A New Zealand only SEO Competition

pA Search Engine Optimisation competition is happening in Aotearoa New Zealand from 19 August 2010 to 28 November 2010. On the 19 August 2010, domains are 1st able to be bought. On 31 August 2010 the 2 word search phrase is made known, and on 28 November 2010 the winner will be the 1st New Zealand resident entrant to get their .co.nz url to the top of Google New Zealand for the search phrase./p
pThe prizes are minor compared to the work required to get top ranked. But they are enough to make for a valid challenge. The prize is a media package with the NZ Company Swaytech, and a mobile marketing package with the text messaging Company texsys. But the most advantage is the marketing received from being the top for the phrase, and the publicity and contacts gained from the journey./p
pSearchMasters are a top ranking Australasian a href=http://www.searchmasters.co.nz target=_blankSearch Engine Optimisation/a firm that has started up the domain name nzseochallenge.co.nz for their entry into the a href=http://www.nzseochallenge.co.nz/ target=_blankSearch Engine Optimisation Competition/a. Who will be able to prevail in the links war? Who will get the most out of social media marketing? Who will be able to drum up enough NZ and Worldwide backing for linking using their networks of clients and friends, and newfound acquaintances found via the social media networks./p
pSearchMasterss shareholder M Brandon participated in one of the worlds first major SEO challenges Nigritude Ultramarine with his companies dining website Time2Dine.co.nz. He managed a commendable top 10 placement by the completion of the competition. Search on Google for the phrase even now, and you will see the Time2Dine website ranking top 5./p
pIt will also be of interest to find out how many links and how quick is too fast for inbound link creation. At the initial stage before 31 Aug 2010 the search phrase is unannounced, but its a great time to build any new inbound links and so get some website age started. Better to build with the competition phrase on top of a pre-existing foundation of ANY links, than start from zip on the 31 August 2010./p
pWhen to ask acquaintances for links is also a good puzzle to solve./p
pAnother effort is being able to put in yet another thing into ones frenetic schedule. How much time should one give to social networking and inbound linking work. And how much time to looking after rankings for ones own flagship website and clients websites like the Drive NZs a href=http://www.drivenz.co.nz target=_blankCar Rentals New Zealand/a business. Check out their car hire for your familys New Zealand holiday.Work must go on./p
