Contest Platform Software

Social Media Contest Platform Software

I’m going to start this list with software contest platforms that you can use to host your contest, sweepstake, or giveaway and integrate them with your social media accounts.

Note that these platforms also can do a lot more than integrate with the major social media platforms. However, I just wanted to focus this list on the ones that allow you to integrate your contest on those platforms.

Social Media Account Integrations:

• Instagram

Woobox integration with Facebook and Instagram is a little different than the ones I mentioned above. Woobox doesn’t track likes or comments to your FB or Instagram page, however, it can select a comment to be your winner for Instagram or a comment or like for Facebook.

For Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, you can run a hashtag contest where you can select a winner based on a hashtag.

Landing Page Contest Platform Software for Your Website

Here is a list of 4 giveaway platform software that you can use to host your contest, sweepstake, or giveaway and integrate them with your website.

These giveaway platforms focus more on your website and creating beautiful landing pages or forms. There is definitely a strong case to be made to focus on your website rather than the major social media platforms.

Social media platforms can cancel your account or your post at anytime for no reason whatsoever. It’s happened to me and I lost a FB page with over 5,000 followers. It’s happened to many high profile social media influencers with many more followers.

On top of that, when you direct people to social media platforms, they can get easily distracted and go somewhere else.

These giveaway / sweepstake platform software still offers social media features such as referrals, voting, and other methods to run a successful viral contest for your website.

Woobox

Easily create and run successful contests, giveaways, polls, coupons, forms, and more

I listed Woobox here a 2nd time because it really focuses more on your website rather than the social media platforms.

I did list it above because It does offer a unique method of integrating with the major social media platforms if you decide to use them in your contest
