win one of these booksUPDATE: This competition is now closed and I have closed comments on this post. Thanks to everyone for entering – it’s been amazing to see so many entries! I’ll notify winners of their win shortly!

OK – I have a pile of books that is growing beside my desk (and on my desk… and on my bookshelf) made up of books that I’ve either finished with or that I have multiple copies of.  

I’d like to do a bit of a giveaway today of a few of them and all you need to do is leave a comment saying which one you’d like.

Below I’m listing 5 6 books (I’ll link to them on Amazon so you can read more about them) and I’m asking you to nominate ONE (not more than one…. just one) that you’d like to be in the running for.

This Wednesday I’ll randomly choose a winner for each book, contact you to get your mailing details and pop them in the mail for you (I’ll pay for the shipping).

Here are the 5 books:

  1. Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive
  2. Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint for effective Internet Marketing
  3. Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success
  4. Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog
  5. Say Everything: How Blogging Began, What it’s Becoming and Why it Matters

Oh and for a little extra I’ll throw in a copy of ProBlogger the Book as a 6th Alternative.

Remember – you can only choose 1 – just use the name of the book in the comment – (this way I’ll know you’re getting a book you don’t have) so choose carefully!

UPDATE: This competition is now closed and I have closed comments on this post. Thanks to everyone for entering – it’s been amazing to see so many entries! I’ll notify winners of their win shortly!

    Thanks Darren

  16. Darren,

    I vote for your book

    I.

  17. Hey Darren,

    I have been reading alot about personal branding and would love to win the Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success book. Been following your blog for about a year now and appreciate all the great information you pass along. Thanks for the opportunity!

  18. Hi Darren! What an ingenious Idea you have in making this offer! I am continually amazed at how creative you are in this arena of the Internet. My Best Regards to you and yours this Holiday season, and for the New Year of 2010!
    I am interested in learning more about blogging, in a professional sense. I have my “journalistic/travel type” blog, but, I would like to monetize my efforts now, and feel that my blog is too personal? How do I make it appeal to the masses, in order for traffic generation, mass appeal, monetization, and all that is required for a successful blog? My “family” raves about my blog, but then, I suppose they have been my main target audience LOL! I wonder if Blog Blazers would speed up my transition? Yah, I just wonder if sitting down, with a nice cup of Java, and having a good read of BLOG BLAZERS might speed things up a bit> ? Making everything Google friendly as well>?
    Well, your the expert, so I will leave it all in your hands.
    My Best Regards,
    Valerie Mosso http://banditas-blog.com

  19. I like “Say Everything.” I already have the SEO book.

    Nice contest Darren!

    Regards,
    Cynthia

    thanks!

  33. Hi Darren,

    Put me down for ‘Problogger The Book’ please. No point in trying to write something witty to get your attention if you are choosing the winner randomly (lol) so I’ll save my rapier sharp wit for my future blog…which I’ll start immediately after reading your book :-)

  34. Blog Blazers seems useful to me so I choose that.
    Thanks Darren.

  35. Great Promo just in time to get a Christmas gift for myself (or from you that would be!) my fave would be #4. Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog. Thanks and have a very happy holiday season!! : )

    Say Anything! I already have your book and it is great! Thank you.

  37. #4 Blog Blazers. Getting ready to set up two blogs, one is MyLIfeOver50.com and while it’s some personal things on finding jobs, products and other things..

    But I also want to earn some money, not retiring money but a supplemental income..So I think this book might help in my original set up of a blog.

    Thanks,

    joe

  38. Hey Darren,

    Thanks for this giveaway. I would like to have “ProBlogger the Book” :)

    Thanks again !!

  39. I want the Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog! :D

  40. Wow! What a great deal… I need only read the best bloggers blog out there and I might get a free book! I’d like to be considered for “Say Everything: How Blogging Began, What it’s Becoming and Why it Matters”

    Enjoy the day!

  41. Darren, thanks for the chance to win! I’d love to win a copy of ProBlogger the Book. Good luck to all!

  42. Hi Mate, since I already have ProBlogger I would like Blog Blazers. Please package carefully since it will have to travel to Vegas, USA.
    Not to squander a chance at learning something why don’t you do a post on how you select a photo for your posts, where you get yours from, what sizes you use etc.

    Thanks Darren

  43. I have a blog that is about four months old. What I struggle with most is distinguishing myself from you, Steve Pavlina, or any other blogger and particularly in my niche.

    Blogging is much like shouting in the middle of a football match right after a goal. No one hears you if you just blend into the crowd.

    ME 2.0 sounds like just the book I need to read. perhaps after reading it I will finally find that place of quiet tranquility where what I have to say rings out clear and true! :-)

  44. I would like “PROBLOGGER” if any are still available.
    Simply because I want to learn more about integrating a blog into my website design without breaking the design. Is there a chapter on this or similar issues?

  45. Hey Darren,
    Great giveaway! I’ll go for, “Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success.”

    (I already have, and love, your book!)

  46. Khurrum says: 12/13/2009 at 11:55 pm

    Thanks Darren!

    I choose:

    “Yes!: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive”

    Thank you!

  47. I’d love to have “Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint for effective Internet Marketing” if I win. Thanks…

  48. There is clearly only 1 book I would want, and that is the Problogger 31 days to a better blog, sweet.

  49. You know, I got this post emailed to me, and my first thought was, ‘Dammit, he’s going to give away that new book of his, and I just bought it!’ LOL.

    I would nominate ‘Say everything’, because I want to know where we’re going and how to prepare for it. If there’s one thing I’ve learnt in life, it’s good to keep ahead of your game.

    PS – I’d probably give your book away to one of my blog readers, since my copy is coming in the post any day, now. Pay it forward.
