Handmadeology Team Challenge

[#1]

Hey Guys!

Thanks to Cristalee fo finding this, I have entered our team into the Handmadeology Team Challenge. Our team will be designated a list where we all add our items and then share it on social media sites. We have the opportunity to win $450 worth of advertising from Handmadeology including a 3 month ad space right on every page of the blog, a spotlight feature article, Twitter blasts, Facebook shares and a 'backlink building backage'. Handmadeology is a pretty large site so needless to say the amount of people we could be viewed by would be impressive.

The winner is determined by:
1. The largest number of votes at the end of the challenge
2. The largest number of items added to a list.
3. The greatest number of times a teams list is promoted across the web.

So once the list is created we all need to add our items, then share it as much as we can on facebook, twitter, blogs, stumbleupon and any and all other social media places we use.

I think it's a great opportunity for the team and its member and if I can get some work on the team blog done we can share it on there too.

The site goes live on Wednesday so if people are interested in fighting the good fight let me know and we can share the word about Posh Nursery!

Annie,

Change your tag Posh Nursery to teamposhnursery and it should let you add your items.

[Former_Member]

Annie I can add the for you no problem but as Christalee says your items need to have the tag teamposhnursery.

Thanks!

I tried simply DELETING *teamposhnursery* from the train collage but then it DELETED the entire team and all its listings :( --- UGH! That's not good so I put it back .... if Tim doesn't delete it that's OK :)

[Former_Member]

...my shop is on vacaton :(
can i still add my items? i guess not....

[Former_Member]

when do we have to have our items added by?
i may come off vaction mode tonight...

[Former_Member]

Jaimie the challenge runs for two weeks and we can post our items any time throughout that, obviously the sooner we post the better though.

[Former_Member]

I submitted a picture of an owl! I loved eveyone's submissions so far, how fun!

[aboundingtreasures]

Is anyone else having troubles getting past the first *group* of items to vote on?

Each time I try voting, I get just up to the 1st AD that is supposed to appear - nothing at all appears and it won't progress forward at all.

I tried exiting and clicking on the group's list again and still nothing even after several tries!!

Wonder what's wrong?

[Former_Member]

I'm new to this team, and just found out about this cool challenge :).I'm in,off to tagging and downloading :)
and btw...Hi to all the members :).Glad to be here.

[Former_Member]

Dallas if you could convo handmadeologybiz and tell Tim your problem he is pretty good at getting things sorted. We dont want anything affecting voting!

[Former_Member]

Okay - just posted on our FB page!! Can we vote as many times as we want or will it only register once?

[Former_Member]

I'm assuming that it would register just one voter per person per item. I'll be sharing somtime today on my facebook page.

I love seeing all the wonderful items!

[Former_Member]

The items are looking great and we have a really good amount of votes - 1407 which is a massive increase from just a few hours ago! Great job everyone! Keep up the sharing and dont forget to post on all social media's if you can! The more people vote and like the better!

Anyone who hasnt listed your items be sure to do so asap!

Just bumping this up for the new members to see.

[Former_Member]

Having some trouble listing my items. Will keep trying to see if I can get it figured out though.

[Former_Member]

Hey Moxie

Make sure your items are tagged teamposhnursery - I did notice there was a typo in one of your tags, so I'm not sure if thats the problem. Hope you get your items up.

[Former_Member]

We are at 3010 votes everyone, great job! Keep sharing the link as many times as you can to make sure we keep our vote count up. Hope you've all had a lovely saturday!

[Former_Member]

Holly,

Thanks for pointing out the typo. I had copied and pasted from the team tag on this thread and didn't even notice. Going to try and add them again.

[Former_Member]

Got it!
