If you haven’t heard of this blog yet, you’ve been living under a rock! WinningTheWeb.comis the king of contests. If you remember before Christmas Gyutae held the a very popular contest and gave away a free review to JohnChow.com, and JohnCow.com. I wish I would have thought of the idea, as it was a great one! You had to subscribe to be able to win the reviews, so he was gaining valuable subscribers and plenty of traffic from the buzz it created. Then he created a contest between him and Tyler Cruz. For this one, if you wanted to enter you had to write a post and vote for one of the two. In the post, you needed to link back to both the blogs however. This gained tons of backlinks for both of the blogs. Whoever had the most votes won and the loser had to pay $100 to three random people who voted for the winning blog. I happend to be one of those $100 winners. I am writing this review to enter another contest he is running, so check it out:
The sites design is very clean and easily navigated. If you notice on the sidebar, he has eight spots for advertising. (I am one of them) He only displays excerpts of his posts on the homepage, allowing more posts to be seen and more pageviews for him. Gyutea is obviously looking to monetize his blog, as he is running Kontera and has plenty of room for advertising.
The content from this blog is amazing! Very well written, long informative posts. If you are looking to get into internet marketing, subscribe to WinningTheWeb.com. Here are a couple of my favorites:
