SEO Contest

It hasn’t even been one full day and Google shows 69 results for Sulumits Retsambew. It cracks me up to see the junk sites that are involved. They may rank, but those sites are the ones you hate getting on. Filled with blinking banners and pop-ups (ha ha – blocked!) I think of the amateur builders from the 90’s.

Those attempting to rank for “sulumits retsambew” without using popular social media sites are not as highly listed as those who are. Mike Dammann used digg to get a head start, but was taken over by the .org site showing that Google still gives more weight to the domain name having the keywords in it. Mike’s site Firetown is showing #9 right now for this Sulumits Retsambew page.

 The .net owner thought he could get creative and claim that it is his name on a comment sent to this blog. I am guessing he wanted a link and try to stir up link bait by controversy. It might have worked if he applied for a name change…

Of course these domain name were taken very quickly:

www.sulumitsretsambew.com
www.sulumitsretsambew.net
www.sulumitsretsambew.org
www.sulumitsretsambew.biz

If you are still interested in joining the contest get over to www.netbuilders.org (see previous post for more info.)

    As I slipped from number 3 to number 9 within 2 hours, I now realize that this contest is not going to be one of those where you can just point links and expect to be on top.
    This will be a very long battle and a lot is going to depend on how powerful your best friends´ sites are :)

    With all the friends you have around the world, you should be getting a lot of links! If you stay on it, I would be you will be at least in the top 10.
