ArcaMax Publishing Launches Special Holiday Feature

(PRWEB) November 16, 2005 -- ArcaMax Publishing (www.arcamax.com), a leading feature news publisher, is offering its readers a chance to be contributing authors on its special holiday section that includes recipes, shopping tips and trivia quizzes.

"We're asking for readers to send in their good ideas on how to celebrate the season to publish alongside our many other articles and features," said ArcaMax CEO Scott Wolf. "Not only will they get published on the Web site, their tips and holiday activities will be featured in three of the ArcaMax newsletters, which have a total of 200,000 subscribers."

Anyone who submits a tip will also be entered into five separate drawings for $40 gift certificates.

"We're very excited about this promotion," Wolf said. "We did a similar promotion in September for the start of the school year and it was very successful -- we received more than 40 useful tips from our readers."

Visitors to the ArcaMax Web site's special holiday section (http://www.arcamax.com/cgi-bin/news/channel/1036) can share their original holiday crafts, recipes, and tips with other readers. The best entries will be published in the section, as well as in the Recipes, Parents and Home newsletters.

Drawings for the gift certificates will be held once a week throughout the holiday season, and winners will be announced on the Web site and in the email newsletters (or referred to as "ezines").

The holiday page contains ideas and information to help its readers throughout the hectic season. Busy shoppers can read up on special deals from Internet-based companies, and those looking for help around the house can get help on everything from cooking a turkey to choosing the perfect Christmas tree.

Readers who want a little more help with their holiday dinners will find a variety of recipes, such as an impressive crab leg dinner and seasonal side dishes.

The section also features information on charities running special drives, fun facts about Christmas in other countries, trivia quizzes and a vocabulary Hangman game.

ArcaMax publishes family friendly content on its Web site and in 25 ezines that include including Parents, Gardening, Consumer News and Doonesbury and Garfield cartoons.
