Hey Dino,
How do you get so many clicks? Me for now only get 150 clicks.. man…
Not that hard really, just have to have a big email list or have someone that you can have promote to their list as well.
Also you can post in forums and as comments on other blogs so others can check it out. I also used twitter to get a lot of the unique clicks as well…
hope that helped!
Hey so can you give us an update on the current leaders for the promotion?? I have over 400 visitors I think so is anyone beating me!?
I am not sure on the standings for this one.. as I will need them to comment their stats to me.. as I cannot see them
You should set up a submit form where we can show you the bit.ly account that we have with the clicks on it…
hey Alvin,
how you gonna track whether if anyone digg, delicious and reddit the blog post?
you want us to do a print screen and blog it at our blog?

I like the article .I come soon
I like this challenge the most so far, but only if we could promote our own blog and not this post!? Consider it maybe?
I wanted to do that.. but there will be people without blogs or website that cannot take part in this challenge that is why I choose everyone to promote the blog post instead so that everyone can take part
I liked the article. Thank you.
