		<description>@Justin &amp; @Asif - totally agree on the social media front.  For my article &quot;You Know You Work in Search When&quot;  I worked a couple SM channels pretty hard including twitter, dzone, su, fb, linkedin, etc but  I didn&#039;t really bother with a link building strategy like a good seo should (and I&#039;m normally a good SEO:-).</description>

		<description>@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 :-)

		<description>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&#039;t a lot of time.

		<description>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.
