WordPress for Dummies – Prize Winners
Last week I ran a five day competition here at ProBlogger where every comment that you left on the blog put you into the draw to win a copy of WordPress for Dummies by Lisa Sabin-Wilson.
The post that I announced the competition on got quite a few comments in itself – but so did others over the week (there were close to 700 comments left over the five days across the blog) – so there was lots of competition.
Following are the five winners of the books chosen at random:
- Monday’s Winner – Peter from I will change Your Life
- Tuesday’s Winner – Mark from Complete Life Success
- Wednesday’s Winner – Stephanie from Aspects of Home Business Blog
- Thursday’s Winner – Jenni from Fashion by Jenni
- Friday’s Winner – David from GreaterFalls.com
Congratulations to each of the winners. Lisa will be in touch shortly to arrange for delivery of WordPress for Dummies.
Thanks to everyone else for your participation in both the competition and community on ProBlogger. If you didn’t win you can always pick up a copy at Amazon for $16.49. Also you might have some luck in our next competition (next week) where the prizes will be a new template for your blog.

Please, let me be the first to congratulate you guys. I also noticed a couple of you guys working hard commenting despite the little fact that it was a random choice.
Good work and good reading. Perhaps you bay be able to enlighten us with some of the little tips found within your new books on this blog in the near future?

Wow. That caught me off guard. I won something?
I hope I can learn some interesting things from the book. I’m not bad with Wordpress, but I’m sure there are plenty of things I’m missing out on.

Thank you! I’m surprised it was me who won something out of all those other commenters. I’m really excited to learn more about wordpress and probably would’ve ended up buying the book if I hadn’t won this.

Wohoo, I won! Thanks very much ProBlogger. I am really looking forward to getting the book as I need all the help I can get with making WordPress work for me.
I am really enjoying blogging so far. It gives me a way to share my thoughts and experiences in a positive way while (hopefully) helping people at the same time. I want to make my blog the best it can be given the limited time I have to devote to it so the book will really help me, along with ProBlogger of course!
Thanks again!
