Contest promotion

    I've taken the advice from some of the forums and started a contest to attract more visitors to my blog. The details of the contest are listed on my blog and I'd like to attract as many eyes while it is running:

    Are there any sites similar to digg which you can submit a blog story in an attempt to get further exposure for this type of news content?

    Thx,
    Soma

    Technorati
    StumbleUpon
    Reddit
    Sphinn
    Google blog search

    Blogging Zoom and Blog Engage will get you some exposure but not much. Perhaps you can trying opening up a contest thread over at the Blogging section on DP to get some exposure.

    Have you also been pinging your blogs? I use pingoat and pingomatic to automatically ping my blogs when I make an update. It is an easy way to make sure that they crawl your blog after you have updated it.
