Platform to organize a giveaway on Facebook?

Question

I would like to give away 5 copies of my ebook to 5 random people who like my product's Facebook page before June (or already liked my page and just enter the giveaway? or all fans? I am open to any similar rules).

RaffleCopter and My Contests seem to do that, but with a few drawbacks:

• RaffleCopter seems to be a widget to embed in HTML. I would prefer a simple link, so that I can share it easily. Preferably a link that does not look too scary to the user (http://facebook.com/giveaway/MyProduct is OK, but http://facebook.com/1941274?action=like&no_confirm=yes and http://heroku.biz/wqeofew look scary)
• Both platforms advertise themselves to people who enter the giveaway. I am OK with a bit of advertisement, preferably not too much.

Requirements:

• Free
• Hosted (I have no server to host this)

Actually this giveaway looks acceptable to me (link, URL not too ad, no ads), but I don't know what platform they are using.

If Facebook had an official (non third-party) way to create giveaways, that would be the best.

I recommend you using Woobox. Woobox helps you easily create powerful contests, sweepstakes, coupons, and more to grow your fans and amplify your marketing. The benefit you can take:

Woobox use url looks like https://woobox.com/randomcharachter. You can start it for free, I have nervous about advertisement informations. Sorry, If this recommendation was not suitable for your Facebook giveaway.
