Chance to Win a FREE Nintendo Wii

Today’s money tip is: How to win a Free Nintendo Wii. Yes! Free one! If you do what I told you here, you will get a chance to win the Wii. But at the same time, you are reducing my chance to win the Wii too, which I don’t care. Anyway, there is only one free Nintendo Wii offered by Darin who blog about Search Engine Marketing. As published on 22^nd May, 2007 there are only 10 reviews being written on Darin blog. After checking at the post trackback links, I found that there are about 34 reviews written so far. My chance of winning the Wii is 1 out of 35 – 2.86%. If finally there are another 35 participants, my chances will be reduced by half. I feel that there is actually not much difference between 1.43% and 2.86%. Both chances are considered very slim. However, it is still worth the effort because you will be getting a link back from Darin anyway for doing the review. Darin promised that he will randomly draw a reviewer on 11^th June 2007 as the Wii winner.

Ok, enough for the freebie tips. Now let’s look at what Darin offer on his blog.

At the point of writing, Darin.CC is ranked 151,871 by Alexa, having Google Pagerank 2, with 94 feed subscribers and ranked 60,384 at Technorati.

What annoy me at Darin.cc?

Darin, I suggest that you ban the “shoot the paparazzi” ad from showing up at your blog. I am fine with the animation. But the camera shooting sounds are really annoying. Instead of turning off my speakers, I prefer to shut down the page. There are probably many of your readers will do the same thing too.

There are also many pop up ads. I thought they are outdated kind of online advertising method. My browser is set to block all the pop up.

What I like about Darin.cc?

Darin is generous when giving advice on search engine marketing. He wrote a series on Pay Per Click Management, which guide you how to manage your account, how to build your keywords effectively and how to maximize the result with advance match. If you want to save your budget of online advertising, make sure you check out Darin’s Pay Per Click Management series to effectively design your ad.

Darin wrote a few “how to” articles such as How To Use Digg, three solid Gmail productivity tips

free website traffic in 90 minutes, How to – Escape Google’s Supplemental Index. I wish to see more of these because people really love to learn something. These are the post that will probably get linked.  

My favourite category at Darin.cc is the SEO posts. Most of them are short and straight to the point, which is what I like to read often. Most readers just want the main points and steps to get things done.

If you want to learn how to promote your blogs, pay Darin.cc a visit. I am sure that you will get something from Darin.
