Gandi SiteMaker competition - Spring 2009
By Ryan on Tuesday 2 June 2009, 12:43 - Gandi - Permalink
Spring is here! Spirits are lifted and it is time to enjoy fun in the sun, and sharing colorful postcards all over the web! This is why we have launched our second Gandi SiteMaker competition with the theme: Vacation get-aways!
Is there a special place where you dream of spending your vacation more than anywhere else in the world? Do you want to share it with everyone so that they too can have a wonderful time?
Create a website about this dream location using Gandi SiteMaker and you might win a E.P.C Inspiron Mini9 offered by our partner, Dell, as well as a free year's subscription to Gandi SiteMaker Pro.
To participate, you simply need to have an available Free Gandi SiteMaker plan. We will only accept sites made using the free version of Gandi SiteMaker, so that everyone has the same chances of winning. If you would like a quick example of one, here is one that I made in under 2 hours (I am slow), only using elements available in the Free pack, as well as some personal photos.
Your websites will be judged on the following criteria:
General ergonomics, the graphic cohesion of the site, originality, clarity of information, final touches, and finally, the warmth that it gives off! We want you to give us the desire to go there and to dream of a vacation at that spot.
As we enjoy visiting your websites at Gandi, our entire staff will be voting on the websites. For once, it will be us that judge your work...
Ah, there is one more thing! The goal of this type of competition is to make the internet more colorful, and so let your imagination run free! We are not limiting the number of websites allowed and you can even make your website on one page if you want. And as always, we are keeping the competition fun and laid-back. There are no rules, no lawyers, etc. We are just doing this out of pleasure and as among friends; Fewer rules means more fun
The competition has already begun, and it will end on June 30tht. Please send your website address to us at whoisdabest@gandi.net.
As for us, we will be putting on our sunglasses!

competition ended on May 30th?
@Ryan:
Your article header says:
By Ryan on Tuesday 2 June 2009, 12:43 - Gandi
But the competition ended several days BEFORE June 2nd - on May 30th.
I don't understand why you would write an article in the present tense when the competion is in the past?
Thank you.

Your free site builder should be promoted to the users of Google's free website builder and hosting service which is coming to an abrupt end. It would be a great way to grow your business.
Hi Terry,
Thanks for pointing that out
The article was updated recently, as the competition has been extended, however in the English version of the text, I overlooked changing 'May' to 'June'. I have just corrected this, and so the tenses make sense now!
