SEO INFO

The first recorded SEO Contest juts like Busby SEO Test today was Schnitzelmitkartoffelsalat by German webmasters, started on 2002 November 15 in the German-language usenet group de.comm.infosystems.www.authoring.misc. In the English-language world, the nigritude ultramarine competition by SearchGuild and DarkBlue (Dark Blue Sea Ltd) is widely acclaimed as the mother of all SEO contests. It was started on May 7, 2004 and was won two months later by Anil Dash. On September 1 of the same year, webmasters were challenged to rank number 1 on Google in three months’ time for the search phrase seraphim proudleduck.

In the first quarter of 2005, people were competing for the term loquine glupe, spawning web sites ranging from shampoo advertising to holiday resorts.

Internationally, in 2005 two major contests took place in Europe. In Germany the Hommingberger Gepardenforelle (Hommingbergian cheetah trout) by the computer magazine c’t spawned almost 4 million results. The goal was to find out how search engines rank sites. In Poland almost at same time the Polish SEO community organized the msnbetter thangoogle contest. It topped the 4 million but failed to reach its goal to promote SEO in Poland and to get search engines companies’ attention for the Polish market.

A competition ran from January 1, 2006 to March 1, 2006 and carried the term redscowl bluesingsky, another set of made-up words. It was sponsored by SEOLogs.com. Shoemoney won this contest, and since he contributed the winner’s money, he donated it to the number 2 winner.

In normal niches the competition is not as killing as in SEO contests, well… except for the search engine optimization niche off coarse. But to be the best in an SEO contest you don’t always have to have a big wallet, or a huge network of authority websites. You can also win with a good strategy, and good SEO tactics.

The number one for the search engine contest keyword phrase is always the one everybody is focused upon. And everything that page does is being duplicated by hundreds of people. And that’s not what you want, do you? You want to win by surprise. The best way is off course hitting the first spot a day before the end of the contest. But how can you do that? Well I’ll explain it to you.

First of all you need to get yourself indexed, get some low pagerank backlinks from some link directories or something. This is to know your position in the contest, once you rank at a spot for the specific key phrase you kind of know how hard it is going to be, if you rank on the first 3 pages of Google the competition isn’t that hard. But if you rank at the tenth page it’s going to be a little more difficult.

The next thing is to use your network of websites. You can do that by placing a link from each website to your contest page. But if you have many websites and many pages on those websites, it can trigger a Google penalty, and you don’t want that in the contest. What you also can do is creating a page on every website you own and link to that page from all the pages within the website. You will get high valuable links with a lot of weight because the links are on topic.

Another tip from me is try to rank high with a handicap. If you screw up your on page optimization and you can rank high, you can give a final boost to your ranking by doing some on page optimization right before the contest ends.

And off coarse do what I’m doing now: write articles. This is almost the most important thing in SEO, writing articles about the subject. This article is about SEO contests, and it would never been written if i never participated in the pvmultimedia seo contest. Also like you see above, you can put anything in your article, so put your targeted keywords in it for the contest. You can see I’m doing that as well, I wrote down the words pvmultimedia seo contest because those are the contest keywords.

And if you write a lot of articles you have to submit them to ezinarticles.com and other big article directories, they will be all over the web in no-time. All organic backlinks from highly optimized content related web pages from all around the globe, all different ip addresses, all with the one link you prefer, all one way links. This is the way to be the best, not money, no networks just be smart and stay out of sight.

As everyone know, inbound link is very important in determining your position in search engine ranking position. Getting inbound link is one of SEO or search engine optimization essential techniques. Inbound link is a link from another website(s) that pointing towards your website. The more inbound links, the better your position in search engine, thus increasing your chances to get more organic traffic from search engine.

SEO is a science of getting organic traffic from search engine. It is a combination of couple of techniques that involve optimization of your website. The techniques is divided into two main categories, which are on page optimization and off page optimization. Inbound link is a technique that fall under off page optimization and link building.
