Last September 20, two sporting events were staged in the US. One is UFC 103 headlining Rich Franklin vs Vitor Belfort and another is the Floyd Mayweather, Jr. vs Juan Manuel Marquez boxing match.

Being a big sports fan and a person trying to make extra money online, I made posts about those events prior to them happening and SEOd them. As expected, this web site had a traffic spike on September 20 as people arrived here looking for information about the events.
