I’m so confused!
The 193 entries into my ProBlogger Book competition were all so great that I’ve spent the last hour agonizing over who to choose.
I didn’t know whether to choose winners based upon quality of the comment, the blog of the commenter and how much help it needed (and how useful the book would be to them) or any of 10 or so other factors that I could have chosen a winner on.
As a result I’ve chosen three winners and will send each a copy of the book. I only wish I had 193 copies sitting on my desk to send.
Thanks to everyone for entering – but here’s the winners:
I’ll be in touch with you each shortly via email to get your postage details.
Like I say – I could have chosen 100 or so others to win – but had to draw the line somewhere.
To the rest of you – thanks for entering and I do hope you manage to pick up a copy of the book. Amazon currently has it on special for $16.47 and I’m told that it should be hitting stores outside of the US any day now (if it’s not already arrived). Many stores have them on order and others are taking customer orders for it so call up your local store and order one today.
Congrats to the winners!
Congrats! I already have a copy! Thanks, and congrats to the winners!
Congrats guys!
Congrats from me.Thanks Darren for having this competition.
Darren,
I can’t thank you enough and I look forward to getting and reading your book. You’ve actually already taught me a very valuable lesson…Make sure to check the information you enter on comments otherwise if you misspell your name and you win something from an A list blogger friends will make fun of you.
No Issues, Darren, I’ll Buy it Soon :)
BTW Congratulations to the Bloggers (Winner). Give a tough competition to Darren. :)

I have been reading it the last few days, and you will enjoy doing so as well.
Yay to the winners, I am so grateful for you all. I’m going to buy a copy soon myself, can’t wait to get the expert advice and become a professional blogger.
Hehe. Congrats to the winners! Your book is obviously worth the money, Darren. You’re really crazy to give it away to begin with :) I’ll be buying it soon, and I’m sure I’m not the only one.
Thanks for the email regarding our entries. That was a class act.
Thanks Darren for a wonderful book promo idea and kudos to the other 190 people for posting their sites. I’m slowly going through that list!
And to Chris of Geek-Speak, I like how your site is organized and quickly found some older posts that cater to me more than your co-winners. Subscribed!
I was going to enter… maybe there will be another competition soon…
congrats to the winners
Congrats Kali, Chris and Talent :)

Hearty Congratulations for the winners.
Take time and do use the book wisely guys.
A stiff competition and a lot of time consuming for Darren indeed.
Thanks for such a contest Darren. Looking out for more.
Congrats to the winners!
And thanks for the email, Darren. Unfortunately I can’t afford to buy it now, even with the discounted price at Amazon, but I’ve added it to my wishlist ;)
Awesome works Guys. And good to see all the support
Thanks everyone and Darren! I think I fall in the category of needing it the most. LOL.
When I started my blog 9 months ago, I just intended it to be a fitness log. Darn! Wish I had found Darren sooner AND known that I would eventually want to create a revenue stream and expanded content.
Oh well – expect alot of changes comes soon. Can’t wait to get the book and thank you so much Darren for this awesome website Problogger!

Well i didn’t win it.. but then again i didn’t enter the competition :)
but i just bought the book via the amazon add so Darren enjoy the few $$ of my order… i hope the book is as good as it looks :-)
To bad that I did not enter the competition
Ordered it a few days ago before you announced this comp, but I thought £10 for a book is pretty good, it should arrive any day now……

I read this book cover to cover in one day. Great read and some very inspirational and practical tips. It will be my standard reference manual as I embark on blogging. Thanks for all your hard work!
Congrats to all the winners. For losers, don’t worry. you will win next time and proud to be part of that competition.
Darn, I didn’t win again… ah well
Congrats to the winners
I just purchased this book and started to read it on my flight to Denver last week. So far it is excellent. I was coming up with so many ideas. I wish I had pen and paper on the flight to make little notes. I may have to start again!

JUST FYI
I live in Athens, Greece and I was able to purchase book by ordering at one of the international bookstores in the center.

aww pants! I missed the comp… ooops!
well done to the winners anyway… nice one!
Congrats to the winners! By the way, what DID you base the final decisions on? Just curious! I need to buy my book soon. It sounds great. And thanks for the wonderful blog you have here (ProBlogger).
Shoot…I missed the contest!
Oh well, I didn’t need the book anyway because I already bought it about 3 months ago knowing nothing about blogging.
Today I’m working on my 3rd blog and kicking butt thanks to the guidance and knowledge the book gave me.
Check out my latest creation Internet Marketing Techniques
Hey Darren
Just to let you know, I bought the book in Singapore, so it’s arrived in the tech bookstores in this part of Asia at least.
