Yahoo! encourages web businesses to Think Big!
Yeah, yeah... I know it's been too long since I've last written here. Sorry, but I've been busy !
A quick hit today that is time sensitive. I'll try to catch up on all of the other goodies over the next week or so.
Yahoo! has partnered with Richard Branson of Virgin (Records/Airlines) fame in a new contest.
They announced a contest on April 28th to give away 10 million ad impressions across their network to one lucky entrepreneur or small business. The deadline for submissions is May 20th, so if you're interested make up your mind fast !
The rules/criteria for entrants are here and there are several, including the business must be US-based, can't be "seasonal" and must be able to conduct their business from Times Square (or similar location) for a day, can't display any ads from Yahoo! competitors (ie Adsense), etc.
Read 'em all to make sure you qualify.
If you've ever wanted oodles and gobs of free publicity for your site this is just the ticket! So you'd better enter quick. The deadline is fast approaching, and it looks like they're going to name the winner pretty quickly too since the rules state that you have to be able to travel in the June 12-16 time frame.
