    Hello DP Members,

    Here's an interesting article about creating successful social media contests. Most of us here look for followers/likes etc. A good social media contest can bring in tons of new visitors, build excitement among your existing user base and create buzz in the industry as a whole.

    Here's the link to the article - http://bit.ly/s3YmXV

    Also readers and fellow members are requested to share their tips and tactics as well as their experiences if they have ran any contest on any social networking site. Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for sharing this nice article. It is easy to overlook the legal and the cheaters side of running contests and those may be two items that need extra special attention. Also, the prize does need to be enticing or your contest may get lost to more alluring contests with better prize offerings.
