Comments on: The Greatest Real Estate Agent in the World Contest Part 2 http://www.3dogmedia.com/greatest-real-estate-agent-in-the-world-part-2/ Thu, 17 Dec 2009 08:46:34 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Benj Arriola http://www.3dogmedia.com/greatest-real-estate-agent-in-the-world-part-2/#comment-1820 Benj Arriola Wed, 21 May 2008 17:53:23 +0000 http://www.gregboser.com/greatest-real-estate-agent-in-the-world-part-2/#comment-1820 I became a sucker for SEO contest, started out with small contest when my SEO knowledge was limited, until I started winning: 1st place - hoax contest, i got fooled! Vorgermilten in 2006 1st place - SEO World Championship by Get Updated in 2007 (I won a car!) 2nd place - SEOContest2008 by UK Webmaster World (won some cash) When I heard about this contest: "Greatest Real Estate Agent in the World Contest" I decided not to join right away. Because the words were just real English words, dictionary words and most probably after the contest ended, many people that join this contest will have sites ranking for various real estate terms. And for someone looking for real good real estate related sites, it can be annoying for them just to find out they found sites all about SEO. Or maybe about real estate but did not have good content since the site was really made for SEO. but of course I am sure there were people that joined the contest with good real estate content and value but I don't want the SERPs to get dirty too with tons of SEO sites. And the more and more I join contest, the more and more I realize they are not really important and does not prove you are better than the real professional SEOs. But I still do them for the prize, for the recognition because the common person still thinks I am super good in SEO because I won *LOL* makes marketing easier and just want to have fun. But the keyword should not be disturbing any existing industry online. I became a sucker for SEO contest, started out with small contest when my SEO knowledge was limited, until I started winning:

Great post. I don't get over here as much as I would like anymore but your sarcastic approach to the stupidity that exists out there always makes me smile. Matter of fact, I included your name in my new song, The SEO Blues. You can find it here: http://www.businessol.com/seo-blog/2008/03/seo-blues-free-mp3-music-download-by.html Hope you dig it :) Catfish Bro you rock. Great post.

That was actually the term I kept checking on. For the search term “Greatest Real Estate Agent In The World” that I just started checking last night there were over 1.2 mil results. The pages indexed for that term have been cut almost in half in less than 24 hours. Time to worry? BTW – In part 1 I posted a comment (at the bottom) that left a link to a 404 – sorry ‘bout that I had no way to edit. ~Mack Greg for the term “The Greatest Real Estate Agent In The World” I have seen it as high as 7,000,000+.

Someone who operates a site where link building consists of pressing the publish button, or someone who has to constantly be asking for a helping hand?" Sadly, I think that there will be people on both sides for a long time. As for who are the winners of this. I somehow agree with Lydia, there are no losers. Everything relies on each one's perception. “where do you want to be down the road?
