    That's uniques.. to be hnest the only problem is making those visitors post something, they are registering to see links only and not to post any. :(

    Hello Everybody,

    It is March 1st. and this contest is over.
    This post is here to announce the winner and thank everyone who ever entered the competition. Yuo all did a great job in making the forums active and interesting.

    It was a little hard to determine the winner because the data gathered during the period of the contest was a little confusing, some appeared higher in search engines while other sent-in better traffic. I talked to some of my online friends who helped maknig a decision.

    DPF Username: Meads
    Entry: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showpost.php?p=1900759&postcount=17

    I am contacting the winning member by PM and will keep you posted when he receives the prize :)

    Good luck & Have a ncie day, Ruslan

    First, congrats Meads. I didn't realise March had come already - this year is whizzing by.

    Second,
    Where did you mention that traffic has to do with anything? That's pretty weird to bring that in to *judge* the winner considering it was never a criteria announced.

    Thirdly, who got 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th?

    Regards,
    Matt

    Hello,

    Thanks for the reply, traffic had nothing to do with the final judgment as yuo can see. It was taken based on the google standing ONLY. I just mentioned that in case someone was interested to know how it all went around. Please do not be confused.

    2nd..5th winners will be announced later today, i did not forget those ;)

    Have a nice day, Ruslan

    No problem. This is what got me confused:
    To me that implies that you were taking both SERP and traffic into account.
