SEO Contest - Follow your site progress here

[SkinnerW]

I have updated ALL url's in the database with trailing slash "/" unless you had a single page ending with ".html".

Most of entries were registered without "/" in the end and that is why our script did not pick them up from Google SERPs...

 

[MeetHere]

I manually checked on google.com and I am #69
but your script shows no where in top 100

 

[SkinnerW]

I just looked and could not fing your URL on this page: seocontest2008 - Google Search

This is the official page that will be used to determine contest winner - our standings just to give members some idea where they are comparing to others and root for theirs favorites. That page is updated once a day and looks like last two days it was not updated at all...

 

[MeetHere]

Its there, please find with keyword seocontest2008.in - #69
Before 12 hours, it was ranking 226

 

[SkinnerW]

I am not going to argue since it does not matter.

You should worry only if your site is withing first 10 results on Google for a few days and script did not find it...

Again - our script is for entertainment purpose only - Google is the one who defines the winner...

Also "seocontest2008.in" is not the targeted term...

 

[MeetHere]

Also "seocontest2008.in" is not the targeted term...

what i mean is you can search for keyword SEOcontest2008 updates from your browser search (ctrl F) after opening this seocontest2008 - Google Search

Anyway , take a look at the 2nd last entry here seocontest2008 - Google Search

OK no worry.

Guys,
I am on position 54 for the first time according to the script above at 1626 hrs on 27 Feb 2008 - I know its not good for most of you ! But for me - competing against seo professionals - its quite good! I am sure someone will push my site back in the SERP's ! :no:

Still learning, though!

Thanks Temi,

It was a wonderful surprise for me - i am usually on the 16th or 20th page of SERP's - couldnt find my site in the usual place today! Still cant believe it, though!

 

[BenjArriola]

Just wondering if the ranking status page is broken, not updating or I do hot have the required links written properly. I have two links on my pages sitewide:

<a href='http://www.ukwebmasterworld.com/' target='_blank'>UK Webmaster World SEO Contest</a>

And

<a href="http://www.ukwebmasterworld.com" target="_blank">Webmaster Resources - Web Hosting SEO Forums Web Development Directory &amp; Web Tools</a>

Is there anything wrong with my entry why it is not appearing on the ranking status page?

 

[SkinnerW]

Looks like you've made it to the #1 on Google Benj.

I know your entry is in so don't worry about standings script.

 

[BenjArriola]

Cool thanks Skinner.

Actually I kind of don't like the #1 position this early. Still 32 days away. We never know what can happen. I like getting #1 when it is 2 weeks left, there is less tense during that period.

 

[pogung177]

I agree with BenjArriola, hero always appear on the last times.

Yes Sir that is correct. I just checked my registration details and I found out that my entry’s URL has no trailing slash. Maybe that’s the reason why I was not listed on the standings page.

@Temi, pls. check or edit my URL in the registration database. Thanks.
