Just under 4 hours until this Week’s WHW Draw

Well, it looks like another week is coming to a close here at Web Hosting Wednesday. From the looks of things, and unless there is some kind of rush of last-minute entries, this week’s odds are looking pretty good.

Here’s the usual breakdown (for WHW Week 3) thus far..

8 Entries Total (at last count):

  • with 1 entry you have a 12.5% chance of winning
  • with 2 entries you have a 25.0% chance of winning
  • with 3 entries you have a 37.5% chance of winning
  • with 4 entries you have a 50.0% chance of winning
  • with 5 entries you have a 62.5% chance of winning

Now, obviously these numbers assume that you are already in this week’s draw for 1-Year of Web Hosting, and that nobody else submits an entry before the deadline tonight at 11:59 EST.

Still, even if you bought 2 entries now, and the total count went up from 8 to 10 entries, you would still have a 20% chance of winning. Those are good odds, considering you’d be getting 2GB of disk space and 32GB of bandwidth per month for an entire year. 2 entries only costs 2 dollars - and if you win, you’re hosting needs are taken care of for quite a while. Or, just get 1 entry for a buck and play a 1 in 9 chance - which works out to 11.1% - still pretty good.

The choice is always up to you.
