Coolest Guy Internet Update

So on Friday I posted a video called coolest guy on the Internet and I must apologise if it seemed somewhat random.

See the thing is we’re running a little competition within the MIH Group in which we’re trying to see if we can rank number one on Google for the search term coolest guy on the Internet.

The competition is a short one that won’t last very long and in due course I’ll post my techniques and other strategies and evaluate where and how I performed. Until then, sorry for the randomness!

Coolest guy on the Internet

I’m on a search to find the coolest guy on the Internet. The reasons why I’m looking for this person will be revealed in due course but for now let me highlight a few of my favourites.

Vernon Koekemoer became the most popular person on the Internet by far. At first this guy seemed like a massive joke but now Vernon is featured in television adverts all over South Africa. Straight outta Benoni into web celebrity status.

The all time classic though has to be Bolton Deventer. Bolton captured our imagination with his SEO skills and web traffic tips and occasionally we were graced with the presence of his ever loving wife – Barbara. While Bolton only managed to survive for about 7 days on the web he was and will always be a legend in our time. Visit Bolton’s site here if you’ve never had the chance to meet him before.

It is impossible to know who the next big thing will be but if Bolton and Vernon have taught us anything it’s that celebrities online are needed as much as they are in real life.

In the meantime though I’ve found a real gem on YouTube. Does this chap take the cake or do you think that someone else belongs on this list. Please let me know in the comment form below!

The search is on and may the best man win. Enjoy the video!

Update: have you guys seen this coolest guy website?

FINAL UPDATE: Competition is over. I got beaten to the draw and even despite now ranking #1 and #2 respectively for the coolest guy on the Internet I’m afraid to say it’s too little too late.
