See below, how important this is.

5. If you would like to qualify for the PRIZE PACKAGE, please add our Badge, Logo, or Link of the Ning Directory to your Ning Network. (NOT REQUIRED!)

Why are these steps important? Google just about any of our Group Category titles, with the words Ning Directory. For example: Art Ning Directory, Marketing Ning Directory, Spiritual Ning Directory, etc…You will see quickly why taking these steps, are so important. Try different combinations of our Category titles like: Art Directory Ning. You simply won’t believe the results. Don’t let this opportunity pass you up. This is your FREE way to help optimize your Ning Networks. By adding our link or badge to your sites, you help the Ning Directory - - which in the end, helps you!

Are you dying to see what the PRIZE PACKAGE is all about?!

To elaborate a little more on the importance of these steps:

In reference to valuable keywords listed on Google, for the Ning Directory: the keyword list goes on and on…Think about it. There are over 1,000,000 Ning Networks. You were savvy enough to have listed YOURS on the Ning Directory. This means that 1000+ of all Ning Networks are getting this special attention. But, the way you make sure YOUR NING NETWORK is included in this special attention: follow the suggested steps above. What other way can you accomplish all this?

I have a plan. The plan is working. I don’t want anyone to be left out. So, I’M GIVING STUFF AWAY! ;-)

WHO WINS THE PRIZE PACKAGE?! On June 7, 2009, with the use of a ‘Random Number Selector Program‘, we will randomly select 1 member from this Group.

The lucky member will be awarded an awesome package of prizes.

PRIZE PACKAGE!

• 1 Custom Ning Network Theme/Layout - total customization of your Ning Network look and feel. (300.00-500.00 value). If you win and do not want the customization, you will still receive all other prizes in the package. I will randomly select another member from the Group, for Customization Prize.
• 1 Featured Member Spot for 6 months! (guaranteed home page spot) 120.00 value
• 1 Gold Member Spot for 6 months! (120.00 value)

Here are some more good reasons to optimize your Networks, via the Ning Directory. Google these search word combinations:

Ning Directory

Ning Networks - (This one blew me away! I will do everything possible to maintain this keyword.)

Directory of Ning

free ning scripts (for our 3^rd party members)

Ning scripts (shows importance of Classifieds)

Ning add ons (3^rd party)

social community directory (this is huge!)

list of ning networks

Find Ning Networks

Note: most keywords deliver very similar results, whether you use upper or lowercase. I think most searchers, use all lowercase.

You should see even a small percentage, of the search word combinations that don’t have the word Ning in the search. It’s fantastic!
