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:
- Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive
- Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint for effective Internet Marketing
- Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success
- Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog
- 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!

Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success
Me 2.0, please.
I have never invested in blog and blogging books till date and have always wondered if blogging can really change peoples lives. Having started my blog sometime back, I can see tangible results, esp in terms of getting few offline projects. And if I have to go further ahead, I will have to make myself knowledgeable on what sells and how it is sold. Thanks, Darren!
Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog. And I will buy ProBlogger the Book.
O-u-u, so many people who want to read books. I think it is new record for number of comments in one post. Congratulation!
Hi Darren!
I would love to get book ” Blog Blazers”
thanks..
Prince
with love from INDIA
Darren I love your blog and tweets and I nominate myself for book #4 Blog Blazers. Please don’t be put off by the fact that I live in South Africa. You’ll be doing a good deed by helping a writer stuck on the other side of the world who is desperate to get her blog up and running! Thanks for all your great info and advice.
PS: I tweet you as well!
Darren I would like to have “Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive” in case I win the contest
Hi Darren thanks for all the content you put out there. Have helped me accelerate my learning no end. Can I put my name in for Me 2.0
Thanks
My choice is:
Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog
Darren, I would like Blog Blazers. Happy Monday!
Nice! I’d love a copy of Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint for Effective Internet Marketing please (have yours of course :) Thank you.
Great promotion. If I had a chance i would pick out Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success. A great way to build user interaction by giving away stuff you dont need, but what others need. Smart move
I would love book number 6…your book. I’ve only been blogging for a few months and would love to learn some insider tips from the master.
Hi Darren,
As our #1 blogger, its obvious you’ve mastered the first one “Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive” so you really won’t be missing that book any more!
I choo, choo, choose it :)
Adam
I would go with “Blog Blazers”; I haven’t seen that one around this part of the country and it’s seems to difficult to find books about blogging. Although I do have your book!
I’d love to win the Blog Blazers book, it looks like something that I could really benefit from for all of my sites.
Thanks for the cool contest Darren (and the newsletter)!
Roberta
Hey Darren,
I would like to nominate myself for the Problogger Book. Thanks for this great contest!
Hey Darren,
I wish #4 to see the process in dynamics.
Say Everything: How Blogging Began, What It’s Becoming And How It Matters
The reason I would go for this book is to ascertain how the blog has evolved and where it fits in to the social fabric.
Hi Darren, Thanks for getting this post alive with the giveaway I think the book which I would like to win would be “Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success” as everything starts once you are able to recognize yourself as a brand.
I really need the book, “Say Everything, How Blogging Began…”
It appears to be just exactly the right thickness to raise up one of my monitors.
Thanks Darren, hope I win.
Awesome Competition Darren!
A book for a comment… I’d utterly love to have this.
Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog
Good luck to the winner.

Free book- yes please!!!! “Blog Blazers” has my full attention :-)
Me 2.0 Building a Better Brand
Thanks, Darren! This is so nice of you!
Hi Darren!
I would really love to have Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog!
Thanks!
Hi, this is Mergen from Mongolia. Blog Blazers sound freakin’ sweet! If S&H is not too much, I hope I win!
I would go with the 3rd book, Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success. I know some successful people in my country who make a living from their personal brand. Really, just personal branding with no achievements whatsoever unlike sport legends such as Nadia Comaneci or G. Hagi, Ilie Nastase. Ordinary people but with a powerful personal brand. So, I could use some teachings from this book.
Hi Darren, I am interested in the “Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success” book.
Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success – but after seeing the number of entries, I don’t hold out much hope. I might just buy it!!
First of all, getting books in the mail is one of my favourite things.
Since I have to choose just one, it will be Say Everything.
It amazes me how we are a diverse race. I’ve built my bookkeeping business around doing something I love – to the point of geekiness – and others hate. A book about all the things people are passionate enough about to spend their time writing will be an exciting read for me.
1.Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive sounds like a wonderful book —
Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive
Long time reader….first time commenter (I think anyway). Love the blog…huge help. Already read your book a few months ago so I would say…Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive is the book I would choose.
I’d choose #4. Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog
I’d like to read how these bloggers achieved success.
969 comments and counting????? Wow. I will need to do this on my blog, too. I don’t have anywhere the traffic you do, but what a way to drive it! Kudos to you!!
Hard to choose just one, but I’ll go with…
Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive
I’d love blog blazers
Hi Darren- absolutely love your articles, especially as I am a beginner blogger! Have just launched a social enterprise this weekend and need to commence blogging for real so would really like a copy of Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share Their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog!
Thank you (fingers crossed)
