Entry to the eChinacities Blog Contest is Now Closed...Let the Voting Commence!
Jun 06, 2013 By eChinacities.com

That’s right – entry to the first ever eChinacities blog contest is officially closed. Time certainly does fly by doesn’t it?

First of all, we’d like to give our thanks to all those who took the time to partake in the first ever eChinacities blog contest. After we kicked off the competition on May 1 to coincide with our 5th anniversary, we had an overwhelming response from an abundance of writers, and it was great to see so many blogs covering a whole range of topics.

Now it’s time for the next stage of the contest. As there were a fair few entries (48 to be precise), we’ve shortlisted ten blogs that our editorial team consider to be the pick of the bunch, and they are as follows:

1. The Content of My Character – chamaflauge
2. Chinese Self-Perception – Samsara
3. Electric Guitars in China – bill8899
4. What Chinese Learners Think of English – leshel
5. To Study, or Not to Study – mArtiAn
6. Cultural Limbo – Mojo
7. Buying an E-Scooter in China – TedDBayer
8. Hate, Love, Change – You in China – Hylith
9. Cars! – HoldenColfield
10. My First Visit to a Chinese Hospital! – DaqingDevil

Readers, the power is now in your hands and it’s down to you to personally vote on which blog you think should come out on top.  

To vote, all you all have to do is write the words “1st blog contest – My favorite blog” as part of a comment below, then simply mention the name of the blog article you wish to vote for after these words. Make sure you choose carefully, as each user is only allowed to vote once, and any automated, repeated or fraudulent comments will be deleted.

Remember – there will be three different prizes given out overall with one first prize winner, two second prize winners, and five third prize winners based on the number of votes received. If you need your memory refreshing, the prizes are as follows:

1st prize (one winner) – 1,000 RMB Amazon gift card
2nd prize (two winners) – 500 RMB Amazon gift card
3rd prize (five winners) – choice between free VIP subscription to eChina Dating for three months, a universal travel adaptor, or a 100 RMB Amazon gift card.

The voting period will take place from June 6-26, and the overall winners will be announced on June 28, so get voting!
