missdonna August 10th, 2003, 07:13 AM If the scoring were done today I'd have a huge 200 points in Frank's contest! Well, maybe that's not too good, but it beats everyone who's reported so far... If Google ever gets her act together I'll get more points, but I have a hunch I won't be the only one. jasonco12 August 10th, 2003, 08:21 AM missdonna- I'll be very close to you too when google updates.. http://abestweb.com/smilies/rotflol.gif _________________________ xtremeshopping inc. goal financial free by 4/6/2004 (my Birthday!)adorable,nice, sweet, committed member. :0) missdonna August 11th, 2003, 07:01 AM Alright! Google seems to have indexed almost all of my new pages! So howcome I'm not getting lots of new traffic? Be patient missdonna, it will come. frankodelic August 11th, 2003, 09:53 AM and the race is on... The contestants have left the gate... missdonna is in the lead with jasonco12 trailing by a length... Are there any oddsmakers in the house?

Support your local Cancer Care providers. missdonna August 15th, 2003, 07:26 AM OK, the race is on! I did a check this morning, and if the scoring happened today I'd be over 2,000 points. Dunno how far over, since it was so tedious figuring it all out. There were a lot of words I didn't bother checking, since I assumed I wouldn't score in them. It still took me well over 45 minutes. You'll really have a big job keeping score, Frank. Question about scoring, maybe it was addressed in the rules, but I don't remember. If a person happens to have more than one of the first 10 results, do they all count? I hope that makes sense. If it's a 200 point phrase, and I have 2 pages in the top 10 results, do I get 400 points for that? I think I should.

If anyone else has an opinion on this one, I'd like to hear it. Fire away.

If you have all 10 spots (wow! good job!), I think all 10 pages should be awarded. If it's the same page listed multiple times in the first 10 results (does Google do this?) then I don't think more than the first should count. The affiliate that works harder on results = the affiliate that earns more points. JMO frankodelic August 15th, 2003, 11:30 AM MissDonna and Linda are both making a lot of sense. I'll leave this topic open for discussion for a little while longer in case anyone else wants to chime in, then we'll set down the guidelines. Thanks for your input ladies!

Google came, indexed a bunch of my pages, and traffic got better and better. Then Google didn't come back, hasn't seen my latest pages, and the traffic is a bit less every day. Gotta try again, I suppose. I sure don't want Google to lose all my pages just when it's getting to be the time for contest scoring! Here Google, nice Google, see what Donna has for you! There. Think that'll work?

Will I get points for both of these seperate pages for each keyword? frankodelic August 29th, 2003, 02:01 AM fcol, Good question! MissDonna and Linda had the same question a week or so ago and we layed down an answer on that one up. The answer is yes. Check this post (http://abw.infopop.cc/6/ubb.x?a=tpc&s=548608979&f=7826001683&m=5276002783) for the long version... the official answer.

I notice that sometimes I have 2 pages listed, another person I know has 2 pages listed, and I don't know who fcol is, but I guess he/she also has 2 listed. Looks like this contest may get Frank most of the top 20 in all the contest keywords. Way to go, Frank! missdonna August 29th, 2003, 07:33 AM Even if I don't win, at least I'm selling a bunch of scooters, which is good. It would be better if I won AND sold a bunch of scooters, but I guess you can't have everything. walleyewarrior August 29th, 2003, 09:26 AM My sales have stopped. Wonder how Rad scooters converts ITS ONLY A JOKE FRANK. At least the rad part,nothing hapenin here. Google hasn't even come looking at the updated pages. Some days I could just scream. One of my lines I rep for off line is going to be bringing in someones electric scooters for me to sell in my territory. Should help out on the learning curve for more sales spin. ...............

I'd check that again, there was a phone order update recently with your name all over it.

I see there's another post from MissDonna there as well... MissDonna... it's too too early to tell who's going to win this contest. I wouldn't give up hope. They do say the early bird catches the worm and you were the first affiliate to enter the contest. I wouldn't throw in the towel quite yet. There's also the Scootsational Instant $200 Cash Bonus to think about! Don't forget about that one. First to hit a #1 on a Level 1 keyword... badabing, $200 smackers!!!

It was from the first page of results. The first 2 results were from someone I recognized from here. The next 2 were from UrbanScooters.com. The 5th was from someone I didn't recognize, but it was an urbanscooters.com affliliate. I had the 6th and 7th. 8th was the manufacturer of the scooter involved. 9th and 10th were urbanscooters.com affiliates. fcol August 29th, 2003, 10:40 PM Frank, thanks for the clarification on double listings. Hit #14 on a Level 1 Keyword but still a ways to go to #1. Now need to concentrate on lower levels. [This message was edited by fcol on August 30, 2003 at 01:50 AM.] fcol August 29th, 2003, 10:51 PM Missdonna, I also noticed a lot of UrbanScooter affiliates in the listings. From checking Level 2 keywords I saw the same affiliate a half dozen times in the top 4. frankodelic August 30th, 2003, 01:19 PM The first prize point allocation is about to become official! I'll be cheking results and passing out prize points on Monday. Well, actually I'll be checking results and saving a copy of those results pages on Monday and then figuring out the prize points throughout the week. When I've got a final tally and checked the results, I'll make a post (affiliate names excluded) with prize points earned so far and a ranking. Good luck everybody!!!
