The concept of the HeroineGirl Auctions is to earn bidding dollars from links and clicks to her blog.
The more links and clicks to HeroineGirl Auctions, the more blogging dollars are available for bidding on the donated items.
In effect, the links are the currency for bidding on prizes. The more links to the HeroineGirl Auctions blog, and the more clicks sent, the more link dollars a bidder has to compete for prizes. The "wealthy" bidders in the auction are heaviest linkers and traffic providers.
Note that some of the donated prizes are rather whimsical in nature, as befits a humour blog like HeroineGirl.
As a technique for attractive visitor traffic and incoming links to her blog, HeroineGirl Auctions has developed a truly creative concept.
As with all new ideas for attracting blog links and visitor traffic, there is no guarantee that it will work.
The early indications, from a visit to the auctions blog, are that there are quite a few participants in both the traffic and links generation side, and on the donated prizes side. The idea appears to be working.
Warning: some of the language and commentary on the HeroineGirl Auctions page is not for everyone.
Thanks to hilarious offbeat humour blog Fat Eye For The Skinny Guy for the link.
