A lot of people have been emailing me to ask if I really do have the Amex Gold Card that I promoted in my free iphone contest. I just want to post this picture to show people that I’m not lying and that I stand behind the products I promote. So, if you haven’t applied yet to receive your $250 Gift Card Bonus, what are you waiting for? Go to PinkDeals.net to check out the offer!
Other than that, the contest has been running along really smoothly and I’ve been meeting even more people than ever from around the world. A lot of people from the link train promotion have come back and are more enthusiastic than ever to enter the contest. I think it’s because the iPhone’s only been released in the United States so far, the rest of the world just doesn’t have any other way of getting their hands on them.
Anyways, my stats have been improving quite a bit. I’ve cracked 3,500 in technorati and hit all time highs in unique visitors on tuesday. Ms. Danielle reports that she’s almost cracked the Top 10 for the term “free online coupon,” but no word on “golf equipment“, yet. Other news would be that I was on Netscape’s front page for a good 10 hours, which gave me a good amount of traffic, but then some guy reported me as spam (I know who you are) and I was quickly removed! It’s ok though! The post I made for netscape got indexed by Google and it’s ranking #43 for the term “free iphone” as of today. I’m still going strong on Technorati’s WTF section having been at the top of the list for a solid 2 days now. One thing I’ve learned from being listed on there for so long is that it seems votes only have a shelf life of about 24 hours. After that, your votes start to diminish, but your rankings don’t get effected too much.
I know this is a little early for an update since it’s only been a couple of days since I started the contest, but to be honest with you, it’s become way more successful than I could have ever imagined and I wanted to share with you some important factors that made it happen. The contest is going so well, I might just stop over at the Apple Store and try to find something else to give away! Any suggestions?

[…] Mr. Gary Lee, in response to email queries, posted a picture of him holding an American Express Gold Card for all to see and then wrote about why he had to do that. The card was mentioned in his contest where he’s Giving Away a Free iPhone. Some people don’t believe anything until they see it. […]
How many visitors a day does this translate into for you Gary?
Wow you really get a free $250 giftcard for doing that offer? I am going to try it out. How long did it take to come?
That should bring the readers in. Too bad they will have to use AT&T as a carrier.
