Right now I’m deciding to get rid of the spam on my forum. Even though I have not been doing it for a while. I see what is happening to DP and think it’s time to out some of the people. This may never do anything good, but just for the heck of it, I will below list the IP addresses from spammers and also link to the spam post on my forum:

202.153.33.72
210.210.37.41
61.17.90.253

Many more to come, but if anything comes out of it, maybe some forum owners will be able to check this list in the future and be able to prevent their moderators from getting too much extra work.

I have just added a Contests Directory and will be adding many more sub categories. The site itself gets a nice amount of traffic for many contest related terms such as Contest Directory and many, many more.
So if you are running a contest and want to promote it, you can submit the official contest page and get a permanent listing for only $10.00
If you buy a permanent featured listing for $80.00, you will also be listed on the

Index of Contests.
So what are you waiting for?
If you want to reach people with your contest, this is the place to promote it!

I have started a new thread on the official vBulletin forums in order to get some more people involved. Feel free to post and encourage them to get it done.
Here is the thread.
Here you can Digg it

I find it amazing how many real estate directories out there have basically shut down for submissions and still get a lot of backlinks from site owners who most likely blame themselves for not doing something right. I have listed some of them on my forum and will continue to do so. If you know of any, post them as well.
They always seem to have the links code to themselves working and the adsense up as well.
No wonder some of them rank so high in Google. Must be nice getting paid for doing nothing and still rising in the SERPs due to their little scheme to get more backlinks without adding your site.

Here are some of them …

It was called New Hoo, but when Netscape acquired it, they renamed it.

This is due to the ban of a lot of real estate related websites. Many are blaming the excessive link exchanges that have been going on. It worked for quite some time, now it seems like Google is not so fond of it. Here you can read more and see the multitude of real estate webmasters getting rid of their so called “state pages”, the mini directories many of them had in order to gain higher rankings. Check it out …

I just went to Digg and saw a story called Man Picking Nose on Google Maps Street View.
This may be funny, but how about protecting people’s privacy. What about being able to read people’s passwords? Will you be able to see people use their atm machines, lurk thru a window of an internet cafe and be able to read their passwords to their email, paypal and so on? There are many who have mastered the art of reading people’s lips when speaking. Well, we are not at the point yet where you can see people as on TV, right? But you are able to see a lot and I believe that a lot of what you can see can be VERY damaging.

Really? Well according to this blog post by Tom he is trying to fight spam which has been getting out of control lately. If you dig it, then Digg it.

Just made more daily listings available on frogengine.com You can buy them now!

If you have a real estate related article, I want it here. Let me know in this thread.
