How to win competitions! Write the perfect winning answer, easily!

The tone and approach an entrant uses in their competition entry counts for a lot when it comes to judgement time. Although the winning entry may take a formal tone, more often than not it's the quirky, funny, and entertaining entry that really wins the judges over.

If you’ve still not won a competition in your lifetime then you should pay close attention to these winning tips.

1. Be witty. Competition judges often read hundred, if not thousands of entries per competition. Not only do you need to stand out from all the other people who have sent entries, but you need a hook that will make your entry stick in their minds long after they've rated your article and kept reading other entries. Making witty, original comments is one way to do improve your chances of doing this.

2. Be entertaining. Most written competitions offer to publish their winning entry, so remember that you're writing as much for the readers of a website, magazine, or other publication as for the judges. By knowing who their target audience is, and writing to that audience, you make it easier for them to publish your writing and declare you their winner!

3. Follow directions. Anyone who has multiple submissions to review is not going to want to sort through entries that don't follow directions as a result the reviewer is far more likely to be looking for reasons to cut down on their own workload. Don't let a careless typo, lack of correct information, or other simple error prevent your entry from winning the prize it deserves!

4. Pick competitions that are right for YOU. Not every competition is right for every person. It may not be a good idea to spend time entering a competition and working on your entry if you simply don't have the necessary expertise to put together something insightful and well thought out. Remember there are thousands of competitions running in the world at any given time, so at least a few will be perfect for you!

Following these guidelines is sure to help you win improve your entries for online competitions - which in turn can help you win competitions no matter where you enter them!
