Well, I'm prompted to knock squidoo as a part of my plan in sulumits retsambew seo contest at NetBuilders.org. Going fantastic so far. People are excited. So am I.

New Text module 

SEO contests have been in news for the last few years. This contest is nowhere different from last many SEO contests but I can see a spark of something better. May be because it's my first contest. Well, not realy getting what to write in the lens but YIKES!! squidoo won't publish me if I don't put up some minimum 300 words :O

What what what?? My plans would be

---> Keeping an eye what other contestants are doing?
---> tweaking my wordpress blog for sulumits retsambew (http://www.sulumitsretsambewno.com/) that I created specially for this contest. 9though I'm not happy now)
---> Doing some immediate social bookmarking
and.... and.. why should I tell everything right at the beginning???

I wonder if people stay equally excited and motivated throughout these 3 months. That would be fun for sure.

I'm going to update the lens pretty soon. Just need to finsih some Monday jobs here else my clients would be mad.

See ya

The Rules Of Sulumits Retsambew 

The Rules of Sulumits Retsambew

It's easy to get scared when entering an SEO competition. Just do a simple Google search to discover that you have more than a thousand opponents, many of them with a whole arsenal of SEO tools. It's intimidating, to say the least. But if you'd still like to join, here are the rules of sulumits retsambew competition.

The whole contest is pretty simple, really. You just have to get your site to the first-, second- or third-ranking search result for the keyword. When the contest ends on August 15, Will Spencer will do a Google search himself to determine the winner of the contest.

Aside from that, there are no rules you'll have to strictly follow, no methods or guidelines you'll have to observe. If you think about it, that's really the whole point of the contest - to see which SEO techniques are the most effective with Google's current algorithm. It looks like there's no secret to winning the Sulumits Retsambew contest; you just chuck all the SEO methods you know and then hope that they work.

Just remember to post your domain on the NetBuilders.com forum if you're entering the competition. The organizers require the entries to be posted there so that they can keep track of everyone who's vying for that $1,000 prize.

The organizers aren't sure which domain names have an advantage in Google over others, so there aren't any Sulumits Retsambew rules about that yet. You could actually get multiple domains of different kinds and then use various SEO techniques on them. You don't have to submit a single site; the search result at the #1 position should just be yours. Going on a shopping spree at Go Daddy won't affect your chances - in theory.

Of course, it's implied that only white-hat SEO techniques should be used for the contest. The organizers won't be able to tell if you've used a link farm or two, but it'll be Google that will be doing the punishing for black-hat methods. You'll just be making the #1 spot even harder to reach for yourself if you use black-hat, so it's pointless, really.

Each domain can claim just one prize, and those indented search results won't be counted by the judges. But the rules don't say anything about a person winning multiple times, so you could actually win two or all three prizes if you're that good.

Sulumits Retsambew With Empty Pages? 

Take a quick look at the current standings for Sulumits Retsambew and you'll notice a single common factor among the Top 10 pages. Whether they're regular blogs or formal news sites, each one of them has content in varying degrees. Some have less than others, but all of them have content to some extent. Well, almost all of them do.

One of the top-ranking pages for the Sulumits Retsambew SEO contest leads to an empty hosting directory. There are no articles, no text, not even a landing page. It's a surprising development, especially since many of the other pages on a similar footing have oodles of content to their names.

How Did It Do That?

No one is sure exactly how a page so devoid of content could climb up so far, but there are guesses. Extensive link building, for example, could account for its fantastic page rank, even despite the lack of real content. Its meta tag description would suffice to get it indexed by search engines, while all its links would do the work.

But that explanation isn't without its holes. For example, all the inbound links to that page would have to be of the web master's contrivance. There's no chance for natural link building to happen. After all, which web master would link to a page with practically nothing on it? If that ranking was due entirely to inbound links, the web master of that page would have exerted a lot of effort.

Can It Win?

There's a possibility that it could win, but those chances are very, very slim. Historically, the winners of almost all the notable SEO contests were pages with a formidable amount of content, most famously Anil Dash's several years back.

Content-low pages are also at a disadvantage in terms of regular SEO. It'll be harder to promote a page that nobody else would be interested in because there's nothing to be excited about. That immediately cuts out any form of help from third parties, which could account for a volume of backlinks that would be very expensive to buy outright.

One of the secrets of success of many top-ranking pages is that they encourage or somehow entice people to link to them. Many blogs are already doing that for Sulumits Retsambew. Those external forces could contribute much to a page's rankings, and that contribution wouldn't be limited in any way at all. That's one of the basic reasons why good content works so well for SEO.

Is It a Good Idea?

It would depend on what you're after. If you're trying to create a well-controlled experiment that measures how much backlinks alone could contribute to your page's rankings. The fact that it's an SEO contest already gives you a good opportunity to eliminate a lot of external factors, giving you as close to the absolute effect as possible.

For getting top rankings, though, it's a road that's unnecessarily difficult. Getting the desired results will cost you a lot more financially, while a little bit of valuable content would have achieved the same result. The fact that only one such page has made it to the first SERP should already be indication enough of how effective the no-content method is.
