Well in the spirit of the trend started by Jason of Gorilla Sushi and following the controversy created by Sam the Self Proclaimed Internet (myspace spammer) marketer of somewhere.blogspot.com. Can’t put the link because Sam is afraid of the mighty wraith of Google and what a few links on a single blog page may do. I also removed Sam’s link from the grid. So for everyone but Sam, here is a little Gorilla Link Love.

I have reposted the mighty page of entrecard widget cards. If you are an entrecard user and you have a link on the following page then you should re-post it too. This is one of the best examples of viral linking I’ve seen. Some may call it a link farm page, but its not really.

Its a way for everyone who participates to increase the Technorati rank of all blogs in the system.This in turn should increase the traffic to those sites which in turn will mean more effective advertising for people in the Entrecard system. The more its posted the better it is for everyone.

I had to name this action Gorilla Linking instead of Viral Linking or Link Bait or what ever you choose to call the practice, that most if not all A-list bloggers participate in, in honor of Jason’s excellent idea. If you want more traffic then take a few minutes and post this huge list of images on your own blog. By the way there is nothing, but a huge 1300( well 1299 now that I took out Sam’s image) of images pointing to all the blogs in the Entrecard system at the time the grid was built below the more link. Open it if you want, but it may take a while to load.

I was not planning on making any posts today. I’m recovering from the morning Christmas present opening and food we consumed around here. Since things are now calming down a little I figured I would jump on the net and catch up on some email. Well I came across a post from Toni about what she wants for Christmas and decide to throw up a quick post. Toni posted a cute little Video about how she wants 100 new subscribers for Christmas and there are some Dolls in the Video you may recognize.

I subscribe to Toni’s blog and she shares some interesting insights from time to time. So you may want to check out her blog and the funny Video. Of course you can always subscribe here too. I won’t get mad

Well thanks to everyone who participated in the 1000 Entrecard Credits up for grabs contest. There where quite a few entries and I personally think the contest was a success. I’ve gained several backlinks as a result of this contest and I’ve seen a jump in traffic and my Technorati authority.

Overall, I feel good about giving away the credits to the following participants.

1st Place — Nick Throlson wins the 500 credit prize.

2nd Place –  Andy wins the 300 credit prize.

3rd Place — Quwen Quiola Qyiz wins the 200 Credit Prize.

Winners where chosen at random by placing their respected entries in a bucket and drawing out the three names. I’ll be sending out the credits right after I publish this post.

Thanks again to everyone that participated and I will be adding links to everyone’s blogs on my resources page in a couple of days. I need to spend some time with the family since its Christmas so I won’t have time to update the page until later on in the week. Don’t know why I decided to end a contest on Christmas Eve. That was pretty stupid of me, but it was still smart to hold the contest.

Merry Christmas to everyone and I’m sure I will be holding more of these type contests in the future. Might even cough up some real money for prizes.
