How well would a full website design contest work?

    This question is mainly directed at the designers here at DP, and also the guys who have already run contests similar to what I'll be asking about.

    How well do you think a contest would work for a single webpage design? I was thinking of running a $75 contest. This is generally the average price I get offers for. Would this be enough incentive to get a good handful of entries, or would I be wasting my time? If you think I would be wasting my time, what do you think it would take to get some decent entries?

    Any and all comments are welcomed. Thanks!

    For a decent amount of quality entries, no less than $100 for an uncoded PSD design. For the really good designs/designers you should be paying $200+ for the PSD. This is still cheap, but it's what they go for on here.

    Thanks for your reply. I wouldn't mind paying $100 at all. $200 seems a little high for the types of sites that I would be looking for, but I assume that would depend on the quality. The sites I'm currently having built are generally not too complex which is why I thought maybe $75 would be a good starting point, but like I said, $100 wouldn't be too bad either.
