Directory Contest is now on!!!

Great offer Jeff for the prize to go to charity

Well Done

 

I am not sure if I will enter yet but if I do you guys don't stand a chance

Just some first thoughts
1. Directories with a details page have a strong advantage
2. Directories with a details page that use the site name as a title have an even stronger advantage
3. Directories with a details page that use the site name as a title and have the site's name withinn H1 tags have an even stronger advantage

 

That is the competitive Spirit that will make this contest fun!

 

Yeah Phynder some of these guys like dkessaris and others have really great directories so they have a lot to post about

 

Many directory owners are worried about not looking good in this contest. I say screw that and go for it!

 

Absolutely! there is no shame in entering and not winning. The great thing is that everyone will be able to learn from the winners.

Imagine if a Refer Listing page, or Details page would outrank everyone. Directory owners all over would be adding Refer Listing and Detail pages pages, if they dont have them already.

 

Hmm... seems like two sites I own are the first to get indexed : )

 

Jeff is going to donate the price he wins to charity...

EDIT

Woopsss....sorry... I jumped a few posts and didn't see it was already there.

 

there are others. The search term is directorycontest.co m, instead of adding the http:// www. onto it.

 

Hmmm well that's confusing... in his first post he used http:// and the google search he linked to was with http://

 

Yes, it was changed the following day, see my post #53 and his reply #58

 

Yeah we agree directory owners come on board you can only gain, you have nothing to lose

 

I am in for one of my new directory. At least this contest reminds me every day to keep improving directory SERP for next 3 months.

 

That is a good way to look at it!

So, when is someone going to make one of those cool leaderboard applications that keeps track of the contestants and their positions?

 

Blogmaster what about these suggestions from Phynder ?

 

Hold on, getting to it now Some nice movements already! http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=directorycontest.com

 

The results don't mean much yet, we will get a more clear picture when the listing moves out of the latest links pages of directories

Edit to add: However, if you decide to stop the contest now and give me the money I wouldn't mind

 

You need to earn it

 

Well atleast i am happy that i am on main page for search of that keyword i dont care if i win but atleast i am working on it and my directory might get better se rankings becuase now i am paying special attention towards it
