Best way to promote a contest???

[nduff]

I'm having a contest on my blog and I was wondering if anyone had ideas on how to promote it???

Tell people about it!

This is a perfect opportunity: What is the contest? What do I have to do? What do I win?

You must have a blog post detailing the guidelines and rules - Spread it around! Most webmaster forums have contest sections, and social bookmarking sites work too. Offer to guest post in return for a mention of the contest on other blogs. Everyone loves winning free stuff, so get the word out.

I'm trying out a contest on my blog right now too, and promoting it is a little harder than I thought it would be!
