   Here is an order in terms of Total Bitly Traffic:

   15 Things I Wish I Had Known When I Started as an Internet Marketer = Total Bitly Traffic 2,026

   How to Write Hundreds of Unique Articles from One Article with MS Excel – Article Theme Versioning = Total Bitly Traffic 2,289

   You Know You Work In Search When You… = Total Bitly Traffic 1,842

   9 SEO Tips for Attractive Search Engine Friendly Web Design = Total Bitly Traffic 808

   Holistic Online Marketing = Total Bitly Traffic 707

   These articles have more Bitly Traffic than other posts. Looks like Social Media Marketing (SMM) is the winner.

   woot!, good to finally see the finalists
   glad to be included with a solid group of articles

   Thanks for the great contest Andy

   @Asif

   Yeah, social traffic seemed to be a huge factor. I tried to target some organic traffic, but 1 month isn’t a lot of time.

   @Justin organic traffic is good in the long run. But, for one month, getting organic traffic is not possible. So, should this still be called SEM Contest

   Awesome, happy to see I made the top 5. The judges Holistic Online Marketing are going to Holistic Online Marketing have a hard time Holistic Online Marketing deciding which article Holistic Online Marketing to choose. I Holistic Online Marketing hope mine wins.
   I think Holistic Online Marketing my next article will be on subliminal advertising.
   Good Luck to everyone!

   @Justin & @Asif – totally agree on the social media front. For my article “You Know You Work in Search When” I worked a couple SM channels pretty hard including twitter, dzone, su, fb, linkedin, etc but I didn’t really bother with a link building strategy like a good seo should (and I’m normally a good SEO:-).
