		<description>Hi Shikha, 

Mark is not very likely to see your question so I&#039;m answering. Just find a contest and carefully read the directions. If you have questions ask the people holding the contest. Every contest is different.</description>

		<description>You will probably benefit more from participating in an established big contest that has cash prizes and heavy promotion rather than trying to get a contest off the ground yourself. 

If you do want a contest to fly, having major prizes really helps - and cash is the best major prize because everyone can use it.</description>

		<description>A google search on blogging contests led me to this post. I&#039;m thinking of hosting a contest on my blog to get more traffic, but maybe entering other blogs&#039; contests would be more beneficial for me. Also thinking about what InternetStrategist said about other&#039;s contests more likely to pan out than my own!</description>

		<description>@Mark Thank you for taking the time to comment. Based on my experience and that of other blogs I frequent participating in other&#039;s contests is a lot more likely to pan out than launching your own!

		<description>I&#039;ve participated in and held more blogging contests than I care to remember. Won a few hundred dollars in total, and given away a few hundred. The experience is always rewarding, and there is always something to be learned by the process if you just take the time and effort.
