Do comping sites put you off? Ones that need sharing etc

Eg- Rafflecopter, Gleam, Entr, many more I'm sure..
breathe in, breathe out- You're alive! Everything else is a bonus, right? RIGHT??

  • You only have to do the multi tasks once, after that you can get a daily entry with a flying visit taking only a few seconds which improves your chances of winning for very little actual effort.

    I've had some substantial wins from Rafflecopter and Gleam.

    I avoid the ones that make you follow a few different people on Twitter as i'm always near my follow limit.
  • some put me off as there are way too many steps to follow I don't have that much time for all of it , like extra comments on other posts on blogs, following here there and everywhere & I don't have pinterest, instagram and bloglovin et al
  • They do put me off, mainly because I don't understand what the heck rafflecopter is all about lol

    I avoid RC as I have tried hard in the past and got nothing. I have also seen people on here commenting on the high number of bloggers winning other bloggers comps. I am not saying they are not all legit, but once you have read comments like that it kind of puts you off.

    With all this business of everyone being banned from comping on FB I am now giving RC an even wider berth as I don't want to "like" too many pages and get banned myself, and I prefer to keep my Twitter follows for Twitter comps.

    So no, I dont do RC/Gleam/Entr unless I really really really want to win the prize.
    2017 wins = £1350
    2016 wins = £125 (18 months off comps)
    2015 wins = £6,460
    2014 wins = £1,350
