We've all heard about Wikipedia.org, the free online encyclopedia where topics are created, researched, shared and edited by numbers of interested individuals. Can you place a link of your website on a Wikipedia.org page? It has a high page rank and would most certainly help bring traffic to your site. But don't be surprised if it gets deleted one day. I've placed my martial arts school website link on a Wikipedia.org page and so far so good.
Now if you really want control and sole ownership of your wiki then The Million Dollar Wiki is the answer. Created by Graham Langdon, a 21 year old senior from the University of Connecticut, the content on each page is controlled by the page owner. Owners use the site, and specifically their page, as a vehicle to generate traffic, revenue or publicity. Each page costs $100 and Graham plans to sell 10,000 pages so he can make his million bucks. Graham is off to a good start with the project. Since starting it two months ago, he has sold 158 pages and made $15,800.
One of my favorite blogs, John Chow dot Com, is holding a million dollar wiki blog contest, sponsored by The Million Dollar Wiki.
