Calling all Blogger and other non-Wordpress Users!
Here’s your chance to win a 2-Year Hosting Service at SiteGround.com, a Domain Name of your choice to go with your new blog (subject to availability), and a Block Magazine Wordpress Theme designed by Wordpress Rockstar Adii.
That’s not all. If you are new to Wordpress, I will help you move your blog from Blogger to Wordpress, help you set up Wordpress and the necessary plug-ins, and help you install your Block Magazine Wordpress theme. I will also assist you in the first month of your blogging until you get used to Wordpress. I will then interview you about your Wordpress experience, review your blog and post it here at Blogging Mix.
SiteGround Hosting Services
Blogging Mix has been hosted by SiteGround and so far I’m satisfied with their services. For that reason, I have choosen SiteGround Hosting Service as the major prize. SiteGround also offers one of the most competitive hosting services at affordable prices. Here’s a list of what you get from hosting your blog at SiteGround.
- 750 GB Webspace.
- 7,500 GB Monthly Bandwidth
- Free Domain Name
- Free Site Builder
- 99.9% Server Uptime
- Immediate Action Activation
Check the complete list of hosting features provided by SiteGround for more information.
Block Magazine Wordpress Theme
One of the things Blogger users envy Wordpress users is the endless selection of free and premium themes to choose from. For this contest, I’m giving away a Block Magazine Wordpress Theme designed by Wordpress Rockstar Adii. Here’s a screen shot of the Block Magazine Wordpress Theme. Click Here for a live demo.

nice contest but i just lost my blogger blog, ALL.
EL responded on 11 Feb 2008 at 6:11 pm #
Wow Great Contest Again!
Some question:
(a)Subscribe to Blogging Mix. Subscription must be verified = I did subscribe your blog via google reader, can you check if im subscribe or not?
(b)Review and link to this contest and Blogging Mix. = both of this combine in 1 blog post? or separated?
(c) Review and link to blogging mix = you mean review on the whole blog?
bloggingmix responded on 11 Feb 2008 at 6:23 pm #
@ El,
If you’re already subscribed, that doesn’t count.
Review and link to this contest is treated differently when you review Blogging Mix (Blogging Mix in general).
A review of this contest earns you 10 credits and a review of Blogging Mix earns you another 10 credits.
EL responded on 11 Feb 2008 at 6:36 pm #
ouch so i lost 5 point because i have already subscribe earlier?
bloggingmix responded on 11 Feb 2008 at 6:44 pm #
@ El,
Thanks for subscribing but I apologize that the feed subscriber only applies to those who haven’t subscribe to Blogging Mix yet. Come on, there are still other ways you can get credits.
Good luck!

This couldn’t have com at a better time. I am quickly outgrowing my Blogger site and need pages for reseach links, bibliography, book rviews, etc. etc. he chances of winning, I realize, are slim, but so far I’ve added you to my technorati favorites, linked on my Perishable Thoughts blog (http://perishablethoughts-chicagobookbabe.blogspot.com/), voted for you on Bloggers Choice, subscribed to your feed, and as soon as I can figure out what Stumbepo and Digg are I’ll probably do that too. Hey I’m a middle-aged (make that old) lady who doesn’t get a lot of this stuff. Anyway, my Chicago History blog (http://chicagohistory-sharonwilliams.blogspot.com/) needs a makeover so I’ll watch for information on how to do the switch.
