Would you mind pasting the link of one of the blogs? I am interested to see how they are framing the promotion.

Here's one: http://www.simplehelp.net/2009/10/08/how-to-install-the-most...

The general pattern was mention the private code as a teaser, describe/review the service, then give the details for signing up with the code.

Have you given up on the Baseshield sandbox concept? I don't see it referenced from Ninite (I'm guessing Baseshield isn't complete?)
