There are tons of contest going on and many have offered cash,prizes from books to vaccum cleaners and also advertising space if you were to linkback to the blog.

How many of you agree that offering feature link or 125x125 banner is cool and you will join the contest just to win that space?

Personally, a contest giving anything away doesn't do much for me to go see/link to a blog. I think it's unnecessary and gimmicky myself.

good point mikster while it is gimmicky to hold such a contest,i guess there are still many willing to lay their hands on the goodies or are they no longer interested in these contest? Lets wait and see what others have to say..

The assistance of other bloggers who know their craft is always appreciated. That and things like someone willing to do a quality graphic, or write a custom script, etc

125*125 good if the site has traffic.

If you really want to exclude cash then gift us the domain names we are eying for

For me, it depends on what kind of blog is hosting the contest, e.g. CD or tickets if the blog is about music, books if the blog is about writing, recipe ebook if the blog is about cooking
