Hallelujah! The time has arrived. DSWM is DONE. Yes I’ve said it before and now again, for the final time. There will be no more “official” posts on this blog ever again.

The comments are closed on all posts except the last couple; those will close on their own in about two weeks.

EVERYTHING has been copied over to DennisEdell.com…posts, pages, comments, custom fields, categories, and tags; all of it.

It’s all sitting in draft mode waiting to be republished one by one.

This is an awesome strategy for both of us! I get to do the SEO correctly on each post right from the jump, and you get a second chance to view articles you may have missed the first time around. OR an opportunity to add more insight to posts you may have already commented on here.

Hey everyone, I thought this was a pretty cool weekend type post, as most will have more time to look things over. I hope no one minds getting this; I’m simply helping a friend…actually helping a friend who’s helping a friend…

My friend Alan from Replace Your Salary is helping his friend Tanny sell her home business site by spreading the word. I don’t know Tanny, but I have known Alan for some time and I’m a firm advocate for marketers/bloggers doing right by the same.

Long story short - Alan’s post on the sale is here, and the actual auction is here.  Pay close attention to the stats; I don’t know much about site sales, but the numbers do look like a steal for the right buyer .

Spur of the moment contest to write the best review of this blog that you can! I realize I recently held a blog review contest featuring my other two blogs. That was primarily for promotional purposes as they were brand new blogs. Now I want reviews of this blog. Although it will be good promotion, that is not my primary reason; I’ll explain…

If you’ve read my past several posts, you now know that I am taking somewhat of a writing break to work on the inside and outside of all 3 of my blogs…this will take concentration. I’ll be starting with inside work first - SEO type stuff; cleaning up tags, keywords, links, etc., and this should take some time.

Notice the specific name of the contest, The Best “Blog Improvement Review” Contest. Yep that’s right. You write the honest review as you would with any, but, you focus primarily on what you think needs improving/updating/revising/revamping, whatever. Inside and out; assuming you can tell from the outside what needs to be done inside.

Final post - Last Warning. Including today there are 8 days left in the best blog review contest. It ends the 31st.

A word of advice - do not be fooled by the number of comments on the contest posts. In reality there are only a (small) handful of viable contestants and a TON OF CASH AND PRIZES to be given away…..hopefully.

It’s still WIDE OPEN and VERY EASY to enter. Go for it!

Dennis

I’ll make this quick. Due to the utter lack of participation thus far, I am extending the contest to the end of the month…the 31st. I have far too many gracious sponsors and prizes for the handful (or less) of people so far participating. Thank you btw .

Below you see I have copy/pasted everything from the original post…. including the excruciatingly simple rules. To be quite frank, the ONLY ones that can consider this even remotely “not worth it” or similar, are those already getting $100+ for a blog review on a regular basis…

Show of hands? Hmm…

The Contest:

It’s pretty straight forward. My other two blogs; DennisEdell.com & EasyCashContests.com are brand new, and you are to write the best review you can for both (1 post/2 reviews).

Hello and HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!

OK that takes care of the mandatory new year post, so lets get to the good stuff! As you know by now (or maybe you don’t), this is the first of 12 Top Commenter Contests. The Wordpress plugin is in and working fantabulously! (Although the tweaking took me to nearly 2am, but I digress).

Prizes from me and looking for sponsors:

Each and every month I am personally putting forth a minimum $10 via Paypal (including pp fees & possibly more cash/stuff).

I am also always on the hunt for contest sponsors. You can sponsor 1-2-3…up to all 12 months! (Say it with me now…..E-X-P-O-S-U-R-E) This will also give opportunities for multiple winners. Contact me.

I’m VERY HAPPY to announce we already have one sponsor for this month! Damn that was fast, huh? There is value in contest sponsorship folks .

YES a special super-duper treat for my regular readers and especially email subscribers. A Top Commenter plugin prominently displayed and cash contests (possibly more) every month!

A bunch of you have wondered and asked why I haven’t installed the plugin before now (especially since link love seems to be my thing). The fact of the matter is, I’ve held off for a while to be sure I had what I consider to be consistent/decent traffic.

Seriously, top commenter contests are a little, well…..lame, with 20 subscribers and 50 visitors per week; don’tcha think?

I will be having a top commenter contest every month starting on the 1st of each month, starting Thursday, January 1st. Just easier that way, ain’t it? Makes sense to me .

I’ve extended the contest an extra 2 weeks; Good Luck!

Hello everyone! I know many of you have been eagerly awaiting this for a couple weeks, so lets get right into it!

The Contest:

It’s pretty straight forward. My other two blogs; DennisEdell.com & EasyCashContests.com are brand new, and you are to write the best review you can for both (1 post/2 reviews).

Here’s the kicker to make it interesting…..since both blogs are so new, you must rely on only your ingenuity, creativity, and the individual “About Me” pages on each blog. I’m NOT looking for “cheerleaders” or a “plug” as they say, I want honest reviews. If you do find anything “wrong”, then add it. However you must also add your thoughts on how to “fix” the issue(s). Ex: if you don’t like the colors, suggest new ones.

Just a quickie post today to ask a simple question; Are you looking for more exposure?

Well, I plan to promote the upcoming contest to provide MASSIVE amounts of exposure for all involved. Read the original post looking for sponsors, and all will become clear. So far, we are doing quite well with Cash, Advertising, Ebooks and more; coming in by both comments and email!

I want more. As much as possible. I want a nice BIG contest with MULTIPLE winners! Don’t you? The contest will take off Monday the 15th, so get your offers in now! This is your final warning .

Oh btw, be sure not to miss the extra tasty bonus at the end of the post .

Thanks!
Dennis

Update: This sponsorship program is starting to take off! In the interest of making this as BIG as possible for all involved, I will be accepting sponsors for TWO weeks instead of one, then running the actual contest for two weeks instead of three.

All you generous people, step on up; it all leads to more EXPOSURE for YOU!

Also, be sure to check out the extra tasty bonus below and start pimpin this page.

Just to be extra clear - this is not the contest, I’m just looking for sponsors for the next week.

————————————

From December 8th 15th through the 31st I’m going to be holding a special blog contest; one that should get plenty of exposure . It will be paid out the first week in January.
