Are mommy blogs safe for advertising? You know the ones where you send a sample of your product and then have a giveaway for readers?
I've seen some from the states, but I haven't found one in Canada yet!
Any suggestions?

I don't know of any but I'd be interested. I'll watch this thread.

There's a ton of giveaway sites out there. I am frequently asked to do giveaways and honestly they bring some traffic but not a lot of sales which in a way is ok too. It is great advertising and doesn't cost that much relatively speaking.
I would like to do regular giveaways on icraftgifts.com and it will be a lot easier once more people start using the blog function. I have started blogging on icraft and it has brought some HUGE traffic. I like this idea better because it should be us benifitting from the traffic rather than the giveaway host.
What do you think about organizing a giveaway on icraft? It can be promoted on our blog, personal blogs, giveaway sites (places that promote giveaways) twitter and facebook.
Love to hear some feedback about this.
Christine

I like the idea of doing a giveaway on icraft, but I'm afraid that people will just sucked into the giveaway and then no one is really buying anything...
Are you saying that from blogging here, it has brought more traffic to your own store, or icraft in general?
I think that everyone deserves their 15 mins of fame, and maybe doing a giveaway for people who want it would be a great idea. I would certainly do it! I'm not sure if I'd want to blog it here, cuz I'm very new to blogging.. but if I have pointers, I guess I could give it a try...

Giveaways and Blogging.... After bootcamp maybe a number of us can give a giveaway a try. Blogging on icraft is super simple!
And blogging has brought traffic to my store. I checked my Google Analytics and on the one blog post I had over 1000 views to the post and remarkably increased to my store. It was amazing but I was pretty lucky to have some of my designer buddies helping drive traffic too.
Cheers
Christine
