Start one NOW and submit it for the competition!!!

Closing Date: 16th February 2009 (Monday), 5.00pm

Tips

1) EXPOSE YOUR BEST CONTENT
Exposing your best content will enable people that come to the competition to see that you can
actually blog. Exposing your best content in a blog competition will also enable you to get extra
readers for your blog.

2) LINK BACK TO THE COMPETITION
Only a link will do
You should also ask for a link back to the post of those that enter the blog competition. That will
increase other bloggers to send you more visitors from their blogs

3) MAKE IT BETTER THAN OTHERS
Don’t make your class blog competition boring. Offer something different or something
that people actually want.

Objectives

1. The various classes from the same level will compete with one another to see whose class blog
is the most vibrant and “happening” in Ping Yi.

2. To interconnect students from the same class as well as other classes.
