Social media competition entries & the increase in cheaters

For the past 2 years we've seen how competitions and prize draw entry methods have progressed to the now very much social side of competition entry.

We have new methods of entering competitions via the likes of Twitter and Facebook, blogs, and more & more big brands are jumping on the band wagon to host their own competitions online.

For you guys, the 'compers' this has got to be a good thing right? It means you have even more competitions & prize draws to enter!
But wait, its not all hunky dorey in the world of social media driven competitions. Unfortunately some of these newbies are making it too easy for the cheaters. Whereas if you enter prize draws directly on respectable companies websites they tend to have better technology to stop people entering multiple times in order to keep it fair for everyone. (Plus proper t&c's!)

Win4now has had this blog, a twitter account and Facebook fan page for a while now and more recently we added an incentive for you lot to spread the good work we do here with our Share & Gain social media feature.
We also have years of experience in this field and do not tolerate any cheaters. We have have spent alot of money verifying every registration and competition entrant to ensure they are genuine, anyone found to be cheating is removed.

By all means have fun entering competitions around the internet via social media, just be be careful who you give away your details too and make sure your happy that they are trustworthy.

Happy comping!
