Okay, so now that the contest is underway, I want to make sure everyone knows the terms of the deal:
The contest ends on July 14th at 8AM EST, when I will check Google Analytics for your referral counts.
There are many numbers that will be taken into consideration to make sure the contest is fair. I want to make sure that the numbers I'm getting aren't just from one person click-click-clicking away. I will be looking at unique visitors, return visitors, bounce rates, and pages per visit.
As stated in the previous post, the winner gets a few neat things for their hard work. You will receive a special award in the picture format of your choice with your website's name on it for posting on your front page. You will also get a special bump space on my sidebar highly praising you for your efforts and sheer awesomeness.
It's a crazy-close race.
All I will tell you is that the list isn't the same from yesterday. Only one person is in the same spot as before, there is a new blog on the list (which means someone was knocked off), and there is a new #1 for today (sorry, Livin, that means you were knocked down in the rankings). But that is just looking at sheer numbers right now. I won't take into account all of the qualitative data until the final tally.
I created the award today, and if I feel generous I may post what it looks like before the contest ends. But for now - it's for me to know and you to find out. If this is something people actually get excited about, I may do a monthly thing.
Note to Self: In all seriousness, I do want to thank all the cool websites out there who refer traffic to me - including Police Wives Online, who is actually the largest contributer to my site traffic in sheer numbers. Thanks!

my one fault is that I'm uber competitive...
That picture is mine. I can taste it.

CM - You better jump on it girl! You know I'd love to give you the award, but you gotta win it fair and square. : )
