Get Higher Ranking in Google
UPDATE: I raised the prize amount to 2,000 credits. Enjoy.
I have decided to give away a free 1 month ad block and Entrecard credits every month. So not only can you enter to win $100 every month of 2008, but if you have your own blog (or just about anything else) to promote, you can now win that 125 by 125 pixel ad space right up at the top in my header for a full month. I recently got this award for having the best Entrecard widget placement up there. Clearly, it’s a great spot for your ad to get noticed. Better still, I’m giving away another 1,000ec so you can get your ad on a bunch of sites in the Entrecard network!
How can I win?
This one will be just a little different, but like always, I want to make it easy to enter. Just do ANY of the following to enter:
- Comment on this post (1 entry)
- Send a visitor to http://www.joetech.com from your site (2 entries per visitor!)
- Sign up for my RSS feed via email (10 entries)
- Favorite me in Technorati (10 entries)
- Put http://www.joetech.com in your blog roll (30 entries)
- Write a post about this contest (MUST link back to this post) (50 entries)
- Write a positive review on your blog (MUST link to Joetech.com) (100+ words) of JoeTech.com (100 entries)
- Stumble one of my articles (20 entries)
REMEMBER: You do not have to do all of them. Any combination of any of the above works, but do all of them for the best odds.
Bonus: If your site or blog has an alexa rank under 50,000, DOUBLE YOUR ENTRIES
Entry deadline is January 30, 2008.
What do I get if I win?
There will be one main winner, who will get the 125×125 ad block for the month of February as well as 1,000ec to be spent at Entrecard on even more ad space (or do whatever you want with it). I reserve the right to approve your ad, but if I deny it, you can submit something else until I approve it.
What do I get if I don’t win?
In my post to announce the winner, I will link back to any blog who posted about the contest, added me to their blog roll, or reviewed JoeTech.com. Additionally, I will have more prizes (to be determined) to give out to those who enter.

Besides, is it ok if I use any other method for referring to your blog?
INconstantIN’s last blog post..EBay Inc Chief Executive Meg Whitman preparing to retire
on January 22nd, 2008 at 3:56 pm
INconstantIN: If your blog rank has an alexa rank under 50,000, you can get double entries. Otherwise, it’s 1 entry per visitor you send.
You can use other methods to send people here, but it depends on what they are. I’m very particular about what kind of traffic I reward. I definitely don’t want pop-under/pop-up traffic or anything resulting from spam or trickery.
on January 22nd, 2008 at 5:04 pm
No, Joe, I did not mean that. What I meant was banners or repeated posts, not any of those illegal methods, no way!
