There are only a few weeks left in the contest, and things have gotten pretty quiet. At this point, it would be extremely difficult to break into the ranks of the top 10 and have a serious chance at winning the prize. Only someone with some seriously high powered websites would be able to do so.
Thus, with the contestants relatively well established, I know that it is only a matter of time before the last minute deal making begins. People will negotiate for last minute links and possibly redirects. Right now the leading official contestant is still Eric Blackwell’s team, and he has offered one more spot on the team to whoever makes the largest contribution before the end of the contest. However, ironically Ardell’s controversial entry is back at the #1 ranking at the moment.
