			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="float:right;margin:0px 0px 0px 0px;"></div><p><strong>The best blog design in the world is nothing without lots of good content. </strong>We know that we need to post often, but sometimes it&#8217;s hard to keep up. We let things slide.</p>
<p><strong>So Eric Giguere has posted a challenge on his blog:</strong> Write a page a day for every day in February. And he&#8217;ll give you a copy of his $97 best-selling book on how to make money with <a href="http://www.blogdesignjournal.com/tag/google" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag nofollow" title="Posts tagged with Google">Google</a> Adsense if you complete the challenge. </p>
<p><strong>You can&#8217;t lose with this challenge.</strong> No matter what happens, you get a lot of work done that you need to do anyway. And if you complete the challenge, you get a very nice reward. </p>
<p><strong>All you have to do is post a comment with the URL for each day&#8217;s post to Eric&#8217;s blog for that day. </strong>Doing that gives you a free backlink to your blog, which is great for <a href="http://www.blogdesignjournal.com/tag/search-engine-optimization" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag nofollow" title="Posts tagged with Search Engine Optimization">search engine optimization</a> (SEO). </p>
<p>[To clarify, you just make 29 posts in February. For each of your posts, you put a comment with a link to it in one of Eric's posts. Your dates don't have to match up exactly.]</p>
<p><strong>By the end of February, you will have 29 free backlinks</strong> from a very popular blog, which helps your <a href="http://www.blogdesignjournal.com/tag/google" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag nofollow" title="Posts tagged with Google">Google</a> PageRank. (And his blog readers will see your links and maybe click on them, which could bring you more traffic and word of mouth.) </p>
<p><strong>Plus, one lucky <a href="http://www.blogdesignjournal.com/tag/blogger" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag nofollow" title="Posts tagged with Blogger">blogger</a> will win a copy of Eric&#8217;s super-duper software</strong>, <em>PLRSiteBuilder,</em> which automates the creation of web sites built to make money with Adsense ads. How cool is that?</p>
<p><strong>You can sign up till February 8, </strong>and you have till March 10 to post the comments with links to your daily pages. Why not give it a try? See Eric&#8217;s blog, <em><a href="http://www.memwg.com">MEMWG, The Unofficial AdSense Blog</a></em>, to sign up. </p>
<p><strong>If you don&#8217;t want to take the challenge,</strong> I recommend reading Eric&#8217;s blog anyway, because it&#8217;s an excellent blog on how to make money with <strong>your</strong> blog&#8212;and that&#8217;s a good thing, too.</p>
