Although being an avid reader of Teamliquid, this is indeed my first post and topic in the forum, and yes, it is a nerve-racking experience. :o I come here in a time of need that I am sure you guys can easily help out with. :D Here's the situation:
There's a certain computer apps class at my school, and the project is simple: - Get as many hits to your website - Get as many different countries' visiting to your website
It comes in two seperate grades: The person with the most hits gets a 100, and the next person gets a 99, and so on. The person with the most countries gets a 100, and the next person gets a 99, and so on.
So, if I come in 3rd place in hits and 4th place in countries, I'll get a 97 and a 96.
The program that we're using to record the data is web-stat.com. A "hit" is basically a visit that had at least a 30min interval before my previous visit.
The aim of this project is to use search engine optimization and advertisement to get as many hits, but I'm sure you guys have much more experience in this matter than I do. Infact, I've been writing stories about my girlfriend on my website to attract visitors, and it's been going okay...
Now, I could simply ask you kind people to "win the internet" (an easy task for TeamLiquid) and visit my website, (tempting ) but a few tips on how to optimize traffic and such would be very appreciated!
Well, if you're curious or you're wondering who I am, the website is here: + Show Spoiler +
----------------------------------------------------- UPDATE: All my results have been turned in! Thanks for everyone who clicked and gave tips; you guys surely helped my grade tremendously Of course, there is no further need to visit, but I will maintain the site for a few more weeks at least! Thanks again to all
i guess you could spam it on 4chan and other high traffic sites and hope a lot of people click on it....but something bad might happen to your site if it does; i don't know what, but shit is bound to happen when its associated with 4chan.
I'll put an iframe linking to your site on the bottom of my site, http://vilegaming.com , for the next few hours.. that should get you a couple hundred to a thousand unique hits, and 5x that number for hits.

yeah you have no idea how many missiles he's got to dodge before reaching it. (comment for purely comical reasons, maybe bad taste)
Anyway we could use a proxy to simulate we are from nigeria and other random shitty countries?
to OP, I think you should re do your page the day before the results (because you will obviously win) and just write "I won the internet bitches!" in giant font on the page. This shows confidence. PS- post the page in as many 4chan threads and ebaumsworld threads as you can.

Me too.
You're lucky is this a college class or what? I'm sure TL will help you a ton in terms of number of different countries and also will help a bit in total # of visits although i'm not sure what scale to expect to TL's impact could be huge or small I guess. I bet it'll help you a lot though.
Me visiting that website, must be like the only one from my country, or maybe not. But still. It was kind of entertaining to read the first blog entry, I'll see if I can get myself to read the other ~~ seems pretty long.
I'm sure your teacher will be impressed by Bahrain because he sure will have no fucking idea if it even exists. Good luck, you will win with a land slide. TL>Internet in really small events and events that don't require registration.

many many many many many many many many many many thanks to you !
Are you graded on unique hits or general hits? If it is the second, then I can put like 100 iframes in the footer instead of the 1.
i just told everyone i knew to tell everyone they know... and as long as there's a 30min interval before the last visit, the same IP address can count twice so I guess people just came back :/
same deal here, i was half expecting something like "all girls are attracted to me, how do i stop this" but then i remember his is TL so i clicked for support
I didn't read all of it but I thought it was pretty good Btw, I can't believe you're only 16, we're the same age but you look alot more mature, you look like you're ~18

God damn it, you put the helicopter game on your site. There goes the next 2 hours of my life trying to break 6,000 -_-. I hope you have fun with your 100% though :D!
and it must take miracles to actually have these countries to click on your blog legitimately, I mean, some of them I didn't even know existed until just now...:
I have to say the title of your site is what impressed me most. It reminded me of Peter Sinfield's website Song Soup on Sea. You deserve to massacre your class on this alone.
Well I woke up today, went to my website, and bam, 2500+ Seriously, I owe you guys a lot and I'm pretty sure the money's in the bag Thanks to everyone who helped out! And you guys did rape the countries part...

"To be brutally honest, appeal was absent when I first met her." and then you go on and on about how awesome she was from the moment you first saw her. im confused

I bet its not gonna be close, especially in countries.
wow haha im at my girlfriends house and i just checked the site amazing and yes, iceland gave me the 80 countries and collegeboard, basically i was attracted to her but i disliked her when i first met her, my writing not really explain that too well :/ many thanks again guys
also, i didnt read any of the 9pages, but dont write about your GF, that sucks and just show you like a weak inlove girl-dependant fag ;d, and is the other part where you can be target from 4chan or some other Psycho-board (have in mind you are in a competition, not everyone will be fair and lovely)...use some camuflage, make some nicknames, dont post so much pictures. etc

edit: Venezuelan represent :p
haha dont worry the whole story thing is to attract hits from people i know, since they will be curious about me more than random internet people and as for competition...i think ive already won the class with some extra help eh idc about random internet people attacking me; the site will be deleted in about a week or so anyway :/
the tower defense game really hooked me almost mastered medium mode but however I shift the towerlayout always at least two units come through (made a couple 5250+ finishes on medium). And hard really is hard. Anyone has an idea how to win this or come far even? :D I either get overrun by a dark wave or a flight wave. I also miss a concept on how to implement the powerup-tower on hardmode well.
a little update: i turned my hits and countries in today, and although my teacher didnt say it i could tell he was a bit shocked im not sure what place i came in, since he didnt reveal the other people's scores yet, but im pretty first im 1/2 thanks a bunch guys again
The program that we're using to record the data is web-stat.com. A "hit" is basically a visit that had at least a 30min interval before my previous visit
it's just temping to use 10 30 differnet proxys in a brower to check your website every 31 mins then isn't it lol
I liked the helicopter game although I got bored at about 2k... Post some more in your blog! And did the caption's get removed from the pictures? I don't see them anymore.
