Giveaway Hop: No Strings Attached

A giveaway hop is a blog hop just for giveaways. Each participating blog signs up to host a themed giveaway. Prizes often meet a minimum value.

Some giveaway hops have a grand prize at the host blog (that initiated signups and coordinated the giveaway hop).

InLinkz or Linky Tools scripts are commonly used to list blogs participating in the giveaway hop. The linky is usually added to the end of every blog post included in the giveaway hop.

Follow the giveaway hop linky to hop from blog to blog for giveaways. Start wherever you like, but keep track so you don’t end up revisiting the same one. I suggest going in ascending or descending order with visited links coloring.

Bloggers attempt to make their giveaway easy to find during a giveaway hop with banners, buttons, or links on the homepage.

Entry requirements may vary at every blog. Take some time to read the rules before entering a giveaway, then hop along to another one.

Visit as many blogs on the giveaway hop that you feel like or have time for. It can be time-consuming so you might not complete the linky. Hop on to the next one if there’s a prize you don’t care about winning.

Giveaway hops are an excellent way to find many new and interesting blogs. They offer lots of chances to win an assortment of prizes.
