Hi Alvin,

I can tell you put alot of work into this contest and it seems to be put together well. However, I think for many people it’s just too much to do. I think the easier the better when it comes to blog contests.

I wish you good luck though. I just found your blog and subscribed.

Google has paged ranked zero and even banned quite a few sites that google bomb like gathersuccess does. Sometimes google bombs blow up in ones face, this might be one of those times.

Anyways, it looks like a great competition and i can’t wait to see what people come up with.

Hey Alvin,

No worries about your page rank, your loyal readers are still here. We as marketers are after traffic, sales, profits, not just page rank.

What Are The Top 3 Problems You Are Facing When Trying To Drive Traffic To Your Blogs or Sites?
- automating & randomizing link building
- automating & randomizing social bookmarking
- time management: too many places to buy traffic, too little time to test, so I test a few at a time

List 3 Types Of Products Or Services You Would Buy Online?
- wordpress blog graphics & customization
- content rewriting service
- content writing service (expert writers, not general ghostwriters)

What Are The Top 3 Problems You Are Facing When You Are Blogging?
- writing quality & detailed content regularly
- encouraging more comments from readers
- getting other bloggers to link to me

Most of the above problems can be solved with proper project management & time management skills.
