Wix & Tell Winner: The Pulsera Project
NEW YORK, NY, November 10, 2010
/24-7PressRelease/ -- The winners of Wix.com's "Wix & Tell" contest were announced earlier this month, marking the end to a wildly successful viral marketing campaign. Entrants were owners of various types of Wix websites, who recorded videos of themselves explaining what they love the most about their Wix sites. The entered videos were judged based on creativity, enthusiasm, style and overall presentation, as well as demonstrated use of the Wix
website builder.
The
Grand Prize of a new 13" MacBook was awarded to Colin Crane, who used Wix to make a website for his organization
The Pulsera Project. The non-profit group sells bracelets made by children and artisan families in Nicaragua to schools in the States, and created a beautiful site to promote its cause, complete with a video showing the story behind the Pulsera Project itself. Sleek photo galleries, drop down menus and widgets enhance the functionality of Crane's Wix website, and contributed to his win.
Four
1st Prize winners received "Surprise Pro Packs". These packages included upgrades to Wix' Unlimited Premium package, which grants full domain ownership, eCommerce capability and other VIP features. These winners also received free Wix merchandise from the Wix Store, unveiled earlier this month. Pavena Lee, Wesley Bandemer, Couture Motion and the Fern Creek Tigers were the 1st Prize winners. Their submissions can be viewed in YouTube by searching for "Wix & Tell".
The video with the most views won a "
WixPromote" package which included personalized SEO fixes to boost the online traffic of the user's website, and $500 toward Google AdWords. The prize went to Paul Vasquez, widely known on the web as the "Double Rainbow Guy". Vasquez used Wix to make a website for an online shop where fans can buy merchandise inspired by his YouTube hit.
