Blogosaur Contest Winners

Saturday, July 17th, 2010

It’s been a week since we started the Blogosaur Contest and the votes are in! It was a tough, close competition all week long and I can’t thank all of you enough for voting. But the honor truly goes to ALL of the Blogosaurs. Just to get on the list on blogs to vote for is an accomplishment all by itself. Blogging is tough work, and many who start out quickly abandon it and give up. Every blog on our blogroll is remarkable for the effort and time that has been put into it, and as Webosaurs continues to grow we wan’t to share that success with all of you.

For this competition though… the dancing queen herself, Melly, took the overall most votes for Melly’s Webosaurs Blog. She’ll be giving away a one month membership and also won a pack of ten coin codes for use with contests. The rest of the winning top 5 also won a pack of ten coin codes to give away on their blogs. Be sure to check them out and see what they’ll be doing to give back to you, the loyal readers and Webosaurs fans.

Melly’s Webosaurs Blog is easily one of the top Webosaurs blogs out there. It’s updated daily with the freshest news, rumors, sneak peeks and cheats/hints to the Island. Not only does the blog feature great content daily, but also home to a number of guides that are crucial to any new dino getting started on Webosaurs. The writing and production is always top of the line!

Webosaurs Dojo is another big up and comer in the Webosaurs blog field. Longtime dinos Destructor and ZigZag hold it down in this Dojo of great news and information. The blog is as hilarious as it is informative, including an AWESOME gallery of funny Webosaurs pictures. The site is very well made, and even shows off the Webosaurs rules which of course we love!

The Webosaurs Crew was created and run by stellar dinos Afootball and LDude. Long time dudeosaurs on the scene, The Webosaurs Crew is the place for you and your friends to hang and check the latest on Webosaurs Island. Really impressed with the creativity and diversity of posts on The Webosaurs Crew. Recently, for instance, Afootball posted a hilarious interview with Cowasaurus.

Rahuu is one of the fiercest investigative reporters on Webosaurs. Rahuu will keep you constantly updated with the latest updates on the testing site, as well as other news and events happening on the Island. Rahuu’s Webosaurs Blog was also one of the first to expose the Barkely the Broccoli prank recently pulled off by Rex and some other Blogosaurs. The site also features a number of helpful guides, and some funny pics as well!

Dukster has put a ton of work into his blog, and now its risen as one of the best blogs on the blogroll! Dukster’s Webosaurs Blog features a variety of great information for his readers. You can also find some awesome interviews, moar funny pics and my personal favorite, a page with storied written by Dukster! Check out this awesome blog for all these great things and keep an eye out for upcoming contests.

New badge highlighted in yellow

Hey gang! We’re happy to introduce a brand new program for all of you awesome bloggers on the island. It’s called the Blogosaurs! We want to reward all of the effort you’ve put into your blogs and raise the bar for those that want to follow in your path. The Blogosaur badge is for dinos that have proven their hard work with a well maintained Webosaurs blog!

Perks of being a Blogosaur:

* Have your blog featured on the blogroll

* Awesome Blogosaur badge for your player profile

* Gain access to a special testing site where you will be able to try out new features and give us feedback before they come out!

Requirements for becoming a Blogosaur:

**Blog Owners**

1) Have had your blog active for at least 1 month

2) Continue to post at least once a week

3) Link to www.webosaurs.com somewhere on the main page (a widget counts)

**Blog Authors**

1) Have been posting on another player’s blog for at least 1 month

2) Continue to post at least twice a week

Blogroll

From now on, all blogs featured on the blogroll will be Blogosaur blogs. We are so lucky to have as many awesome bloggers as we do, and we want to make sure that those putting in the most work get recognition for their efforts. We’ll start making this change a week from now to give everyone enough time to submit their application.

Testing Site

This is not active yet, but we will let you know once it is fully set up and ready to go. Blogosaurs will be able to come into the testing site and try out new features before we release them to the rest of the Island. You’re input and feedback will help us to make the new updates into exactly what you need. Although screenshots will not be allowed from the testing site, you will be free to write about the things you are testing out.

New Blogs

Did you end up making a new blog? Have you worked on another blog but now you write for a new one instead? As long as you can prove you’ve met the requirements we will still hook you up with a Blogosaur badge.

——-

Sound good? You’ll need to apply to become a Blogosaur. Post your Webosaurs username and the URL to your blog as a comment on this post. Please indicate whether you are a blog owner or an author. Any extra proof that you meet these requirements will help us award the badge to you sooner. In order to keep your badge you must stay consistent with these requirements (although we do understand if you have to take some occasional time off, of course. That’s what extra authors are for!).

Please understand that it will take a few days to go over all of the applications and check to make sure that you meet the requirements. We’ll start giving out badges as soon as possible.
