A Lijit Storytelling Contest
We’ve decided it’s time for a mid-summer contest. Nothing complicated–we just want to hear your Lijit story. To reward your efforts, the best storyteller will win a Kindle and ALL submissions will get a super-comfy Lijit t-shirt.
What should you write about? Absolutely anything having to do with Lijit.
Your contest entry could be about how you found out about Lijit…
“I landed in Nashville for the BlissDom09 conference. It had been a REALLY long flight day for me. The last leg of my trip was out of Denver, and I picked up my luggage and searched for the hotel’s shuttle van…
We talked a bit and I learned that she was representing Lijit, one of the sponsors for the event! (Sorry, I didn’t have the sponsors memorized.) Her name was Tara and I was feeling lucky to have met her like that, one on one, ridin’ in the van…”
–From Carissa at GoodNCrazy
Or simply what you like best about our service…
“This isn’t even the coolest part of Lijit, though, IMHO. Instead, in my mind, the most interesting feature is the “Research” feature. After you’ve searched for a specific term or after you reach TOCWOC through a search engine, the Lijit widget shows a Research area which gives you other possible posts or pages from TOCWOC and from the entire Civil War blogosphere!”
–From Brett at TOCWOC
Of course, you could be like Louis Gray and write a post that explains our service better than we do…
“Google’s goal in life is to find the one right answer that is true for everyone. Search for iPhone, and you should get the same answer I do at the top of the results, blanketed by potentially relevant ads from the company’s partners. Lijit’s goal in life is to find the one answer that is most accurate, depending on where you are searching. Search for iPhone on my blog, and you will find the most relevant responses that come from my blog and my content from around the Web, including Flickr, Twitter, Delicious, YouTube and other social sites. Search for iPhone on Steven Hodson’s blog (also using Lijit), and you should get a different set of responses based on his activity.”
–From the blog of Louis Gray
Then, like Louis, you can turn your babies into little Lijit evangelists as well…
(But that’s not necessary to win the contest.)
To enter the contest:
- Simply post your Lijit story on your blog.
- Link back to us here.
- Leave a comment on this post with a link to your entry to insure we don’t miss your post.
You have thirty days and we will pick the winner with the help of everyone around our office. To answer potential questions, Lijit employees and their families are not eligible to win. (Lenora and Walter, I’m talking to you two!) Also, if you have posted something about Lijit in the past, feel free to republish your older post and we’ll consider it a valid entry.
In addition to the Kindle, you’ll also be featured on our blog, our homepage and receive our undying love & devotion.
Seems easy enough, right? Have fun and we look forward to seeing what you come up with!
