Link to Upstart Blogger and win a free iPhone

As part of my traffic building plan outlined yesterday I am offering all bloggers the chance to win a free iPhone. All you have to do is write a blog post linking to Upstart Blogger and leave a comment below with a link back to your blog so that I can see the link. At the end of January I will pick a blogger at random and send them a shiny new iPhone.

No strings, no tricky terms and conditions, no hard work. Just link to Upstart Blogger, leave a comment to let me know about it and you’ll be entered in the draw. Get drawn out of the hat at the end of January and the iPhone is yours.

Good luck!

    Good morning and happy 2008 to you all.

    My post (and link) to UpstartBlogger.

    The post is about the usage of Futurosity Magazine to build Apotropaico Magazine.

    Have a nice day!

    I actually forgot about this, wrote a post linking to Upstart Blogger, then remembered just now.

    Worth throwing my name in the hat, I suppose. I never win anything, so I figure I’m due.

    A handy link.
