<\/a>It was a post that was several months in the making. I was having it on my to-do list for months, but was finally able to finish and publish it.<\/p>\n

I am not talking about a post here, but at my Blog at ReveNews.com, which is related to internet and affiliate marketing. The blog post I did is titled “User Generated Advertising Web 2.0 Style<\/a>” and is about leveraging communities like deviantART.com for your business.<\/p>\n

deviantART<\/a> is a great place for businesses who want to do “different” advertising, 100% Web 2.0 style. I suggested the use of dA design contests to have artists create designs for any kind of thing you can come up with. I explained the benefits like this:<\/p>\n

You engage people, inspire creativity and get authentic designs, which are honest and pure. It could be a web 2.0 style advertising campaign, very viral (speaking of buzz marketing).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s a pretty long post<\/a>, but I recommend to read it, if you are interested in this sort of things.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I did a contest at deviantART myself last year. It was not a design contest, but it was a contest to promote my Text art site RoySAC.com<\/a> a little bit. I blogged about it too<\/a>. I hope this provides some inspiration. Just think outside the box from time to time and try out new things. This is true no matter what you are doing.<\/p>\n

Cheers!<\/p>\n
