way he can have one car branded with your ads, and another car given away to one of the 500 people! Secondly, the additional money will be used to promote his movie called Blogging The Movie! Prija had sent out an email to everyone to blog about this on Sunday but since I wasn’t available yesterday I wasn’t able to get this in on time, so I’m sorry Prija! I hope you guys check out the website to get more details on this outrageous contest!
In the mean time, hold onto your seats and await my new website that will be out soon! Thanks again for all your support and committed readership!

Hmmm, I think I might have to get in on that wall of blogs! So are the people on the wall going to get a special prize as well? I’m not sure how much paypal takes, but you should be able to squeeze something out of that amount for a seperate drawing

Hey Enkay. The car is actually being given away for free. The $100 goes towards becoming a sponsor for the car. They get publicity. Can you please edit.

Your Wall of Blog is very similar to what is currently happening at BlogginsMostWanted.com
It is selling 625 blocks and giving away $1750 cash prizes in the eventual contest.

The wall of blogs idea sounds good but don’t you think 1,000 of these banners will be a little to much considering the size of these banners?

Hey there, I was considering how many would be good and some people suggested 10,000 but that is way too many. I’ve kept it at a 1000 because when you open up the test page it doesn’t seem like a lot the way it is done. Also, at the current price, 1000 seemed like a better number to make things work. Thanks for your input!

Oh yes, I have read about that before. The whole concept was to showcase bloggers and actually have a block that is able to accommodate a fairly large ad such as 125×125 and also cheaper to a point where most people would consider getting it.

Sorry! I totally misunderstood. I have gone in and changed it. Let me know if its fine now.

Hey Nick! Well everyone who gets a spot will get a permanent link back but the main benefit is that you will also be a part of blogging history by being on the only “Wall of Blogs” which is basically the Wall of Fame for bloggers. Secondly, everyone that buys a spot on the wall has a chance to the win the money!

Enkay, if possible pick up the contest train from here http://www.lifeiscolourful.com/blogging-train-by-cashforcomments/
I could not find any other best post to write it, but thought to pass it on to you where you mentioned about cashforcomments.

125Ãâ€â€125 ad spots for $5 that’s interesting!
when will the site gets online?
about 4 years ago
Two questions.
1) Can we buy 2 or 4 spots and create a 125×250 or 250×250 ad?
2) Would you take $20 to reserve the upper left 125×125 box?

what benefit would one get, besides a backlink, to purchase a spot?/
about 4 years ago
Hi BeachBum, yes any number of adspots can be purchased by the same person. The website is live right now but I will be emailing a 100 of my blogging friends about this so they can blog about it and a purchase a spot if they wish. If you would like, I will send that email to you too.
Thanks!

The main benefit is that you will be part of blogging history AND that you will be entered into a contest for a chance to win $500!

Depending on how well this goes and if I sell all the adspots, then I will double the winning amount to include 2 prizes of $500 each.

I just purchased a spot and posted about it on my BLOG. The logo I used was one I made quick, you were faster at releasing the site then I thought.
Thank You and good luck with this project.

Well, I’ve purchased my spot! I might want to change the image later though, I saw that a link will be emailed to me to be able to do that.
