Christmas blogging contest open

In the spirit of fun, and for the holiday season, The Blog Herald has begun a contest with Christmas in mind.



Of course, The Blog Herald Christmas Blogging Awards has a blogging theme.



Well, what did you expect?



Chestnuts roasting on an open fire?



Well, that might be a winning post too. Who knows!



The award categories are:



Best overall Christmas Blog



Best Christmas decoration of a Blog



Best posting about Christmas on a Blog



Best new blog embracing Christmas



Prizes are being awarded for each Christmas blogging category.



Duncan Riley of The Blog Herald describes the contest this way:

The awards aim to spread cheer in the Blogosphere by encouraging blogs to join in the spirit of Christmas

The Blog Herald is still seeking some sponsors for prizes:

If you’d like to sponsor the awards with a free gift or money to the winners please let me know. Nominations open now and close 23 December 2004 with the winner announced Christmas Eve.

Note that Search Engine Herald has already generously come forward as a prize sponsor.



You can nominate yourself or another deserving blogger:

Nominations can be lodged via the comments on each category. Whilst an real email address is not required, there will be a delay in listing your nomination as manual moderation is required. Including your real email address assures quick nomination.

Anyone who has the spirit of Christmas, and wishes to become a sponsor or an entrant in The Blog Herald Christmas Blogging Awards, should contact The Blog Herald today.



After all, Christmas is just around the corner.
