Just like the title said… Blog and win a top spot for a month… How about that? Feeling excited already? Now… Let’s start the contest then…

I will run this contest every week… The first one should be on day 1 every month… The second one is on day 7 every month… The third one is on day 14 every month… And the last one for the month is on day 21 every month… Then I will start it over again on day 1 the on the next month and the next and the next… The winner will get the top spot for a month… So… we got a winner every week… As you can see at the top of this page where it says "Contest Winner Week 1" "Contest Winner Week 2" "Contest Winner Week 3" "Contest Winner Week 4" That’s where you’ll get your top spot… How about that… At the top of the page… Nobody will missed that… It’s the first thing they see…

To enter this contest is easy… What you have to do? You just need to blog about this contest at your site and don’t forget to put a link to this post in it… Then you can leave a comment here pointing to your post and banner that you blogged about… It’s that easy… You also have to post a comment to congratulate the previous winner of this contest at their winning site… (Since this is the first contest then you don’t have to do this… but you have to do this on the next contest)

I will randomly pick the winner each week based on the content of your blog… So… make sure you blogged it nicely and cool… If it got my attentions then it will be the winner for the week and got the top spot for a month… And the winner cannot enter this contest again until the next month…

And as usual… there’s a little requirement to follow… You have to put our 125×125 banner anywhere at your site… I’m not so good at image graphic manipulations… That’s the best I can get… You can click this banner here or at the bottom of my sidebar to get to the latest post about this contest… I will link it to the latest contest post every week when I run a new contest about this…

And here’s the code for the 125×125 banner…

Blogging will take over the world!

Blogging will take over the world!

by: Chris Everson

In recent years, it’s been pretty obvious that “blogging” (Web + Log = Blog) has simply taken over the internet.

Early blogs were first used by creative (bored?) indivuals, and larger news companies. http://info.cern.ch/ was one of the earliest blogs, followed by NCSA’s “Whats New” and also NetScapes “Whats New” blog. After this point the blogging scene exploded.

What exactly is blogging? Many consider blogging in it’s truest form a type of internet diary. In it’s most pure and basic form its simply a single, scrolling webpages with a few links on the side, and an archive table, and larger, prominent updates in the center of the pages. Users usually post small excerpts about daily life, recent events, or news.

Creative writers often attract groups of people, who will pursue and follow that blog, often posting comments on updates. Some writers write outrageous, offensive things that also attract readers. Some people write about personal experiences, and some just flat out write whatever they want!

RSS, (really simple syndication) also started directly because of blogs. Rather than visit an indivual site over and over again to read the updates and posts, coders started using xml to enable these updates to be available anywhere in the world. In response, RSS has created a whole new chapter in the SEO world, all because of blogging.

Many people have begun to weave affiliate links and even sell there own products through their blogs, relying on their dedicated readerbase to generate huge conversion rates. Programs like WordPress can generate ENTIRE web sites simply by advanced forms of blogging. One of my own sites, www.emoneyreport.com utilizes this program. Instead of bloggin real life experiences, we blog our article updates and program reviews. Very nifty!

Even major search engines are taking part in the blog scene. Most noticably, Google, purchased the site www.blogger.com. Now google controls the largest, most successful blogging site to date! Google indexes and spiders every post created on this site, EVERY day. It’s common practice to create a blog, write small posts and link to your own site through the blog, and doing this you can get spidered and indexed within a day!

We have to ask ourselves, whats next for blogging? Will blogging become the next form of linking? Who knows? All I know for sure is that I like what blogging has become, and that it allows my site to generate income for hundreds of people all over the internet.
