I think it’s fair to say that we’ve always been among the ugly ducklings of web sites. We’ve been ok with that, though.

“It’s what’s on the inside that’s important,” we kept telling ourselves.

Sure, we had seemingly random bits of information strewn around in various places, a colour-scheme that might best be described as “meh”, and sidebar sections that seemed to stretch on for miles with only one or two words per line. Maybe “ugly” isn’t the right word, though. Perhaps “hap-hazard” is better. Either way, we didn’t worry about it too much because the site was functional and people kept coming back day after day.

And we’ve been pretty good at keeping a loyal audience over the 5+ years that we’ve been doing this. Our readers want new contests to enter every day, and we’ve been delivering them. Seven days a week. Fifty-two weeks per year. Even weekends and holidays don’t slow us down.

As long as people keep coming to the site, who cares what we look like?

Well, I guess we do. The truth is that first impressions mean a lot, and when someone came across our site from a Google search, we were not likely to impress them with the look that we had. Sure, if they took the time to look around and see how many contests we have and how valuable the visitor comments are, they’d likely come back, but there would be fairly sizable group of people that would take one look at our home page and move on. We want to reduce the size of that group.

So, after days of slaving away in the basement office, we have emerged with a new look! It’s still a work-in-progress, so there will continue to be changes, but we’re already pretty pleased with the difference. The updates also open the door for some more changes that we’ll be introducing in the next few weeks.

The site’s functionality should still be the same as what you’re used to, other than the fact that a few things like the Categories list and Recent Comments have moved to new locations. We moved the Recent Comments section to the bottom of the page because it takes up a lot of space and doesn’t really fit in the sidebar. What do you think of this? Do you often look at the Recent Comments? Should it be more prominent?

And, overall, what do you think? Have we gone from ugly duckling to swan? Or at least from ugly duckling to ugly duckling with a cute smile?

Please feel free to let us know in the comments.

Advertising on ContestCanada.net

“We have had amazing response from our ads on your website, we are thrilled!”
– Carrie C from a national furniture and electronics chain.

“You guys have great reach!”
– Stephen B from FeelGreatHealth.com

“Out of the ten sites that I’ve tried, so far yours is performing best!”
– J G from a jewelry boutique.

“I’ve been very happy with the hits I’ve been getting from you! In fact, they’re higher than any other sites I’m currently using to promote my contest.”
– Mike from GearHungry.com

If you’re promoting a contest, we’d love to help!

We’re not the fanciest site in the country, but we have a very simple thing that works in our favour: we can generate more traffic for you than any other Canadian contest site. You want visitors, and we can send them your way.

Listed below are our advertising methods. If you have any questions or want to do something that doesn’t quite fit with one of these methods, please feel free to contact us. We’ll get back to you ASAP, and we’d be happy to work with you to find a solution.

Featured Posts

A featured post looks very similar to other contests that we post on our site, but it stays at the top of our home page (guaranteed to be in the top 3 slots) to ensure that every visitor sees it. Other contests scroll to the bottom of the page as new contests are added. Our current rates:

Number of Days Cost
1 $35
2 $65
3 $90

It’s a very popular, inexpensive way of advertising, and will typically generate 500 clicks in a 24-hour period. Some contests get over 1000 clicks. Your contest is also included in our daily email, which has a distribution of over 3,000 people. To request a Featured Post, please use our “Suggest a Contest” form or contact us.

Banner Advertising

We sell banner advertising in blocks of 25,000 impressions. Our current rates are:
468 x 60 : 25,000 impressions : $40
120 x 600 : 25,000 impressions : $70

The 120×600 is near the top-right corner of every page. The 468×60 units are in between contest posts on any page that shows a list of posts (like the home page, searches, or any of the category lists), and also on the page that is displayed whenever a visitor views a single contest.

To arrange banner advertising, please contact us.

Sample Advertising

In the screen shot below, there are two Featured Posts (“Win 1 of 8 La Senza gift cards” and “Win $500 store credit for Orro Mosaic”). Regular posts follow the Featured Posts and don’t have the pink background.

The recent Canadian election has got us in a very democratic mood here at www.contestcanada.net. In particular, the issue that has been discussed a couple of times in the past few weeks is the handling of blog contests. In the past, we included them along with regular contests on the main page, but then we separated them onto their own page. The ongoing feedback we’ve been getting is that it would also be good to have an icon or button that clearly indicates that a particular listing is for a blog contest.

And so, after several minutes slaving over an on-line button-generator, this is what we came up with: Blog Contest button

You’ll see this button on the site and in the newsletter each day, next to the little flags for Canada and the US.

Another thing that we’ve been hearing quite a bit lately is that some folks really don’t like the contests where you have to submit a photo or essay and then get your friends to vote for you. There are more and more of these in recent times as companies jump on the social media bandwagon. Sometimes these contests have pretty amazing prizes, so we definitely want to continue listing them. As John pointed out in a recent comment, “Sometimes the contests that require a little effort mean that the odds are that much better!”

So, in an effort to please everyone, we’ve added a button to clearly identify this type of contest: Votes Required

And, lastly, because some people don’t like Facebook contests, we’ve added a button for that too. This is usually (but not always) pretty obvious from the contest URL, but an extra visual indicator can’t hurt: Facebook contest

One last thing on the subject of Blog Contests: My Little Review Corner has a new entry in a series of posts meant to explain the ins and outs of blog contests. This one is about Tweeting. Check it out.

Hopefully you’ll find the new buttons to be helpful. If you have suggestions on how this could be improved, please feel free to comment below. Or if you’d rather not make a public comment, you can also send a message through our contact form.
