Contest Update: Donations Flowing Like Hell. As Of Now The Contest Is Worth $1400 Approx

UPDATE: The contest is up and running. Click here to participate.

Just 4 days back I had announced the plan of a contest for my blog and requested my readers to donate stuffs they can and I am shocked with the way donations have come.

Here goes the list of prizes which are confirmed as of today:

45 Minute Consultation From Liz of Successful Blog.
Two ProBlogger Books from Sara of DigitaPrank.
Fast Track submission to MakeUseOf Directory worth $50.
45 Minute Consultation for logo design from David Airey.
50 wiki pages from OneBuckWiki worth $1000.
Unique logo design from Recruit developer offshore which owes the logo company LogoAngel. The price of this logo design is $199.
Registered copy of premium theme worth $100 from Adii.
Two unique logo designs with one revision each from FashDesigns.
Registered copy of a yet-to-be-designed premium theme from Fab Flake.
One premium support email or IM session with remote support from Ask The Admin worth $75.
$50 bid on attractive bidding directory.
168 Entrecard credits for three different winners from Mike of Bloggin-Ads.
500 Entrecard credits plus 125×125 ad spot for two months from Darren of 1 Man & His Blog.
6 Months Medium Web Hosting Account from HostBrains.
125×125 ad spot for two months from Techno Life.
125×125 ad spot for one month from Contestime.
125×125 ad spot for one month from GorillaSushi.

The expected contest duration will be from 21st April to 31st of May. I will be busy with my exams during this time so I think a juicy contest will be enough to keep the readers intact. Although the necessary tech posts (already written and timestamped) will keep flowing in like before.

What You can donate?

Literally anything! Be it cash, free service, review in your blog, some advertisements in your blog or whatever that will attract my readers to your blog once I mention about you and your prize in my contest posts (they are going to be many posts so you get many back links.)

What you earn?

This blog is PageRank 3 so you get PR3 back links.
A review to each blog which made a donation.
Back links from all the other contest posts which will be about informing my readers as to how the contest is going.
After the contest ends and people win different stuffs then I will interview each winner on my blog and this way you earn one more positive review on my blog from that winner.
A link ad in my feed footer for the time period till the contest runs (that might be around 45 days.)

You still have around 8 days before the contest starts. Take your time and shoot your donations. Believe me all of us are going to gain good amount of links+publicity from the contest. Your donations will make this contest more attractive so let them flow..

And do remember to subscribe to my blog feeds so that you are up to date with the contest happenings.

UPDATE (13th April) : Two more juicy donations added to the list above.
