Thanks again everyone for all your great comments… we really do appreciate them and you!

As you know we changed up the rules last month from the month before to give more people an opportunity to win. Well this worked out well, but there was quite a bit of a drop in commenting from the month before, which is okay, but we would like to see if we can get it back up a little this month.

So we have decided to make just one small adjustment to last month’s rules. To qualify to get your name put in the raffle it will still only take 5 comments for the entire month to get you an entry. But now you can earn additional enteries to increase your odds of winning. For every 5 comments you leave, you will get one entry into the raffle. So if you leave 5 comments you would get one entry… but if you leave 25 comments for the month you would receive 5 entries. Makes sense to everyone? Here are the official rules below…

*RULES: The rules are very simple. On the last day of each month we will pull 2 names out of a hat and the winners will each win 1 FREE month of banner space in our designated area. We reserve the right to refuse anyone and any banners that we do not feel are appropriate for this site. To qualify to get your name in the drawing all you have to do is submit at least 5 comments throughout the entire month. You can earn additional entries with every 5 comments that you leave. If you leave 10 comments you would receive 2 entries. If you left 15 comments you would receive 3 entries, and so on… So you will need to comment at least once on 5 different posts to qualify. For a comment to count, it does not have to be long, but it does have to be useful to us and/or our readers. Just writing, “Great Post! Keep up the good work” will not count as a comment towards winning the contest. We need to know that you actually read the post. Mark and I will have the final say on what we feel is a comment.

If you have any questions, please let us know. Again, congratulations to September’s two winners, Dan from TycoonBlogger.com and Benjamin from BenjaminCip.com.

I am sure everyone has been having a hard time sleeping these last few days wondering who was going to win those two premium banner ad spots in our sidebar. Well your wait is finally over.

We want to thank everyone who has commented on Making Money Online Dot Com! You definitely make writing posts much more rewarding.

Even though the contest was a tremendous success (as you can tell by the number of comments we received), we have decided to change it up in a BIG WAY. We thought long and hard about it and we just don’t want to force people to have to leave a bunch of comments to win a contest.

We are still going to run a Comment Contest, but instead of the winners being the two people who leave the most comments, we are going to have a raffle at the end of each month and pull 2 names out of a hat. The prizes have not changed… we will be giving away one month of free 125×125 banners ad space to 2 winners in our sidebar in the designated area.

*RULES: The rules are very simple. On the last day of each month we will pull 2 names out of a hat and the winners will each win 1 FREE month of banner space in our designated area. We reserve the right to refuse anyone and any banners that we do not feel are appropriate for this site. To qualify to get your name in the drawing all you have to do is submit at least 5 comments throughout the entire month and we only count one comment per post. So you will need to comment at least once on 5 different posts to qualify. For a comment to count, it does not have to be long, but it does have to be useful to us and/or our readers. Just writing, “Great Post! Keep up the good work” will not count as a comment towards winning the contest. We need to know that you actually read the post. Mark and I will have the final say on what we feel is a comment.

If you have any questions, please let us know. Also, you do not need to limit your comments to 5 throughout the month. We just want to give more people an opportunity to win, so we are making it easier for everyone to qualify.

Again, congratulations to last month’s two winners, Sire from WassUpBlog.com, and Lee from MyBlog2Day.com.
