		<description>Yes it's sort of a chicken and egg scenario.  Contests are great for exposure, but you need to get the word out.  Though contests that give away free stuff usually aren't too hard to promote.  The trick is getting anyone to remain interested in your blog post-contest...</description>

		<description>There are tons of evil motives behind this Matt.  You just need to look for them.  It's just very helpful that John's evil happens to help his evil followers often enough (e.g. Technorati boost)  :twisted:</description>

		<description>I think a lot of contests do not get much coverage and thats why so many go by unseen.

I am currently running a contest &lt;a href="http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=254827" rel="nofollow"&gt;blog your socks off&lt;/a&gt; which ends 10th March. I was surprised how little interset people have had entering it.</description>
