That is how easy it is for you to help me win this little competition with Shannon. But seriously here are the ‘five w’s’ that will tell you all about whats going on!

  • Who?
    Well that’s an easy one! This is a contest between two blogs, StandOutBlogger.com and InfectedByBugs.com.Head to Head.
  • What?
    Ok you know it’s a challenge, but what exactly is the workings of the contest? Well simply put, it’s a 2 week contest starting today where we both have to try and increase our RSS feed count the most. (Shannon has almost 3 times the amount of subscribers as me so help a brother out and subscribe to StandOutBlogger :D )
  • Where?
    Right here! Haha…where did you expect?
  • When?
    Right now, til the 20th of October! 2 weeks to be exact.
  • Why?
    Because we can! And because we both think we have what it takes to beat each other, and have put our money (well not literally) where our mouths are and the losing blogger has to write a scripted video blog written by the winner that will absolutely HUMILIATE the loser! Now this isn’t going to be a wussy humiliation video like the one Gyutae made Tyler read in their contest. Expect all the stops to come out when the winner is announced. (So subscribe to make sure you don’t miss it!)

Well thats pretty much the extend of it all, and I really need your help so that I can win! So if you have visited here for the first time, or you come back everyday but just havnt subscribed I would really appreciate your vote of support!

Plus if you have any ideas on how I can totally inihilate Shannon in this contest, I am all ears :D

  13. @Shannon: hehe, didn’t want to start a fight mate, no need to be disrespectful. It’s just your blog was showing 550 subscribers yesterday and now a day later it’s 611 with not much comments on the posts.

    That was just weird to me, but if you say it’s all real, that’s fine with me buddy!

    Dollar Dude – Thanks for subsribing! And I appreciate the extra effort.

    Jack – Thanks a lot!

    Harish – That would be fantastic!

    Ben – I got a big of a shock myself to wak up and see my competitor had already gained 50 new readers! But in all honestly I gained 26 new readers overnight which is fantastic as well! The best news is ‘I FINALLY CRACKED 200!’ So thanks everyone for their help!

    Shannon – Wait till I pull out all the stocks :D I’m not giving up yet!
