The Purple Challenge

Are you tired of trying to work out the ideal keywords for SEO? Want to get some new ideas and have some fun playing with them? Care to join me in an experiment?

Let's take a relatively common color adjective and see if together we can make it a hot buzz word for search engines!

Hopefully along the way we'll generate some traffic for our sites and raise some money for charity?

So what are the guidelines for THE PURPLE CHALLENGE?

I will be mentioning The Purple Challenge on my Blog www.orble.com/the-purple-challenge and elsewhere. Can you do that too? Blog or post on the topic of Purple or anything to do with Purple.

Make it interactive!

Let me know via the Purple Challenge Blog what and when you're posting on Purple Topics. Send us URLS for yours and other older posts you may have found so we can tell other people. Favorite Purple Challenge participants! Send me media reports! Check my sites for new URLS and copy them to yours! SHARE!

Help a Charity!

I will design a few "souvenir" items and put them up on Cafe Press or elsewhere and then donate the profits if there are any sales to local charities.
Can you put up a charity link on your site? Perhaps next to the links list to the other participants with a message like... "These people have joined the Purple Challenge! Support us!"

Here are two idea lists!
