Diskon.com is holding Blog Review Competition 2012. This event is a competition for bloggers to review daily deals site Diskon.com. With this competition, Diskon.com is aiming to relive Indonesian blogging world.
Diskon.com Blog Review Competition 2012 opens from April 16, 2012 to July 15, 2012. Winners of first to third position, respectively, will get iPad 2, Samsung Galaxy Ace and Samsung Galaxy Young.
The competition is open for anyone including professional bloggers or writers. In addition to writing openly about Diskon.com, participants must also meet certain other conditions. Among them are placing Diskon.com banner, put up a link to Diskon.com on the blogroll, liking its Facebook Page and follow Diskon.com on Twitter as well as registering to be a Diskon.com member and subscribe for its newsletter. More information can be found on this page. If you are interested to apply, you can visit this page.
Looking at the requirement for this competition, aside from aiming for promotion, Diskon.com also wants to raise the profile of its website on search engines. It’s pretty obvious from the requirement of participants to include links to Diskon.com’s page using specified keywords. With Google’s personalization for individual search result, it appears that Diskon.com is one of those who still believe that search engine optimization is still an important factor.
Diskon.com’s step to appreciate blogger’s creativity and try to re-enliven Indonesian blogging world deserves our respect. In recent years, after the rapid growth of social media like Facebook and Twitter, people’s interest to seemingly had been decreasing. If lured with iPad 2, would these bloggers – who have been in ‘hibernation’ – make an appearance?
