YugaTech Great Gadget Giveaway

Yet another internet contest!
Join now!

To quote Yugatech's blog:

Starting this week, we’ll be doing a series of different contests for our “YugaTech Great Gadget Giveaway” with a major theme around it. It will be really simple and have easy mechanics. Our contest for this week is called “Merry Tweetmas”.

Round 1: Our theme for this week will be Twitter. Here’s the mechanics:

1) Follow @abeolandres and @talk2globe on Twitter.
2) Post a tweet “Just entered to win a Modu Phone. Quick! Go follow @abeolandres and @talk2globe and retweet: http://bit.ly/6e2q7O #thanks2yugatech”

We’re giving away a Modu phone, 10 Globe Tattoo and 20 Php500 prepaid call cards randomly. That’s 31 winners in all for the Twitter giveaway.

If you don’t have a Twitter account but own a blog, here’s another way for you to join in this week’s giveaways:

1) Blog about the “YugaTech Great Gadget Giveaway”. Include the photo I posted here and link to the contest page.
2) Don’t forget to include in your post the mechanics for the Twitter contest above.
3) Leave a comment here with the URL of your entry.

For this one, we’ll give away another Modu phone, 10 Globe Tattoo and 10 prepaid load cards worth Php500 each. That’s 21 additional winners for a total of 52 winners this week.
Lastly, for our YugaTech readers who don’t Twitter or blog, here’s one for you:

1) Leave a comment on this contest page with the answer to this question — “If you’re stuck in an island with a phone and only have one call left, who would you call and why?“.

Ten most witty or creative answers will each win Php500 worth of prepaid load cards from Globe.
You can join in any of the 3 separate giveaways above but you can only win once for this round. If you win twice or on all 3, you get the bigger prize.
That’s a total of 62 lucky winners this week alone. This is just to warm you up for that grand prize. Go and start spreading the word!
Our giveaways won’t be this huge if not for our sponsors. Go thank Globe in your own little way.
Note: Anyone can join in the contests as many times since we’ll have more rounds in the coming weeks and months. Items will be shipped anywhere in the Philippines for free.




 

What is Clypidus?

Clypidus is an SEO contest.
And I'm wondering why I'm not winning it.

On a basic note, Clypidus is nothing. That's right, Clypidus means nothing and is an exactly new word. It is just a random phrase decided by the person who started the contest at his blog. The reason why he chose a random phrase instead of an existing word was because ranking for an existing word might prove to be a little difficult.

Hence, according to google search results the competition began with exact 0 competition. That is, google showing that the search you have input might be mis-spelt. By now, the word Clypidus shows about 27 search results which will only increase with time. So this post was to cover what basically Clypidus is.

Why am I not in Clypidus?

Just asking google.com why in the world am i not included in their search list? hello, google!
clypidus!
clypidus!
clypidus!

Father of Clypidus

Clypidus.

It's Andrey's brain child.

It's his SEO-Contest where you can win 25,000 EC just for appearing first in google :

Clypidus -- SEO contest. Win 25.000 entrecard credits!

I always wanted to start SEO (search engine optimisation) contest. Now I have opportunity to start one.

Would you like to win 25.000 ECs? Yes, twenty five thousand Entrecard Credits!

To win you have to make your blog visible on the first line of search results on Google.com. Search word is “clypidus”. It is a word that doesn’t exist, it is not a trademark or something. So you do not promote any product. It’s pure SEO! SEO for a brand new search word niche. Right now not a single site appears in the search results.
What you can do to promote your site: anything! But remember, that only real search results are taken in consideration, no paid links on Google are counted though you can spend money to promote your site. The winner will be found simply: by clicking this simple link: http://www.google.com/search?&q=Clypidus on 1st of August 2009.
Clear?
Have fun promoting your blog! I hope that every Monday I would write reports on what happens on Google :-)
There is "one must". If you are promoting your blog by "clypidus" search word, you should mention this very post: :-)
2nd and 3rd prizes available :-)

Impressive.
Not the EC's, but the challenge to be number one in the google search.
