This Is The Day! Our Day!

Finally, the end of my contest. Later I will be finalizing everything. Purchasing the Adgitize 2-weeks Gift Card and checking submission of each entries, links, feed subscription, blog reviews, etc... This is the day! And tomorrow, I will declare the winners --of course that is after I draw them. I don't know if I told you guys how I'll be doing it but I'll tell it anyway.
I'll take a piece of paper and place names of all the contestants and let my son draw the winners in order of 3rd, 2nd and the 1st. You are all winners for me.

Once again, I would like to thank all who have joined my contest and to all the sponsors who have made this possible. I remember I was reading an article about how you may achieve a good PR (PageRank) for your blog and one of them is by making friends with others and having a contest. To prove it, I decided to do it and I am really thankful I did it.

I Got a PR1.

Okay, it is a victory for me and a proven knowledge which is called wisdom. Well, actually the PR1 is for my xleontips.blogspot.com and not xleontips.com so which means the new domain hasn't earned reputation yet. But I'll continue to do what I have learned and continue to explore the vastness of SEO and PR world.

Why am I doing this? It's a preparation for the coming invasion lol! Like I said before, I am currently a student and studying about PR blogging and SEO blogging --whatever nonsense terminologies they have invented. But hey! PR and SEO/SEM actually is not a non-sense when you greatly benefit from it (income, traffic, etc). Of course my first step was to improve my sites performance and it is a good start and I think my goal was achieved. I can't believe it! With one try! I thought since only a few have joined and sponsored this contest it may not be enough to ring Google's PR. I think PR1 is quite easy to be achieved unlike the PR2 or any of its older sisters or I may just be doing a great job and I am on the right track or it is because I am so awesome! --whatever works is good for me (lol!).

It is not the end of the world for everyone who hasn't completed their requirements. The time is 9am and I'll be doing the validation later at 6pm so you still have time.

Simply The Best Birthday Gift Contest!





My beloved wife whom I love so much, is going to have her birthday this coming September and to celebrate it I decided to have a contest. By the way, this is the first time I am conducting an online contest. All I need is to have the best and most simple birthday gift to my beloved wife.

Okay, here are a few pointers for the ideal gift:
  • We can't go out of the country.
  • We can't go out of town.
  • We have a child that is so cute and cuddly - a 4 year old boy named Ize.
  • Money is no object - hope I could say that but due to our tight budget and my company crisis, I would like to make it simple yet the best gift ever. Don't worry much about the budget - I already have a budget and I could add a few bucks
  • There are no wrong answers here - I just need ideas.
  • In case you need to know the age to base the idea, she is turning 33.
