Well every SEO is outraged with Wikipedia placing nofollow tags on all outbound links, in fear of the great amount of spam they would receive from the GlobalWarming Awareness2007 SEO Contest.

Most people are looking at the negative side of this. However, me being the optimist I am, am happy because I don’t have any Wikipedia pages sending me traffic.

Nevertheless, I know that my competitors use Wikipedia pages to give them some link love. Well if you want to be a cruel SEO, you can place nofollow tags on their URL’s simply by updating the page. This means that existing links do not have a nofollow tag unless they are updated!

It seems that the excitement caused by SEO Contests has not yet fully died out. A new website has risen and they plan on holding an SEO Contest on a yearly basis - SEO World Championship. I have already mentioned their website before, but the keywords for the 2007 SEO Contest has been announced earlier this week.

The keywords are - “globalwarming awareness2007”. These keywords were chosen to help others understand & be educated about the global warming issues.

I won’t be participating in any more SEO Contests, but a friend of mine is, so take a look at his globalwarming awareness2007 site.

We have been participating in tons of SEO Contests (but can’t find the time to dedicate a lot of time to it) and now Shoemoney is putting up an SEO Contest as well! His SEO Contest is worth nearly $25,000 and is sponsored mostly by aZoogleAds! He hasn’t announced the keywords for the contest yet, but he posted this nearly 3 months ago!

There are tons of websites which offer free desktop wallpapers and usually require you to download a program with a virus. The experienced web users can pick this out in a second, but Google obviously can’t! That’s why Scandoo (owned by ScanSafe) comes out and identifies it for you!
