The Anatomy of a Rafflecopter Giveaway [Infographic]

Posted on August 28, 2012 by Greg Goodson 17 Comments

There have been a handful of tutorials posted on the web that describe ‘how to use Rafflecopter‘ or ‘how to enter a Rafflecopter giveaway‘. Several weeks ago, someone reached out and asked “Hey, how about you create a guide that describes to our new readers how to enter a Rafflecopter giveaway?”

*Well – that’s not a bad idea!*

Below is an infographic that dives into the four phases of the Rafflecopter widget from an entrant’s perspective. And hey… this was specifically created for you to share with your readers and those who are becoming familiar with Rafflecopter. Feel free to use the embed code below the graphic to place this on your blog.

    thank you for your this explanation! It is very helpfull and i will be using your app soon! I do have a question though, since we have a B2B model.. do you have any toughts on how to reach more businesses or business owners. Maybe it is possible to create some sort of condition or make it so that our page has to be liked with a company page?

    Hi there Greg I would just like to say that we are Australians who
    recently visited America. We were there for 4 weeks and decided that the
    place we would most like to live was Boulder, Colorado!! Just a
    beautiful place with a great feel and atmosphere. No wonder
    Rafflecopter is such a good idea :)

    If signing-up to our email newsletter is mandatory, how does Rafflecoptor know that this task was completed?

  • Heather

    If one of the mandatory options is to follow the blog, how does rafflecopter know that the blog was in fact followed?

    THANK YOU! This makes it so much easier that trying to explain it to individuals all the time. Now I can just point them to the infographic.

    That is cute & very informative. I remember when I first encountered Raffelcopter and had to wade through my first entries (as a “contestant”) and later as a user of the system. I just uploaded the infographic to http://chatwithvera.blogspot.com/2013/01/just-what-in-world-is-rafflecopter.html

    I completed all the entries and am still unable to sign into the giveaway- help!
