Directory Journal June 2010 Contest - Win an iPad, Cash, or free directory listing

Directory Journal just turned THREE! And we want you to celebrate with us. In honor of our third anniversary as one of the Web’s leading directories, we’re giving you a chance to win some great prizes in our June Submission and Twitter “Follow and Retweet” contest. You can win an iPad, $200 cash, and more. Find out more below, and enter our contest today!

The Prizes

5 winners will be chosen for the prizes below:

  • A brand new iPad (for one grand prize winner)*
  • $200 cash deposited into your PayPal account (for one first prize winner)
  • 3 permanent regular listings at DirJournal.com (1 free listing for each of 3 second prize winners)

* The cash value of a new iPad may be substituted for an actual iPad at the discretion of DirJournal.com staff, depending on things like the winner’s location. Cash value prizes require a Paypal account in order for the winners to claim their prize. If the grand prize winner doesn’t want the iPad for any reason, they can also request a cash value prize (but they must also have a Paypal account). The cash value for the iPad prize will be considered $729.

The Rules

There are two ways you enter this contest.

All you have to do to be eligible to win one of these fabulous prizes is to follow @DIRJournal on Twitter, retweet the following message and link to this post:

Don’t forget that you need to do both of these things: follow @DIRJournal and retweet the above message and link no later than June 14th in order to be eligible for the prizes.

How We’ll Determine the Winner

On June 15th we’ll choose 5 winners at random from all qualifying submissions. To keep things fair, we’ll run all eligible entries through Random.org. To avoid any bias, no one will manually choose the winners. The first Twitter ID “drawn” will win the grand prize iPad, the second will win the $200 cash, and so on.

Note: If you follow and Retweet us but then unfollow us before June 15th you will not be eligible for any of the prizes. You must be in our follower list on the 15th when we identify all eligible entries.

Winners will be announced on June 16th on Twitter, and winners will be contacted via DM on Twitter for more information about collecting their prizes.
