just had this in email - Companzee

I have also won with them twice - a set of plates and bowls and a fantastic BBQ.

Both times they were great to deal with. So I'd highly recommend them too.

The more comps you enter with them, the more points you get and hence your chance of winning improves! Love it!

I've entered nearly every comp with them & haven't won yet but they are on the whole great prizes so I'll keep entering

Taken from The Prize Finder's facebook page:

We actually amended our listings policy recently and told them that we could no longer offer Companzee free listings any more. That seems to have annoyed them into sending out the email. Unfortunately, without paying advertisers/promoters, our website couldn't be free for the users!

That is very interesting then. Changing their listing policy. To what exactly? I always thought Prizefinder just got money from sponsorship and they just posted comps people suggested which now seems to be not the case.

Though I will still use them. I find the way you can record when you've done the comps useful. I found that was the case with Loquax till it shut down.

If they work like we used to then the listings will be primarily from their own efforts. On average our listings were 20% user led, 10% promoter and the rest done by ourselves - when you then assess that 95% of those links will earn zero then it's perhaps understandable why things changed and are changing.

For competition listing sites there's few opportunities to earn - sponsors are quite hard to come by (in my experience). You usually have the 'offers' type sites - i.e. the ones that make up the MSE avoid list for example - and that's about it.

Offering a premium listing is a nice idea - we did think about it - but tbh if you have a site (i.e. this one) and Facebook that can often deliver a lot more traffic than portals put together then perhaps as a promoter you don't need to pay.
