Seo Contest 2.0 - Contest length

[MES]

In 2 months I can reach the Top 10 Google SERP (rank 9 )

But I don't have a special team like French Task Force (Sphere Team) or Phinoy Team. Even though Indonesian contestants use the same flag and symbol, but we do SEOcontest2008 by ourselves, not organized well like Sphere Team or Phinoy Team.

I only have several links exchange and some backlinks from my friends. But it's ok, no problem. I think it's a challenge to fight alone, because as SEO consultants we will have clients and we must serve them well by ourselves.

I need more than 2 months to get better result. So I propose 4 months if possible. But if "the clients" can't wait too long, 3 months period is ok

voted three months.. tho its already long enough... I guess it would be just fine..

I put my vote on the 3 months length.

MES, i noticed in one of your blog post, there are 3 Indos in the top 10. There were also 3 Pinoys. me, .org and semlaguna. We also worked individually, and we just tend to help each other in the last stretch by pushing up whoever is leading.

Pogung was impressive since he only needed a month and 3 days. And you are there two. Maybe it is more of a lesson for us. If the 3 Indonesians on page 1 grouped on 1 site only. And if the 3 Pinoys grouped on 1 site only.

But for me, that ruins the excitement. I still prefer going solo. And just help out the current leader when it is near the end.

Hi Benj, I agree with you. I prefer going solo too...

There are many lessons we can learn from this SEOcontest2008.
I think we will need a special ebook to write down all contestants' experiences. This will be a new business I think .
