What makes a Random contest?
A Random Contest is where the winner is chosen randomly.
For
the subject line, try to use something short, if it's a well known
company/brand, just say their name and contest. Example: "Kellogs
Contest", if it's a photo or story contest, just add that into it to
help with the description.
Try to put the location restriction in
the title as well. Example *USA Only*, *Canada and UK Only*. Use the
asterisks for this portion. And last, but not least, when the entry
period ends. Be careful with "promotion periods" they might say they run til April,
but the time to actually enter it could have ended in March.
Now for the body of the post.
Include the link, you can usually copy and paste any info you find,
always check the Official Rules, just to make sure it's right though.
The main things to post are the link, area restrictions again, age
limit, and the prizes.
You can use this guide for your posts if
you want to make it easier to organize and get all the information. You
may include more info if you want.
