And the First Book Winner is . . .

Maria from Cotabato City, Philippines.  Maria (aka Mars) is a single mom and teacher.  Her blog is chismis today (for my non-Filipino readers, “chismis” means gossip).  She usually writes about her day-to-day life.  Mars also has a blog called techiecardia.com, some of which is dedicated to teaching methods.  Show some love and visit one of her blogs.

By the way: notice that Mars has given my banner a fixed spot on her blog.  I prefer this over a single post/entry.

Bloggers, Win My Book!

I’ve decided to try a new advertising strategy.  I’m going to randomly give away copies of my book to those who advertise my blog.  Here’s how you can win a free, autographed copy, shipped to the address of your choice:

1. Post one of my banners on your website/blog.  In order to be eligible, you have to put a banner on your website (not just a text link).  For those using blogger, I’ll also count those who ad my blog to their blog list widget (a feed–not just at text link).

2. I’ll monitor my statcounter statistics.  If I see a hit from your blog, you are eligible to win.  I’ll simply select a blog at random–in theory, low traffic blogs are just as likely to win as high traffic blogs. 

3. If you are selected, I’ll also review and feature your blog along with the win announcement–extra traffic for your blog!  Please remember I am a Christian–I will not promote blogs/websites with questionable content. 

4.  I’ll be giving away a book every month or so. 

I like this idea because everyone wins.  Posting a banner costs you nothing.  If you happen to win my book, great!  If not, you’ll be helping your friends by directing them to some solid, biblical relationship advice.

Hint: another way to increase your chances is to write a post (in addition to the banner on your side bar).  Here’s a sample. 

By the way, please go ahead and buy the book if you were already thinking about it.  If you win, you’ll have an extra gift to give away to a friend. 

Here are the banners. Just copy the html code and paste it into your website.

Want a different size? Just let me know and I’ll see what I can do.
