Question Regarding My Winners Lists

I was just wondering if my readers enjoy my posts announcing the winners and showing when the winners are confirmed....

I am thinking of not doing winners lists any longer, as I announce the winners on the Rafflecopter form after the giveaway has ended.

So for people that are interested in seeing who actually won any of the giveaways you just need to go to the giveaway post and it will tell you once the giveaway has ended and the winners have been drawn and announced.

I am just wondering what your thoughts are.....

I would prefer to be emailed to be notified... but I do like the winner's lists.

It is so much easier for the reader than going back through the posts themselves.

If you don't want to do the winner's list any longer, would it be possible to send a link in the newsletter to the giveaway once it is won?

I prefer an email as well.

I also like the winner's lists - it's fun to see all of the different names.

I don't need to know--unless, of course, it's me!

As long as you announce on the rafflecopter, I will be happy. I do like to know who wins.

I like an email and the winners list. It is possible to miss your winners email. It happened to me a few times on other contests, but I was lucky enough to check out the winners list in my newsletter and get it on time. Thanks for asking, but it's your choice.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I do not see her saying she will not email the winner, she is just not going to post a winners list. If you want to find out the winner of a particular contest, you just have to look it up to see the winner on the rafflecopter form. I don't need the winners list, that is what I do if I want to find out who won on other sites.

I think a blog post stating who won is sufficient..(not on the original post but separate blog post showing the winners)

I subscribe to you via email and I can see it that way.

With all due respect I follow over 300 blogs and can't go back and track down who did what.

Since I subscribe I would see it that way.

I always post a separate blog post for winners of my give-aways

I like blogs who keep a winners list- for me it just adds to their 'transparency'.
Just an ongoing list is great, although I do get your newsletters and read them I think a list just adds credence for the blogger.

I do like seeing who has won!

I like seeing a winner's list in a separate blog post. If you wanted to eliminate that, what if you added a new tab on your blog for Winners?

While I do enjoy seeing a winners list - if it is inconvient for YOU to do, I would be content with looking at the actual contest rafflecopter form to see the winter.

Really, whatever is easier for you is fine!

I like get an email if i win, and it is nice to have a place to see the winners, so maybe a winners list page?

Lisa KH said...

If I won, I'd like to receive an email and I like seeing a winners list post.
