2011 Tour de PF Championship Sprint | Bloggers Lair | Yakezie Forums

Today is the last Stage of the 2011 Tour de France bike race, but it's also the last Stage of the Tour de PF! 

There are only two blogs left competing in the championship "sprint." It'd be great if you could stop by and vote for either Donna Freedman or Afford-Anything at the link below.

Heading over now Jacob. It would be great to read about your success and lessons-learned from this promotion.

I just voted! This was a close race in my mind.

Voted! Awesome tournament Jacob!

Happy Friday morning all! As promised, the post-event wrap up/summary post is now live on my site at the link below.

Below are the highlights after the dust settled: A big thanks to everyone who helped make this possible!

• 17 total Stages
• 26 blog posts
• 753 total comments/votes
• 3,000 page views of Tour de Personal Finance Stages and posts.
• 2,083 unique visitors to Tour de Personal Finance Stages and posts.

Looking ahead to the 2012 event, I'd love some feedback on the following items:

1. What's more important – having posts spread out so that they coincide with the normal blogging weekday peeks in traffic and only doing one post per day, or increasing the frequency of the posting/stages (as was done this year) so that we can start and finish on the same days as the actual Tour de France?

2. For the 2012 event, I'd like to try to get a title sponsor involved (I think it'd be possible to convince a sponsor based on the amount of views the company would get). With the proceeds, I would be looking to give half of it to a charity that is designated by the winner. 

What does everyone think about this idea? Does anyone know of any sponsors that might be interested in this?
