Well, the main suggestion is: enter more giveaways :)

Yup, pretty sure this post got him added to more than one blacklist. I'm not saying it's right or wrong, but that's the reality of it.

Try entering giveaways with fewer participants per available prize. If a giveaway has 300 participants and one prize, you would expect to win sometime around the time you would be entering your 300th giveaway. If a giveaway has 5,000 participants and 50 prizes, you would expect to win a prize sometime around the time you would be entering your 100th giveaway. If you want to increase your odds, search for giveaways that are ending soon, but have relatively few participants.

I unfortunately don't have any tips, mostly because there aren't really any. One of the only two I can offer, is private groups that require giveaways for membership. About one month in, I joined a small private group that required me to give shit away. I liked to give away cheap games as they go on sale, and then enter all the giveaways they make. I have even once won 3 games in one night from the same group! Also, I would suggest to never stop entering giveaways. About 400 entries in, I thought I was really unlucky, but then I realized, giveaway normally have 500+ entries. And your chance to win can be expressed as 1/500 for most giveaways. That would mean you have 0.2% chance of wining. Therefore, you are unlikely to win early on, in fact it took me about 4 days to win. Also, even if you never win and want to leave, stay because this is one of the best communities you will ever meet. Between me and my friends, I found out about news last. However, thanks to this community, I find out first, and sometimes I find out things they never even find! Not only that, they are very nice here. It's almost like they are welcoming you into their home (only this is better then a home). So anyway, stick to it buddy, you'll have to win at some point.

I'll tell you what. If you end up going three and a half years without winning like I did, I will make an invite only giveaway just for you.
Three. And. A. Half. YEARS. Let that sink in.

Pretty much. I'm also a busy/lazy person who didn't use the website for a while and came back despite being discouraged by my lack of winning. Once I realized I was better off giving and not worrying, I started winning. Now I've got a 12 given:2 won ratio.

The years registered on Steamgifts don't necessarily mean anything. You've entered 1,138 giveaways so far, which is an approximate average before winning a game. I've won my first giveaway a bit after 1,000 entries, and I had been on Steamgifts for a few months.

Most people win their first giveawy after 1500-3000 entries. I suggest you enter more giveaways.

I use the site primarily as a trading platform and the giveaways are just a bonus :D

Try to enter flash giveaways (which last just an hour). The less time people have to enter, the less entries there'll be. The higher your chance will be to win. Simple.

enter for games that everyone has by now, or for ones with more copies.

it is simple if you are 1 in 100 enries you have a 1 percent chance of being the winner, so once there is about 1000 entries you are gaurneteed that you will not win, scince the chance is now 0.1 percent chance. I have entered into thousands of giveaways and have only won maybe 5.

You've only been here 2 weeks...I was here over a month before I won anything. Don't come here looking to be rolling in the wins....You won't be. Come here for the community. I enter GAs sure, but I never expect to win. I come here to talk to cool peeps, and giveaway my unwanted bundle items to people who might want them...I do enter GAs if a game interests me, but I never expect to win.
Also, fair warning, while most people in this community are cool, there are a few self righteous elitists, and I have seen people get blacklisted by others when they make similar posts, because they deem it whining or what have you.
