The Directory Contest is a new competition where you list the directory contest URL (www.directorycontest.com) in your directory. The top 10 directories that appear on Google when the URL is typed in will win a prize. The closing date is February 6th 2007, 10 AM P.S.T.

The top 3 prizes are quite substantial, namely:

  • 1st Prize: $1,500 in cash
  • 2nd Prize: $400 in cash
  • 3rd Prize: $200 in cash

This is a very clever competition. The top 10 directories, the competition owners and the sponsors all gain something in this competition.

The main blog gains a vast number of backlinks from directories with virtually no effort. The sponsors gain permanent links on the site. Due to the large number of backlinks, the domain will gain a good Google Page Rank. The site will also get a large number of blog posts about it (just like this one) since its a unique competition in the directory world. The blog can then offer links on the site when Google has assigned a PR value, and they can made a nice income from that too.

With such large prizes and a simple way to enter, I strongly recommend you try your luck (and skills)!
