So my Amazon Giveaway ended with only 1 copy of my eBook having been won. As a result, I was able to download a unique giveaway code for each of the other four.

On Wednesday I will be launching another giveaway, directly run through my website, using "Rewards Fuel" and the giveaway codes as prizes.

Rewards Fuel allows me to use an "Action Entry" - basically they are directed, via the contest interface, to a page where they sign up for my email newsletter. They are only entered if they click on the confirmation link sent to the email address and land on the confirmation success page on my website.

If you are curious about how it looks/work you can view it here: http://wp.me/p5iXpI-5b
This is NOT a solicitation to enter. :)

So, I'm hoping this will generate tangible results for me.

And apologies to anyone who follows me on Twitter because I will be tweeting the snot out of it the next few days.

Interesting. Is this similar to Rafflecopter? I tried a few giveaways with them and wasn't jazzed, but I'm always looking for something new!

I suppose it's similar, I haven't ever tried Rafflecopter. I chose Rewards Fuel because it integrates with Word Press real easy.

Rewards Fuel does allow for multiple entry points, like Raffelcopter, but I can't speak on other similarities.

I just went with the first one I saw that has what I wanted.

Easily confused with Fuel Rewards, so don't be surprised when grocery shoppers can't figure out why you aren't saving them 10¢ on gas. ;P
