Refer & Win at JobsDB

Tuesday, October 21, 2008 dfg 1 Comments

This contest is simple enough to do. Just register with JobsDB and refer a friend. Every successful referral gives you an entry! There are a lot of prizes to be given away such as Starbucks GCs, Cash, and Hotel Accommodations lots of prizes means more chances of winning right? As a BONUS to this post, I'm going to teach you a trick on how to maximize your referrals!



Promo Requirements:
  • Participants must be 18 yrs. old and above and must be a holder of a valid Philippine ID Card (Driver’s License, SSS, etc.)
Promo Mechanics:
  1. Register at JobsDB
  2. Submit/upload your resumes
  3. Refer your friends via email
  4. Your friends must submit/upload their resumes for you to get an entry
  5. View complete promo mechanics
Promo Period: September 24 - December 22, 2008

Promo Prize:
  • 1 winner of 3D/2N accommodation at Club Paradise, Palawan or El Rio y Mar Island Resort, Palawan
  • 1 monthly winner (Oct 22, Nov 22, Dec 22) of Cash prize worth P3,000
  • 10 monthly winners of Starbucks GC worth P300

Upside:
  • FREE to do
  • Lots of prizes to be given away
  • I will tell you how to maximize your referral!
    • Did you ever notice the URL/web address of the link Register at JobsDB? If you did then you probably know what I'm about to tell you. If not, then listen well and listen good. This is what you need to do. After completing the steps above, registering and all, go to the referral page and send an email invite to your own email. Yes your own email! Open your email and you will see the referral email from JobsDB. Open that and look for "CLICK HERE TO BE A MEMBER" and click that. You will then be directed to the registration page which looks exactly like the step one above. However, do observe the URL/web address of that link. It should have something like "PN=CreateAccIntro&RID=5F1706687402295B6D3E6473" right after the "asp?" Now compare your "RID=xxxxx..." with mine. Different right? That's because RID stands for "Referral ID," or I think it is. The fact is, that URL is your referral link. So instead of limiting your referrals through your email, you could use that URL to invite other people, even people you don't know, and you would get the same results.
    • How do you apply this? Well you could place the URL/web address in you social networking sites as posts or links. Put it in multiply, facebook or even your blogs. You could use that URL as I have used it here in this blog post. You could even grab the image from the referral page and use it as a banner ad on your sites and link it with your referral URL. Take it to a whole new level by posting it in forums and websites. Just make sure you don't spam and violate any rules!
Downside:
  • "Prizes are non-transferable"

500K Everyday - Smart

Monday, October 20, 2008 dfg 1 Comments

Similar to Globe's Watya Wanna Win, Smart Buddy and Talk 'N Text subscribers can now have a chance to Win 500k Everyday simply by registering and loading up. I'm only a bit confused and concerned over the fact that you may already accumulate entries as you load as early as today when the start where you can win the 500K is on November 8. Does this mean subscribers that has accumulated entires before November 8 get raffled for the November 8 daily draw? Or are the entires of a given period (week 1-5) raffled off in a weekly draw wherein you could be the winner for Wednesday when you loaded up on a Monday? Does it matter? I think so! That's just my take on this promo!

Nikon International Photo Contest

Monday, October 20, 2008 dfg 0 Comments

Nikon calls all professional or amateur photographers for the Nikon Photo Contest International 2008-2009. This year's theme: "At the heart of the image" has 2 categories - "Free subject" and "My Planet". Lots of Nikon camera products are up for grabs for the Winners. In the last 2006-2007 contest, there was no winning photo from the Philippines. I just hope this year, we could show these guys how good Filipinos are in taking winning photographs.



Contest Requirements:
  • Open to all photographers, professional or amateur, from any part of the world
  • "All entrants, particularly minors (those under the age of 18 in many jurisdictions), are responsible for ensuring their submission is in compliance with the legal requirements of their country"
Contest Mechanics:
  1. Theme is: "At the heart of the image" (Freely express the emotions that are true to your heart through images)
  2. 2 categories
    1. Free subject: Works that convey the photographer’s unique perspective and creativity.
    2. My Planet: Works that express your feelings about your world, whether that involves the environment, scenes from your daily life, or people and other things that stir your passions.
      • NOTE: Each entrant may enter two JPEG images into each category
  3. Fill out the online entry form and submit it along with the JPEG images
  4. Entrants will not be notified of receipt of their entries
  5. Image/photo requirements
    • Maximum size per JPEG image: 10MB
      • If the image is larger than the size mentioned above, please compress the file to a maximum of 10MB before submitting
    • File Format: JPEG only
    • sRGB will be applied as the standard color space during the judging process
    • Winners may later be requested to submit JPEG images with higher resolution for winning works, for such purposes as the production of publications and exhibitions related to the contest
  6. View complete contest mechanics
TIP: I just observed from the 2006-2007 contest that some photographs that won weren't really that good but the photo's caption and details were very moving. I guess what I'm trying to say is that the photo's caption/details is vital to winning this photo contest! If you aren't a good writer like me, try asking help from a writer. Believe me, it helps!

Contest Period: September 1 - November 30, 2008

Contest Prize:
  • Grand Prize - most outstanding photograph out of all the entries, regardless of category
  • NIKKOR 75th Anniversary Award - most outstanding photograph displaying an exceptional use of the lens and its functions, regardless of category
  • 1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes - 16 winners in each category
