JoeTech.com will be getting a shiny new server this week.

In the past month, traffic to JoeTech.com has more than doubled. In the first 10 days of this month, the Entrecard Slots and Free Ad Slots widgets have already been displayed on other sites over 120,000 times. That’s a lot for this old creaky server to handle, so it’s time to move up. We’ll have a server that’s nearly twice as fast with four times the memory. I’m sorry about all the down time lately, but we should be in much better shape by the end of the week.

After gathering up all 2,045 January $100 Contest entries, picking our random number, and digging through all the entries for the winner, I am happy to announce that we’re giving a hundred bucks to Mark at 45n5.com. As soon as Mark replies to the email I sent him, we’ll send $100 his way via PayPal.

January was our first shot at this and while we’re still fine-tuning, I think it went rather well. I can’t wait to give away another $100 in this month’s contest. This month was sponsored by the following awesome blogs:

- JoeTech.com
- Link Bait
- Gorilla Sushi
- Mixed Market Arts
- CK Marketing
- The Big Bald Blog
- How 2 Blogger

This is not to be confused with our February $100 Contest which you can enter right now.

From time to time, I will be too busy to post or out of town (or country), so I’m looking for guest writers with talent. What’s in it for you? Exposure. JoeTech.com gets a lot of daily traffic, has 101 RSS subscribers (and rising), and continues to drop on Alexa (this is good). This month, JoeTech.com is hovering around the 20,000 mark. Also, at the end of each month, if I have enough guest posts, I’ll give something nice (like a gift card or cash) to one of my guest bloggers. Who else offers that? If you’re a talented wordsmith, and want some free exposure for your blog, register and submit an article or two. I can’t guarantee that your article will be posted, but I will try to be responsive in a timely manner. Here’s what I’m looking for in an article:

- Should be (at least somewhat) tech related, but I’ll consider those that are not as well
- Should be PG-13
- Should be fresh ideas
- Should NOT be something already posted elsewhere, and you promise to NOT post it elsewhere after submitting to me.
- Technical level can be novice to UberGeek
