A Contest!

In August, I ran a small contest on my website and ended up with 60 C2 submissions on my page of Homeschool Curriculum Reviews.

I opened the contest to the entire web this September, and ended up with over 350 submissions. I am running a smaller contest each month, and I've published the contest rules here.

I promoted the contest on my blog, on yahoo groups, through the homeschool blog carnival, on several homeschool forums, and by e-mailing publishers to see if their customers would be interested in submitting reviews.

I also created the following promo pages on other websites:

Homeschool Curriculum Reviews
Homeschool Curriculum Reviews

And I added a link to the reviews to these lists:

Best Homeschooling Resources

All in all, the contest was a hit, and I'm planning another large one this spring!
