Uncork the possibilities! Write a review about californiawinehikes.com.
If you’re a blogger and you love really good wine - or love somebody who does - I hereby offer you a contest: review my website, California Wine Hikes, and I’ll link to your review from my blog, Winehiker Witiculture. If your review is the best one submitted, you will win a case of wine.
If you don’t have a blog, you can still participate! Just post your review on Amazon.com.
For details, read on.
The rules are pretty simple: your review must be at least 200 words long and you must include a link to the California Wine Hikes home page and to this post. If you like, you may also link to any other page on California Wine Hikes or to any posts on this blog.
The most important element of your review? You must be completely honest. Tell the world what you like and/or what you don’t like about the site, how it could be improved, or why you would or wouldn’t choose to book a tour. It doesn’t matter what categories your blog covers, though it will be helpful if your review is written in English. Nevertheless, I will accept all reviews.
After you have written your review, send me an email that contains the URL to your posted review. In turn, I will periodically update my blog to list links to all new reviews - daily, if possible.
To provide you an incentive to write high-quality content, I’m offering to ship a case of wine (that’s twelve 750ml bottles), personally selected by me, The Winehiker, to the blogger who posts the best review.* The total value of this case will be at least $500 U.S., not including tax and shipping. Folks, that’s almost $42 per bottle. And believe me, it will be really good wine. If you’re the winner, and if you wish, I will make every attempt to tailor my wine selections to your taste (within reason).
The review that garners a 2nd place finish will win its author one bottle of wine valued at approximately $40.
Even if you don’t win any wine, you’ll still get a link from me. Therefore I recommend you write the best review that you possibly can. Remember, your review will be read by a lot of readers, many of whom will be commenting. Their comments on your blog will help me decide which reviewer to give the prize to. Meanwhile, this contest will close on November 1st, 2007; I will ship the wine to the lucky winner shortly thereafter, and announce who that lucky winner is here on this blog.**
Does this contest sound blogworthy to you? If so, then it is your chance to show off the quality of your writing. So, my fellow blogger/reviewer, best of luck to you, and have fun! I look forward to reading your review.
UPDATE: The contest winners have been announced. Please see Wow! We have a winner in our Review My Site contest.
Forward this post to a friend.
