A little friendly contest
Well I’ve put the summer to good use. Yes I wasn’t posting but I have been working hard and planning new ventures and new ideas. Many of these business ideas are online and I’m very encouraged to see opportunities just exploding with advertising and affilliate models raking in the money. The revolution of the internet has finally come and the dot-coms have already fled the building so it is a great time for me to get into it.
I’ve decided to focus a little on search engine optimization (SEO) and have challenged Derek Wallace to a contest to see who can raise their public Google Page Rank higher in the next few months until the next update. Both of us are hitting a public PR of 3 and it needs to go higher. Hopefully in the process I can reclaim the top spot for my name search
No offense to Craig in Southport!!
Let the games begin!
The Race is On!

I tried searching for my name the other day - I’m down to #20 from 5 I think before. Probably due to the lack of updates….

i’m afraid u’re quest for the top spot on Google is not that easy, firstly the other fellow has the name in the website adress and it’s more present in the content of the page.
should focus on u’re trading venture

Woops! I forgot to moderate comments as it wasn’t sending me e-mails to tell me when they were arriving! Damn comment spam!
I agree though… I think Craig in Liverpool will be tough to beat! He’s monitoring me too!!
If you do a search on ‘Atkinson’ he comes up around #50 or so and I’m back near #150. I’m climbing though as I believe I was closer to #200 first time I checked.

Looks like I jumped past the fiddleguy to #2 in Google! I climbed a bit in the Atkinson ranking also but can’t find Craig in Southport anymore?

I was searching just atkinson to find out relative rankings where you were much higher. But I don’t think that idea really worked anyways. Things change daily and with not that much reason..
Oh well looks like you are top banana
