Questions of the Day
Most authors do contests. I know since January when I launched my new website as a published author, I've done three website contests, one blog contest, and two contests on NCP's reader loop (new_concepts_pub-subscribe@yahoogroups.com).
I've given away a gorgeous Celtic Iona wall cross, Stonehenge poster, NCP gift card, one Naughty gift basket, one Naughty/Nice give basket, book thongs, and a prize from my Enchanted Discoveries Mall.
I've gotten pretty good feed back on all of it, but what I would like to know is what do you as a reader like to see as prizes for contests?
Also, what keeps you coming back to an author's website daily, weekly and/or monthly?

What keeps me coming back to an author's website is knowing that it is regularly updated with what's going on. Which is a bit sad for me, because I haven't done that with my own. But I plan to this month once the tax return comes in and I can spend a little money revamping the pages.
I come back to blogs because it's fun to talk to authors and other readers. It's also nice to win prizes. I especially like it when I win a print copy of an author's book. I've found a lot of new authors that I now enjoy reading because I won one of their books.
Readers like print books as prizes.
Or gift certificates to Amazon, or bookstores. But, some of us really dig the Celtic stuff! *G*
I visit an author's site daily usually because we are good friends.

lol. Jolie, I agree. Getting books is so much fun.
You're very welcome. I'm glad you're enjoying everything.
You know, January, I've had several people say that about receiving other author's books. Hmmm. I might have to look into doing that. I have a very good friend who has an amazing Vampire series with Warner.
