Online Competition Tips...

When it comes to competitions, the general rule of thumb is you need to improve your chances. If a competition has 1000 entries, you have a 1/1000 chance which would mean one would have to enter 1000 competitions to win. Everyone sees a competition and many assume that since so many people are entering they have no chance of winning, however some competitions actually have very few entrants and as explained above you need to enter many. It's a bit like applying for a job, the more you send your CV out the great the chance of success. The benefit with online competitions is the possibility of entering for free. There's no need to pay for a stamp, simply fill in ...  Read the complete review

I've been entering competitions since I was old enough to be able to, from the lottery to quiz prizedraws, I've entered them all and as far as I can see the only site on the net where you have a great chance of winning, is Jackpotjoy. This is a site where you can play card games, casino games, bet on the horses and play bingo. I love bingo and have been playing and winning too. So, from my experience it's the only site that you can win and get paid within days. I have won the Jackpot and cleared my credit card debts this year. I've been a member of Jackpotjoy for over a year and when I first joined I only played for points. These points are shown in ...  Read the complete review

Regardless of how you come to comping, which is what we compers call the process of entering competitions, you'll find that it's an absorbing hobby that you can enjoy for very little money, but which offers some great rewards.

I enter a lot of online competitions but it's only in the past four months since I've been running my own website that I've realised just how dense the British Public can be. Hello...(taps monitor screen for attention)...yes, I'm talking about you, Mr or Mrs Competition entrant! My website, Phoenix Book Reviews, runs three or more competitions every month. Why? Well obviously because I'm an altruistic, kind-hearted and exceedingly generous sort of person - NOT! I run competitions to attract visitors to my site. They're genuine competitions with real prizes on offer - yet, month after month, I'm perpetually surprised by the total ...  Read the complete review

I guess I’ve always been into ‘get rich quick schemes’. As a kid I was always conning my parents, uncles, aunts and grandparents into giving me money. Presenting them with paintings and clay sculptures then holding out my hand for a gratuity, demanding they buy my home-made stamps for Christmas cards, even building priceless items of ‘modern art’ out of Lego, then charging a pound for them before they were broken apart to make something else which I could sell back to them – for a small price. By secondary school however, I thought the days of money for nothing were well and truly gone. Everyone just accepts that in this day and age ...  Read the complete review
