Girls Toys Blog - Twitter Competition Offer
I came across the Girls Toys site by following a Retweet on Twitter. Just to set you straight (incase your mind has wandered over the name) the Girls Toys site is a lifestyle Blog where they review products, services and web sites for modern mothers including eco-living, health, fashion and gadgets.
The Retweet was pointing people to the Girls Toys Blog to win an Ecostore pack of goodies. I was very interested because I use the Ecostore products myself. And besides freebies are exactly what a mother needs and every little bit helps!
Ecostore Prizepack
There were three ways of entering to win the Ecostore product giveaways. As a minimum requirement all you had to do was the 1st step, and then you could receive a second and third entry by following steps 2 and 3 below:
(1) Signup to their newsletter
(2) Follow them on Twitter and tweet about the contest.
(3) Join the Girlstoys Blog Network on Facebook and leave a comment there to let them know that you’ve joined.
I liked the way they make you step through a few painless social networking signups in order to get entries into the competition. Yes, the newsletter signup was simple, as is joining the Facebook group and it only takes a few seconds to send a Retweet on Twitter. I honestly cannot remember the last time when entering a competition was so easy.
Twitter Buzz
The benefits of them posting the competition link on Twitter sends people to their Blog and getting people to Retweet the giveaway gets their Twitter username more exposure as more people enter. To top it off they also get more followers on Twitter.
