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!

  1. What a nice pre-holiday idea to share books!

    I’d love to win ‘SEO: Your Visual Blueprint for effective Internet Marketing’, sounds wonderful and is about what I’m trying to learn right now.

    Thank you, Darren.

  2. I would love to receive a copy of YOUR book. Why? Because I’m still paper addicted to some extent and like reading things in places other than my desk. I collect your posts in a folder in my computer, but I don’t always find time to print them out when I’m looking for something specific you’ve suggested. You have been a great help as I get started with blogging.

  3. Thanks for the giveaway.
    I would love to have “Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success”

  32. This is a great idea. I’d like to win #4: Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog.

    I’m very new to blogging and must earn money to supplement disability payments. Your site has so many helpful ideas, and it’s good to be in touch with other serious bloggers.

  33. Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers Share their Secrets to Creating a High-Profile High-Traffic and High Profit Blog – That’s the one I’d like to win!

    I would love to have # 4, the book Blog Blazers: 40 Top Bloggers…. As a new blogger, this book would be excellent to help me start to build my library.

  35. Darren,

    A great idea….. I’d love PROBLOGGER please….. why… Ive read one of the others, can obtain a mountain of info on the other topics at the click of a mouse… BUT I get immense value out of your site and posts, and therefore YOUR book would be of the MOST value to ME.

    Hi Darren

    Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive is the book for me. It has 111 Amazon reviews and 102 of these are 4 or 5 stars. If I had read it already I would have been able to persuade you to make me a winner – chicken or egg?

    Great blog.
