Damn. Novel idea. Maybe I'll try an SEO contest some day. But if I do I'd definitely want some bozo to counter offer me to stir up some controversy.

My mother-in-law could use a nice notebook like that. Hmmmmmmmm.

At least this one won't be competing for the same phrase, will it? Erm jadibones?

John, I bet you can turn the Webguerrilla stir-up into a good thing. After all, this was (partly) about publicity....

Yeah, seriously... if I held a contest I would have someone waiting in the wings to counter offer, stir up controversy, make sure you get your money's worth in publicity lol. John, if I were you, I'd be thanking WebG.

I do thank him. It's bigger than I ever imagined now, with many SEO blogs and SEO news sites reporting on it. In fact I stated on v7n that I wish I could have nominated him for member of the year.
