Miss Stardoll World, an annual Stardoll contests, is just around the corner. In case you want to run for it and try winning the elusive title of the Miss Stardoll World, you will need to be prepared. Here are some tips that may be helpful:

- Stock up on Stardollars. If you want to win, you will need to broadcast a lot. Guestbook comments won't help you much, and with broadcasting prices rising during the contest, you are going to need a lot of gold coins in order to get the chance to go into semis, and advance. Buying Stardollars is the easiest way, but you can also try selling some rare and valuable stuff if you really want to get more Stardollars for broadcasting. Remember to watch for Stardoll's One-Stop Rules, as you won't be able to qualify if you have been cheating or behaving badly.

- Work on your Suite. For last 5 years I haven't seen a doll winning a contest that doesn't have a perfectly decorated suite. Get inspired by real life suites or other members' creations. Remember though, get inspired, but do not copy.

- Give a try at designing. Watch some tutorials to get inspired. You could get your name noticed, more visitors and increase your chances in advancing in contest.

- Get socially active. Join clubs, engage in discussions, attend parties, add some new friends, chat, anything so that people notice you. Remember though not to spam people, it is rude and generally ineffective.

Are you going to run for MSW this year? Good luck to everyone who does!
