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!

    Hi Darren,

    I would like a copy of “Me 2.0”.

    Why?

    Because I have to get out of the cubicle farm.

    I, I, can’t stand it anymore!

    The working conditions are awful.

    My creativity is stifled and the farm disgusts me!

    Blogging, is my way out.

    Blogging, is going to be my salvation.

    Blogging, and taking your sound advice, are going to free me from the prison of the cubical farm.

    Thanks for a great blog!

    Vic

    I would love to have a copy of you ProBlogger the Book, as I have been reading tons of your articles to properly research starting my own “professional” blog. Thanks!

  15. I think Say Everything: How Blogging Began, What it’s Becoming and Why it Matters would be an interesting read over the holiday break…

  16. I would love a copy of your book, Problogger. Glenn, from Divinewrite has spoken highly of you and advised I watch and listen so as to learn how it SHOULD be done. I am on the start of the learning journey. :)

  17. Darren, I’d like Say Everything: How Blogging Began, What It’s Becoming, and Why It Matters.

  18. I like the looks of: “Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint for Effective Internet Marketing” Thanks.

  19. Darren,

    A great idea to make some space on your desk, while at the same time getting readership to your blog and FB and Twitter.

    Always read your blog and look forward to reading your Problogger Book soon. ( hopefully )

    Hi Darren

    This is a great idea!

    My plan for 2010 is all about building my personal brand, so (if it’s not too late to enter/respond) the obvious choice is “Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success”

    I’m currently reading Problogger the book, which is very consumable – easy to read and down-to-earth, practical tips.

  24. I’d love to win Problogger!

  25. Cat McCracken says: 12/16/2009 at 11:32 am

    Hi Darren,

    My choice would definitely be your ProBlogger book!

    Kind Regards

    Cat

  26. Hi Darren,

    Great giveaway. I’d like Yes: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive.

  27. Hi Darren- I would love to have the book Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success. I’m just digging into the branding aspect. I’m still learning and I know that would be a great help to me, just hearing the title.

  28. Me! Me! for Me 2.0: Build a Powerful Brand to Achieve Career Success

  29. My passion is preserving the tropics as the tropics provide much of our planet’s oxygen and water, foods, flavors and ingredients, and a fragile balance for the rest of the earth. I am stepping into the world of regular blogging to engage readers in this crucial mission.

    One of the many steps I’ve taken is to sign up for tips from ProBlogger, a wise decision as I have already learned a number of tips in less than two weeks. Book number four: Blog Blazers calls out to me.

    Two of my immediate goals are to grow my newsletter subscriber base and to get advertisers and sponsors. If I am chosen to receive a book and you believe that one of the books I didn’t choose is better for my goals, that would be lovely. Thank you.

  30. hmmm…I already have a dogeared copy of Problogger, so how about Me 2.0

  31. Hi Darren,
    I will keep SEO book as a souvenir. I will be glad if I get search engine optimization. Thanks
