Where Can I Find Video Contests?

ByNalts

Two sites that feature online-video contests:

  1. Vidopps (5 stars: kept current as of this writing- can sign up for e-mail alerts)
  2. Online-video Contests (4 stars: pretty but not as comprehensive- can sign up for e-mail alerts)
  3. YouTube contests (3 stars: not enough)
  4. XLNTads (too new to rate, and I’m biased since they sponsor me)
  5. About.com Desktop Video (1 star: dated and annoying auto-roll ads)

When you enter, don’t forget to try these techniques to increase your chance of winning.

Bigelow Tea Putting Face to Brand… But Nobody Will See It

ByNalts

Chris Brogan uses this Bigelow Tea example (see video below) of how to “put a face to a brand.” He’s right..
