Well, instead of counting days ascending, since this day we are counting days until end of the Sulumits Retsambew descending. Yesterday major changes happened.
New forces are going strong, and I must admit I am scared of their advance. Since time is passing its risky to lose position, since now you don’t have time anymore to recover it. Sunitas Sulumits Retsambew and Sony are lost their positions, and winner entry pedee took their positions. Discodog lost two positions and its now on place six. Sunita also mentioned this fluctuations and people last minute activity.

Time is passing. Today is 86 day in Sulumits Retsambew and we have 67 days before contest end. Google is playing with indexed pages and there is less pages now indexed then on contest day 79. Google show 653k indexed pages. First page is similar as before. Biz entry who is playing with it is back on second position. He deleted his page few times, he dropped few times from first page, but it looks that Google like his entry and it always give him back his second position.
My link building is going quite well, I almost catched Sunita and her 14 600 backlinks. I am currently at 13 800. Big job if we know that she had advance of over 5k backlinks, 12k in front of mine 7k. You could say that she is forcing me to play harder.
Soon I will deploy few of my latest way to gain backlinks, I just don’t have time to do it right now.
I am also wondering is anyone interested that I pack this simple theme I used and which have countless number of custom onpage optimization and tweaks?
Few days I did not watched how Sulumits Retsambew go, and today I noticed that we crossed magical number of half million pages indexed by Google for our favorite keyword. I see the:
Results 1 – 10 of about 666,000 for sulumits retsambew. (0.11 seconds)
So it looks that by this rate of people joining, we will cross million of pages much earlier then I expected.
First three positions are still stable and since we are back on first place we are firmly keep it. WebmasterStimulus.org made his way to the no4. That is not surprise and I expected that he will jump to first page. Two new entries are yehia.com and web2news.com
However I can not open yehia since I noticed that entry introduction on Net Builders. Web2news are some social bookmarking site like digg, reddit and similar.
I tried to start article marketing finally, but I failed, my first article on ezinearticles is refused. It is obvious that I don’t know enough about writing and my English is not good enough. I can not write article that will pass quality guidelines so it looks I would need to hire someone or to forget Article submissions.
My link building campaign is also dead. I simply don’t have time for it, so I will push up little bit over the weekend. We even lost few great backlinks from strong sites due to complicated reasons. Good thing is that people very like few articles on Sulumits Retsambew Blog and that they constantly link to them on various forums and discussion boards.
We were running the contest last month with 4 domains as prices. And now contest is over and it is time to announce winners. To enter the contest you only needed to comment this post with the domain name you want. Also you needed to leave real email address so I can contact you. Here are the people who entered in contest. Number in front of the name is the comment number. Those who did not write which domain they want, are disqualified.
So these people showed interests for domains: (more…)
What is new in Sulumits Retsambew contest? Lots of new entries and lots of new faces 
. Every week first page is restumbled, but good thing is that first few entries are unchanged. We are still holding the first place while Sony with his biz entry and Sunita with sulumitsretsambewno.com are closely following us. First page now again have 3 web 2.0 entries. Most of the contestants predicted that they will lose track after first month, but Slideshare, Mixx and Reddit are still here.
Interesting is that forum entry on tareeinternet.com is going strong. And it looks it is just going as is. No link building or any web promotion . Maybe I should register.
Google is showing 280k indexed pages. Much less then I predicted. Also number of indexed pages few days was nearly 500k but it looks Google deindexed much of them. Or most likely that number is wrong 
.
I stopped my work on this entry, and I am worrying that if I don’t start, soon will lose my first position.
I would like also to say that my personal contest domain give away are near the end time. One more week and that’s it. So if you want to catch free domain feel free to drop comment here.
Eriuqs Spires Healthy Recreation is yet another seo contest. In the difference from the Sulumits Retsambew, this SEO contest has some specific rules (for example no keywords in the domain or subdomain), it last only until 31.05.2009., and it does not have so rich prices. Winner gets 400$, second place 200$ and the third place 100$. Not something special, to do much job. I decided to join with my Eriuqs Spires Healthy Recreation, but since I don’t have time for another promotion I will not bother my self if I don’t experience any success there. Eriuqs Spires Healthy Recreation is who knows what, and their makers is hoping they will get bunch of backlinks to their sites Heart Rate Watch Company and Spires at Red Lodge. That is even one of the rules, to have links to that two sites in the contest entry. As I said I will not do anything specific. Just maded that blogpost there and I will see how it goes. If blogpost jump on the first page for the term “Eriuqs Spires Healthy Recreation” then I will consider doing some work around it. But spare time for that will be hard to find. Strange thing is that my Across The Planet site is very well and fast indexed, but it looks Google is skipping that post. One day passed and it is still not indexed. I will try to do some quick social bookmarking, but I am wondering if that will be enough.
While Eriuqs Spires Healthy Recreation is not going so very well, here on Sulumits Retsambew we are still going strong. Google indexed 223 000 pages, and it looks like people are very consistent with their link building campaigns. First page is completely changed, and some of my favorite entries are deep down. It is long race ahead of us.
