A while back I asked:

>Does anyone know of a company that will handle the logistical details of
>running an online contest?

Here is what I got back from members of the list.

Contests Management Groups:

They create sweepstakes that organizations can sponsor. The also create custom contest for individual organizations. And they will manage specific aspects of your online contest.
