Exclamation precharge projectnet SEO Contest

Hey guys,

I was looking around and I found this new SEO contest and seeing how many people are intrested in this I thought I'd share.

My entry to the contest is precharge projectnet. And any links to it would be appreacited, anyways here are th e rules directly copied for the thread:

Quote:
As many of you may know, preCharge Community Forums is creating a huzz buzz around it's contest. We decided to do it again this time based on clear and accurate results that allow you not only to show your abilities but test the system We are releasing this mega seo contest. The are several prizes with more being added all the time. We will keep a very close eye on things and wish everyone the best of luck in their pursuit to be the #1 listing!

MEGA SEO Contest
The Exact Phrase - "precharge projectnet"
The Goal - to drive attention to the ever increasing problem surrounding the biggest challenge we may ever face. Everyday, people in Washington DC and all over the country are trying very hard to limit the exponential growth that the internet continues to have. These limitations may forever change the way we work and play online and preCharge believes this challenge needs some serious exposure before it's too late.

Contest starts Sunday August 19, 2006 and ends December 19, 2006. (duration is approximately 4 months) - Just in time for an extra special holiday surprise. We will even guarantee payment by December 24th, 2006 via Western Union or PayPal.

The URL who ranks highest on Google with a domain registered on or after August 19, 2006 wins for the phrase "precharge projectnet". There are currently no listings on this phrase so it's up for grabs.

You MUST include the following HTML on your webpage.

HTML Code:

Sounds interesting. Although there's a kinda too big difference between the 1st place prize and the 2nd one.
Good luck to anyone who will participate.

I made a small contest entry for this one currently I am doing the carcasherdotcom seocontest so I dont think I can spend to much time on this contest since all these SEO contests are a bit time consuming.

linknz is on the right pathlinknz is on the right pathlinknz is on the right path
I would consider that to be a cheap way to increase a websites backlinks.
Offer a prize and then wait and see how many webmasters place links to your website.
I could index your website, edit the database entry and add a million links to your websites tables and bingo you would show up in every result dished out by my search engine ut it wouldn't be fair or accurate.
I wonder how some search engines may score the links to your website, some may punish such a volume of links appearing overnight.

I'll be joining this one soon.

I have #1 spot and should win the next checkpoints for Carcasherdotcom seocontest on Google and Cpayscom2 Online Casino on MSN
Just need to hold them for 2 more days
So you know I will be the one to watch for.
I am also going for World SEO champ title in the Ambatchdotcom seocontest

I like the end date not being on the same day as any other contest this gives me an advantage as I can shift link power

You can all give up now I am going to win this one!
