Response To Contest Comments

Posted by Ruck in February 1st 2008

Just a short video over the comments during this past January last day contest. Keep in my mind that all of them were great and pick even more than I was going to initially. I appreciate all responses and hopefully the readers do to. In case you forgot the February Contest is underway starting today. I will be dishing out another $875 if the blog meets the goals. Looking at it right now we only need 125 more subscribers. That's about 4-5 subscribers per day average. My guess is the wallet will be thinner come the 28th. Top Commentators contest is underway as well!

Thanks again Ruck. It was exciting to here my name on the vid.
Not all of emails were asking for free help :)
In one of the emails I sent you I pointed out a mistake I found that you would likely want to address..I won’t post it here but if you want to know…I’ll fire off another email….
Are winners of this contest still eligible for the Feb contest? It won’t change how I do things but just checking…

Everyone is eligible for the February contest. This is cash I have made online that I am handing out for fun. Sure it increases blog traffic and all that good jive but you dont see many firing up any ads..(Ha not yet anyway) lol, but hey if these contests get people involved and people start taking action then this time next year I might be on your blog participating in your contest :) BTW - If it was the webpage mistake on another site I caught it, I appreciate that :)

@ Cyrus- Wasn’t sure so tried to include he/she. Would have been $100 if Paypal didnt have to have their cheese.

Hey Ruck-great video, and again, thanks for the prize. It is officially my first online earnings–yippee! Now, when my husband asks if I have made any money yet, I can FINALLY say yes.

I am fired up about my first site and now that I have figured out the link thing, I hope to have all the links in it by tomorrow, so I can start marketing it.

Actually, I joined your forum the first day it opened…on 12/19. I check in at your blog everyday, and was looking forward to your forum. I like that you keep the focus on learning, and the drama to a minimum…although I must admit the drama can be entertaining, but I digress.

Thanks again and keep up the good fight!

Yea dont worry Rare, there’s plenty more to come. I did it on impulse since it was the last day of the month and had not shot any money out there. Still February has a couple of contests going on and who knows what could be in store :)

Hey Ruck, thanks for your kind comments on, er… my comments, and that $100 prize has already been invested on a couple of more domains and a months classified on eBay.

By the end of 2008 your readership and rss subscribers will be in the thousands and you wanna know why? It’s because you’re so much like us, your readers. People can relate to your message and writing style and most of all your very powerful story of how you became what you are today and how you’ve not forgotten where you came from.

As a subscriber, participant and a student you can’t get this feeling of belonging anywhere else Ruck. I’ve visited hundreds of blogs and forums and nowhere else have I felt such connection with the author and so much at home.

Here’s to 2008 Ruck!

Lol…BTTB…now that WAS shitty.

Can’t waste time. That’s why I’m limiting myself to this forum, TWF, and BHW.

Limiting time on the forums and blogs is very important. You should make sure you accomplish your money making task for the day prior to doing anything else online. You’ll find much greater satisfaction at the end of the day knowing you at least accomplished a goal.

Ruck,

Thanks again for the prize. I did have my text set to wrap a round and thats why it came out double spaced. Sorry for that.

For anyone who is interested, my pen name comes from the move “Disclosure” its well worth watching. (Check the e-mail subplot ) The hero is rope-a-doped into chasing the wrong issue and almost misses the real issue. Some of the high tech in it appears old now. Watch it for the strategies involved.

I also am mail. Thanks for the reference on the video. I’ll keep you posted, because I really meant what I said.
