Leading youth tour operator Topdeck Travel has announced the launch of an exciting Battle of the Bloggers competition to help answer an age-old question: which is the best travel destination, Australia or New Zealand?
"Australia and New Zealand are beautiful nations with a longstanding rivalry. But which is best to visit? Topdeck are seeking two talented travel bloggers to help answer once and for all who rules the roost in Australasia!" Topdeck's Global Marketing Manager Sean Keddy said.
The two victors of the Battle of the Bloggers contest will each win a dream holiday with Topdeck - one will experience a 14 Day Island Suntanner in Australia and the other a 14 Day Kiwi Encounter in New Zealand - and blog about their experiences.
"Each lucky winner will blog about their travels whilst on location, and their thoughts will help influence a public voting panel to decide once and for all which is the best destination" said Mr Keddy.
He added that prospective applicants could be established bloggers or simply talented individuals with a desire to get involved in blogging.
"The Battle of the Bloggers contest will suit personable, enthusiastic and creative travellers who enjoy telling others about their travel experiences. Application for the contest is very simple" he said.
Mr Keddy explained that entrants will need to follow a three step process:
1. Write a blog of up to 500 words about one of their favourite travel experiences (which must be in a Topdeck destination).
2. Post a video entry on Youtube (tagged with #battleofthebloggers and no more than 90 seconds long), about a travel experience (which must be in a Topdeck destination).
3. Fill in their contact details and submit their entry at www.topdeck.travel/bloggers
"This is a terrific prize and the winners will get great exposure for their blogs" said Mr Keddy. "Also, we hope it will finally settle some long-running disputes between the Aussies and Kiwis in our office!"
Applicants must submit their entries by 30th November 2012, and Topdeck will notify the winners by 24th December 2012.
