Oes Tsetnoc = SEO Contest
If you are a member of the PromoJunkie Webmaster Forum, then you can enter into their new SEO contest. In short, you have until December 15th to boost a newly created website to the top of Google rankings for the keywords “oes tsetnoc” using the best white hat SEO tricks you know.
My entry to this contest is Oes Tsetnoc, the SEO Contest & Experiment. I have decided to make the focus this site on the 96 day SEO experiment aspect. I will share all of the ways I am working towards optimizing this site in hopes that it can help other contests, and even people those who are just starting out new websites and blogs, to learn more about SEO.
And of course, Oes Tsetnoc is a dofollow blog, complete with CommentLuv & KeywordLuv, so commenting is well rewarded!
Week in Review
This week, I was having a bout of writer’s block and turned to Google Trends for popular topic inspiration, which led to me writing about my new iPod, and why you should always get a full replacement extended warranty from a reputable retailer for expensive electronic items.
9/11 Tribute
Because everyone loves the clydesdales.

Kristi,
Nice tribute and I am a survivor of 9-11 and I have seen things that people would have never believed. I was not even 100 yards from the scene and I lost 6 close friends I knew and rode the Long Island railroad with for over 6 years.
I didn’t want to write about 9-11 today as I had other thoughts for those who are no longer with us.

Great post as usual. Loved the clydesdales vid. You so rock!
.-= Peter Liu´s last blog ..The 3 M’s That Are The Bane Of Good Photography =-.
Thanks again for sharing so many great links each week. I look forward to this post every Friday.

Wow what a cool mix. One I know who’s going to win that contest
two I stumbled that site.
three Budweiser made a nice tribute video but it’s surreal that they are NOT
an American company anymore
Well hopefully with a reflection of today and the President’s awesome speech
Americans will wake up and get back on track. next stop Term limits
Hope you and your husband have an awesome weekend
thanks for everything

Thanks for this tribute. I still cry every time 9/11 comes around.
Hey,
Thanks for the mention on the Windows 7 competition
As always, fetching Friday rocks!!

Thanks for the collection of links! Guest hosting can be difficult if you are in a smaller niche as I am with wine, but we can all hope to find something useful along the way.
I pray all those affected by 9-11 are able to gain peace.

I am going to edit the post now and include it as I realy enjoy this one!

Hey Kristi,
Another great mashup, as always, and as always, I am grateful for the link love. As for the Oes Tsetnoc I think it’s a great idea. Not only funny but thought provoking, not the regular “I want to be #1 for chocolate donuts in New Jersey” kind of SEO contest. Really look forward to see your results, keep my fingers crossed

Hello~
I am from New York and Frank has a point about 911.My parents ride the Long Island railway almost every day.
It is a matter how each one feels to reflect and honor those who’ s lives taken that day.
I wrote a post last year in detail as a young blogger and this year I felt it was necessary to keep it simple and to the point.
Prayer.
Joining in prayers written for 911 and helping to heal our country.
It is sad to remember but something we must never forget. We cant live in fear but awareness.
I had considered myself, patriotic before but I have become more so. Not as though I go along with everything the government does but appreciate the life this country has made for me and honor those who have died for freedom and justice.Not only in this country but in others.
This is as usual a great article. I love Fetching Friday. You have done a terrific job and thank you for the link love.

Kristi, I don’t think anybody who care about humans can forget 9/11 at all. In the past year, the 7th anniversary, I’ve blogged about it and I wonder when they will be able to caught the bastereds because they commited something unforgiven by any mean!
@Frank (1st comment): It’s new for me to know that you’re a 9/11 survivor !
.-= Hicham´s last blog ..Me, Myself and Websites =-.
Another great Friday Roundup. I especially like the business and blogging links this week. I think this is going to be a productive weekend! Thanks for the great articles
.-= Mark Lewis´s last blog ..Play for The Moment and Dream Big =-.
Perfect! I mean the duplicate file remover. I’m the person who’s not really good at organizing files. LOL.. So sometimes I get duplicates as I copy one file to another folder and forgetting all about it. Great great list. Thanks!

Great weekly wrap up. The Oes Tsetnoc SEO Contest & Experiment is quite interesting. I look forward to learning about how this contest evolves for you. Should be a great learning experience. Best of luck in hitting the Number 1 spot. Be sure to let us know how we can be of assistance.

It sure has been awhile since the 911 incident, but no one can ever forget that horrible day… may the souls rest in peace. Pray that the world can have eternal peace and no more hatred or war…
Apart from that, thank you for sharing the resources and as always, they are promising and informative. Take care, Kristi. ^^

You have great collection of the links. Word press is great resource for all the blogger it provide mainly useful plug-in which are useful for blog owner and commentator.
I admire your gratitude and your urge for making some sort of emotional way to show your love and passion for those dear ones who lost their precious lives on that terrible day. I was going through NY Times photo-journal blog and still people come to the memorial with tears in eyes and huge despair in their heart to pay tribute. I wish and sincerely pray that no such thing should happen again in the future. I am with you in this.
