WIN a Book By Commenting on This Post

Posted By Darren Rowse 13th of December 2009 ProBlogger Site News 0 Comments

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!

    I forgot to say the name of a book, but I don’t have any of them, so I’ll take whatever I can get! :)

  2. Chris says: 12/15/2009 at 4:27 am

    I would love to win Problogger the book or Me 2.0.

    :)

  3. Lionel says: 12/15/2009 at 4:30 am

    Coolness, I’d be glad to have any one of those books. More power to you.

  4. Dee Ann says: 12/15/2009 at 4:30 am

    Thanks for sharing your library and thanks for consistently giving great information and inspiration. I would choose
    Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success.

  5. Richard says: 12/15/2009 at 4:30 am

    I would like the Problogger book. I’ve been to your website a number of times based on the recommendation of other bloggers, I know the information is available here, however, there’s nothing quite like reading a book. A monitor will never match up.

  6. Matt Prados says: 12/15/2009 at 4:32 am

    Hey Darren,

    Great contest.

    I would like to read me 2.0.

    Thanks for keeping the content flowing and real!

    Matt

  7. Jenniferwhatnot says: 12/15/2009 at 4:32 am

    I’d like Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success. I’m working on narrowing the focus of my blog to try to become more of a powerhouse in a niche or two, instead of trying to appeal to more people and driving away some with my diversions. (Just like you talked about last week!) I think branding is something I need to focus on more.

  8. Carl says: 12/15/2009 at 4:33 am

    Hi Darren

    Choices,choices,choices. But if I have to choose I will pick
    Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive.

    Thanks

  9. Sherelle says: 12/15/2009 at 4:33 am

    Me 2.0, please! I’m young and always in development!

  10. Zack says: 12/15/2009 at 4:42 am

    Looks like your give away is generating a massive amount of comments! I’d like to throw my hat in for book #4 – Blog Blazers.

    Thanks

  11. Monique Nelson says: 12/15/2009 at 4:44 am

    Darren,
    I get your emails, along with everyone else I suppose, and I was extremely excited to hear about this competition. If nothing else, I love the idea that I know what you are reading.

    That being said, I am excited to read “Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint for effective Internet Marketing”. This is an area of learning that I just can’t get enough of.

    Thanks again for the opportunity, and I look forward to hearing from you as a winner!

    Monique

  12. Kasia Fink says: 12/15/2009 at 4:46 am

    Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint for Effective Internet Marketing

    Created a new blog and am looking to drive traffic to the site to monetize and help complementary partners.

  14. Deb says: 12/15/2009 at 4:51 am

    ooops really bad getting someone’s name wrong when you are trying to win something off them. Sorry Darren.

    PS. Does a comment on a comment put me in the draw twice?ha ha

    Thanks again, you have the best blog I have ever come across.

  15. william says: 12/15/2009 at 4:55 am

    Thats for the contest.

    thanks

  16. Seth W says: 12/15/2009 at 4:56 am

    Thanks for doing this Darren! I have a feeling it will benefit everyone involved!

    I would like to be entered into “Say Everything”. It looks like an interesting book and would be a great way to learn more about blogging in the beginning.

  17. Barb says: 12/15/2009 at 4:56 am

    Thanks for the chance to win Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint. This is a wonderful promotion, and I’m grateful for the possibility of winning.

  18. sandy says: 12/15/2009 at 4:57 am

    I’d choose Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint for effective Internet Marketing. I am a visual person so this sounds like what I’ve been needing to understand what the heck I’m doing!
    Great promotion tool and idea to clean out the clutter! Might steal it for my 2010 new years resolution method to get rid of “too much stuff” !

  19. Kay says: 12/15/2009 at 4:59 am

  32. Clare says: 12/15/2009 at 5:41 am

    Hats off Darren – this simple offer has got a phenomenal number of comments!
    I’d like Yes – 50 Scientific Ways to be Persuasive – as that is something of universal relevance – whether it’s writing a blog, selling a product, getting people to do things they aren’t jumping up and down wanting to do, or just convincing myself to get out of bed on a cold dark morning!

  33. Dolly says: 12/15/2009 at 5:45 am

    I vote for number 1 Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to be Persuasive

  34. Lisa B. Marshall says: 12/15/2009 at 5:45 am

    Darren, what a great idea to give away books that are taking up space. I’d like to use the same idea! (Hope you don’t mind!)

    I just requested a few of these from my local library, but I think I’d like to have a copy of your book, Problogger.

    Thanks for a great idea. – Lisa

  35. Ardit Veliu says: 12/15/2009 at 5:47 am

    Hi Darren,

    Great idea for Christmas! I would like the 1. “Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive.”

    I hope to hear from you.

    -Guna

  37. Brian Prows says: 12/15/2009 at 5:53 am

    Well, Darren, looks like waiting a day or two to comment puts you at the bottom of a huge list.

    As a member of your “silent majority” (read your posts but haven’t commented yet), I thought now’s the time to thank you and your guest bloggers who write such great stuff. It’s helped considerably with my MobileBeyond blog.

    Put me in for “Blog Blazers” and continue your excellent work. (Already bought your book.)

    Brian Prows, MobileBeyond

  38. Terry B says: 12/15/2009 at 5:56 am

    Blog Blazers for sure!

  40. Jad says: 12/15/2009 at 6:00 am

    Awesome!

    I’m interested in Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive

  41. Merry Lee Corwin says: 12/15/2009 at 6:01 am

    Undoubtedly, any of these books would improve me, but I’d like Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog.

    Thanks for doing this.

  42. Claudia says: 12/15/2009 at 6:06 am

    How in the world will you choose among thousands?! You consistently deliver useful information and convey the message that your goal is to help others achieve success. A winning combination! I really appreciate your patient, humanistic approach.

    Even though I probably have only a wombat’s chance to make it across the road alive, I’d get the most out of 1, 3, 5, or 6.

  43. Callista says: 12/15/2009 at 6:07 am

    I’d like to read Blog Blazers! Great giveaway!

  44. Dianna says: 12/15/2009 at 6:07 am

  45. Aly says: 12/15/2009 at 6:08 am

    Hi Darren!

  49. Shelly says: 12/15/2009 at 6:28 am

    Wow! What a great idea – I am looking at just one of my many stacks of books and am realizing I should give mine away, too! I’d love a copy of your book – guess that means I’ll have to give one of my others away in order to make room for it! I appreciate all of your shared wisdom – has really helped me in my endeavors.

  50. Holly Hayes says: 12/15/2009 at 6:29 am
