Second Thoughts
October 4, 2007 – 5:33 amYou may know that I have been contemplating a link baiting-cum-competition blitz through a local advertorial network. Well, while I am still waiting for his reply, I am already having second thoughts. It is not that I am stingy and do not want to pay that obscene amount of money for this blitz but last night, I received a very disturbing email from David saying that he (his blog) has been penalised for the sudden surge in back links to his site with a specific keyword after his very successful contest concluded.
See, my Page Ranks are only 3 and 2. I would so love to bring them up but if this is the price I have to pay, I would rather maintain my Ranks, low as they are. I don’t know. Suddenly a blitz does not look so good anymore.
If this is the case, then I would not e running a contest. Why would something fun be turned into a sour episode? I am not going to hand out prizes AND suffer the consequences. That would be so unfair. That would be like a double whammy!
