I am launching a mini giveaway to my balkhis users. This will go for the next 15 days. I will let you advertise your website, blog, or product on Balkhis as long as it is tech related and it can be helpful to Balkhis audience. Now what better way there can be to get a strong backlink and free traffic to your website.

Now comes the crucial part: I will not be writing about your product. YOU WILL.

The posts will be published as is, without any changes, so make it good. Remember images in the post helps explain alot.

One user can submit upto two products, sites, or blogs.

Now the terms are simple:

You must be a subscriber to Balkhis RSS Feeds via EMAIL

You cannot use affiliate links in this post!

When you write these posts for balkhis, you understand that these will not be reposted anywhere else on the web. If this review is posted somewhere else, then I will remove it from Balkhis. So basically I am saying is make it unique. At least make an effort.

Tip: If you have a blog, highlight some of your best articles in the post. Give Balkhis readers a reason for visiting your site.

Alright a month ago, we launched a contest which was sponsored by one of my favorite affiliate networks Market Leverage. Well I have finalized and sent the winners of to Dina and they should have already received the emails. Although I was informed that one of my winners did not respond back. So I will post this post, just in case if they see it, and they can contact me asap.

This contest was open to all publishers that joined under my referral. A mandatory part in this contest was to be a Market Leverage Affiliate. Only one person followed that direction in this contest. So technically there was only one legal winner. But due to the generosity of our sponsor, we will be giving away both prizes away.

First Winner: CD16072 (Asus)

Second Winner: Deanna of WinwithDeanna (deanna@j******.com) [Have Not Contact Us Yet]

So Deanna if you see this post, please contact me with your details. If she does not contact, a substitute winner will NOT be announced.

I would like to thank all of my contest members who tried, and I would strongly recommend anyone who has not joined Market Leverage yet to JOIN Market Leverage, this link will let you join under a publisher who came from Balkhis which means you will be able to compete in our future contests and have a leverage over others.

Special Thanks to Amanda Roberts of Balkhis for helping organizing and maintaining this contest.

Sincere Gratitude for Market Leverage Staff and Mike Jenkins and most specifically Dina Riccobono for helping me launching this contest.

I know that a lot of you have entered the contest that is going on Balkhis. But I have realized that not all of you are following the correct procedures.

This contest is only for those users who have signed up with Market Leverage under my referral.

So signing up to Market Leverage with my referral is a mandatory step that you need to do.

If you are already a user with Market Leverage, and you did not join under my referral, then you are not qualified to enter this contest.

*These are the terms that both I and Market Leverage agreed upon when starting this contest, so they must be followed in order for this contest to go smoothly.

I don’t know about you, but I think its been too long since Balkhis gave something away. Who up for a contest? Thanks to the wonderful people at Market Leverage, Balkhis will be giving away not one, but two awesome prizes.

The first of our two prizes will is a brand new white ASUS PC, much like the one you see below, and the second of our two prizes is a brand new blue iPod Nano.

So what do you need to do you may ask? Well the winners of this contest will be chosen by random draw. Now, to better your chances of winning it is in your best interest to accumulate as many entries into the contest as possible, and you can gain entries by doing the following:

Subscribing to Balkhis’ RSS Feed you can gain 15 entries. This is the mandatory part of the contest, so if you want that ASUS, make sure you subscribe!

This step below is mandatory.

Signing up for Market Leverage will give you 15 entries into the contest. This is one of the simplest ways to earn lots of entries, so if you have yet to sign up, make sure you join Market Leverage.

Now, if you generate $1 with Market leverage, you will get one additional entry. Now this can only be used one, but, if you generate $100 with Market Leverage, you will get an additional 15 entries into the contest. So go out there and make some money!

Another easy way to get entries into the contest is to simply blog about this about this contest with a link back to this post. You can get 10 additional entries for your post.

Now if you have heard of this little thing called Twitter, you can make a killing with Twitter Entries.

A twitter post about Market Leverage (for those with 100 or more followers) will net you two entries, and this can be done daily for the twenty-four days the contest will run for a total of 48 entries!

If you follow @MLTV on Twitter, you can get one entry, and following @MarketLeverage will give you yet another entry to the contest.

And finally, you can gain 5 points for EACH PERSON you refer to participating in the contest. This can be done as many times as you like, just make sure that the people you refer comment that you referred them.

Well there you have it, it is as easy as that! The contest will run from now until March 22nd.

Now this contest is only open to new and current Market Leverage publishers who were referred to Market Leverage by Balkhis, and if you won a previous contest, than please sit this one out.

This contest will be operated in accordance with state and federal laws and regulations, and the contest will be run fairly with the winner chosen by random drawing.

This contest is not associated with, either directly or indirectly to: (i) alcohol, tobacco, prescription drugs, or any illegal substance; (ii) pornography, adult content or sexually suggestive or explicit content; (iii) expletives or inappropriate language; (iv) racism or racial hate; (v) gambling or lotteries; (vi) firearms or fireworks; (vii) any product or service that is illegal for a minor to purchase, obtain or possess; (viii) any group, political party issue, public policy position, organization or individual.

Once again, Balkhis and Uzzz Production is proud to present you the Areebu template for phpLD and Wordpress. This template is named after my brother Areeb, who is also a part of Balkhis.

This template is special for directory owners because it contains category Icon mod, so category on the homepage will have unique icons. This mod is right now a paid one by another vendor, but I am offering it for free in this template.

All you have to do is get the category id number, and rename the icons to those numbers, and you can also add “.png” icons 48 x 48px size with more categories as you go. To find quality Icons, refer to my post Icon Pack for Webmasters.

Note for directory owners: When you install the template, It won’t work in the beginning because Category IDs are different in each database, so you will have to rename the icons or add icons. For those who doesn’t want this mod, I will add a version without the mod also, so for those who doesn’t want to go through the updating of the mod they can just download the other version.

Wordpress version is like normal. I have added some extra widget ready sidebars. If you don’t know how to use it than visit my post about how to create and use extra sidebars.
