If you host giveaways on your blog the And The Winner Is plug-in is a necessity! This FREE plug-in takes all the work out of counting comments, picking a winner, and closing the giveaway.
This plug-in is easy to install and set up. When you write a giveaway post there will be a box on the right side of your page that you can check if the post is a contest.
Once the giveaway is over, you have the option to close comments and then randomly choose a winner.
The winner’s email address is displayed on the screen so you don’t have to search for an address.
This plug-in has changed my opinion on giveaways. I was about to discontinue them because they were so much work , but the And the Winner Is plug-in has made it so easy, I have changed my mind.

I wish I would have known then what I know now…WordPress seems to be so much better than Blogger for these types of things. I’m currently doing my second giveaway right now, and I think that people are hesitating to enter because they have to type their email into the comments section.

Also, come on over and enter to win. There’s tons of great giveaways every week! I’m celebrating my birthday, Sept. 20 with lots of great 24 hour giveaways.
