Lowest Unique Bid Could Win You A BMW!


Time to chill out again: Just head over to the bid4prizes site and tickle yourself pink with this unique auction game where you try to offer the lowest bid for any prize. Maybe you could win a Plasma TV. Maybe an Apple iPhone. Maybe something else that's really, really cool...how about a BMW 3 series? Now you're talking!

It's cool fun and it's free for you to take part. You can pop over to the site where a video will show you how to play.

On the site, all you need to do is click on your favorite prize, key in your cell phone number and your bid in cents. There's a time limit to the bidding. Once the last click bid is done, you'll receive a text message informing you whether or not you have the lowest unique bid. You can also bid from your cell phone by sending a text message and get a reply whether you've been successful or not.

What's the amount like for the lowest unique bid?

The winning bid could be anything. A penny, or $1.05, even $500.22! Whatever is the lowest UNIQUE bid wins the prize! Remember that BMW?

Now you would like to know how much you have to cough up if you're the winning bidder. Whoa, here's the pleasant surprise. If you win, the prize is absolutely Free! They even pay for your shipping. But please check whether taxes may apply or not.

Did I play the game? Well, sad to say, I couldn't play the game because I'm not living in the U.S of A. Or Canada for that matter. But if you're a legal resident in either country then you're eligible to take part.

I would be eyeing the Apple iPhone if I'm eligible to play the game. That's a beautiful prize to grab. But hmm...that BMW's image keeps popping up in my head again!

New Feature Added To Technorati's Interface














Checked out Technorati this Saturday morning and what did I find? A surprise package.

The Technorati guys have added a new feature to the site's interface. This time you'll see something that's labelled "Authority" next to your usual ranking score as you can see on the screenshot.

My normal ranking score stands at 96,332 and the new Authority score shows 47. It doesn't show the number of incoming links anymore.

So what does that mean?

So far I couldn't find any explanation regarding this new feature. By looking at the various scores attained by some of my incoming links, I can deduce that the higher your Authority score then it's obvious the higher IS your "Authority" as a blog.

I believe we'll get to know more in the coming days about this new development at Technorati. Meanwhile, keep your fingers crossed that you'll get a higher number this time against the Authority score.

And over at Performancing, Ryan Caldwell is talking about how to diversify your links in 5 different ways.

Blockquote
It's obvious from the latest Page Rank update that Google is strongly buffering the effect of certain kinds of links. What kind of links? That's a complex question, but I think I can answer it with two words: undiversified links."

He's saying that the key to linkbuilding now is diversification. Here are his 5 pointers:

  • Stop pointing incoming links to your homepage
  • Diversify the location of your links
  • Diversify your anchor text
  • Get article level links from strong sites
  • Comment at other blogs

To comprehend these 5 pointers, go over to Caldwell's post at Performancing and read about them.
