Blogger sign up for the 2012 Spa for Ma Blog Hop Giveaway with referral rewards

 

Bloggers are needed for the 2012 Spa for Ma Blog Hop Giveaway with referral rewards. It is scheduled to go live at 12:01 am EST on August 17, and end at 11:59 pm EST on August 31.

Blogger Requirements

 
• You must have a family-friendly blog
 
• You must pay the $5 participation fee (non-refundable; pays for the cash grand prize, advertising, and Referral Rewards – read about Referral Rewards below). Payment info is in the sign-up form.

• You must place one of the Spa for Ma buttons or banners (each image's size can be tweaked to fit your blog; ask if you need help) on your sidebar or above the fold at time of sign up and keep it there until the end of the event. The more who know, the more traffic! The button/banner must be visible from the home page of your blog and should not be added to a scrolling widget.
 
• You are responsible for providing a giveaway prize worth a minimum of $50 that will help mom relax. Please, NO prizes for animals (yes, there are moms in the animal kingdom, but this event is for human moms); and NO adult items (please keep it G-rated!). If you're in doubt, please ask.
 
• You are allowed to have a maximum of TWO prizes/prize packs so long as each is worth the $50 minimum.
 
• Join the Facebook group. Link to the group is in the sign-up form; we also ask for your Facebook name so non-participants can't join the group.
 
• You must post all the required info (intro items, links to the host and grand prize sponsors, buttons, disclosure, etc.) in your giveaway post.

Referral Rewards (aka RandR)

Since they're charging a $5 participation fee this year, they are not only able to provide a cash grand prize (which all bloggers can also enter), but they are also able to PAY every participating blogger a Referral Reward (now THAT's my kind of RandR!). If you are participating in this event and you refer another blogger, you receive $1. Refer 5 other bloggers and you'll have earned your fee back. Refer more than that and you're making a profit! Please say Barbara of Barbara's Beat referred you.

Note: If you as a participating blogger drop out of the event, you will not receive your Referral Rewards (it will be added to the cash grand prize instead). This is to prevent people from joining just to gain Referral Rewards then dropping out.

Banners and Buttons

You can find all the Spa for Ma banners and buttons HERE. Even if you're not participation, feel free to share one!
