Entertainment Survivor Challenge Winner
T
he Entertainment Survivor Challenge has come to a close. Over a period of 8 weeks, two teams of 18 blogs were narrowed down through a series of challenges until only three were standing:
- Ugly Betty News by Tom Landers
- Prison Break Buff by Nikki Katz
- Soaps on ABC by Dexie Wharton
In the last and FINAL challenge, the three blogs competed head to head to win as the Ultimate Survivor!
The theme of this challenge was "housekeeping." The writers were asked to look at their blog and blogging, and try to make some improvements. The person with the most progress would win as Ultimate Entertainment Survivor! I gave a long list of ideas for things to improve on in general, and asks the finalists to send me what they had done after one week of work.
Tom of Ugly Betty News and Nikki of Prison Break Buff made it in under the deadline, and competed as the final two in contention for the prize.
Tom worked on several areas of his site including his blogroll, text decoration, lists, and participating more with the community in terms of comments and questions. Most content is original, and even videos are well summarized. Nikki worked on her blogroll too, initiating some link exchanges and adding a projects section. She also worked hard on her pages, on getting in new images, and on updating her sidebar. Both bloggers made a lot of improvements, each influenced by what had been done already, and what could be improved even more.
In terms of improvement, both writers made a lot of great changes to their sites. It was a difficult decision. However, comparing the sites now to one week ago, I think the winner for "most improved blog" would go to Tom!
CONGRATULATIONS to TOM of UGLYBETTYNEWS.COM
WINNER of the ENTERTAINMENT SURVIVOR CHALLENGE!!
