And Daniel B, the 1st Winner – if you’re still reading, please contact me too.

Jagdesh – sorry about that, but random is what random does.

By now it’s no secret that I’m NOT going to win  the “Blogging Idol” competition… but I wasn’t in it for the money anyway. I’ve learnt so many new tactics and techniques, and discovered a pile of great sites and blogs to wile away my time with, that it was definitely worth it.

The Blogging Idol ends in 3 days time, and that also gives you

Just 3 more days to win my Final SEO Give-Away.

All you have to do is subscribe to my blog (this link is for email subscriptions, for RSS, click on ) and write a comment on the blog telling me that you’ve subscribed. Please don’t forget to write that comment, or I won’t be able to put you into the next draw of the competition.
And if any of you looking at the Blogging Idol Scoreboard are wondering what happened to MY numbers (you can scroll down to entrant #102 to find me) - well just go look for all my questions on the Feedburner Help forums (on second thoughts, you probably don’t want to bother doing that) … anyway they are somewhere in the 60′s, which I’m rather happy with, all things considered.

The idea was to have hundreds of friends and acquaintances subscribe to my blog, since they would all want a shot at THE PRIZE – a FREE SEO analysis of a website or blog of their choice.

Well … I didn’t quite get hundreds :-(

But I did get enough to have to choose the winner using Random.

So, (drum roll….) the winner of Round 1 is:   Daniel from Answers.com !!

Well done, Daniel. I’ll be in touch via email for you to give me your site name for SEO analysis.

And thank you to everyone else who subscribed and commented.

Competition Round 2 has now started

All you have to do is subscribe to my blog (this link is for email subscriptions, for RSS, click on ) and write a comment on the blog telling me that you’ve subscribed. Please don’t forget to write that comment, or i won’t be able to put you into the next draw of the competition.

So, although it’s 10 past 2 in the morning (yuk!), this post HAS to go out now.

David – all I can say as a (lame) excuse is that I was in the throes of trying to change my blog url without losing all my Blogging Idol hard work…

With everything going on, in the post I wrote about the RSS Group Writing Project I completely forgot to give Kuddos to the WINNERS of the project!

So, here they are, courtesy of Jacob Share:

Building RSS Grand Prize winner (and Promotional contest prize!) was:  David Shaw, ProTycoon

The random participant’s prize went to:  Paul Piotrowski -InspiredMoneyMaker.com

And the random sponsor’s prize went to:  Mirko Humbert of Designer Daily

Now, it really is Good Night and Sleep Tight :-)

Remember my post on breaking all the branding, SEO and Blogging rules?

Well, I probably should have rushed and put up my SEO blog in time to get it into The Blogging Idol competition. But I only managed to get my QA blog there. And now I’ve discovered that I can’t redirect either of them to a combined QA and SEO blog, because I’m hosted on wordpress.com …

So, I’m going to start putting some of my SEO blog posts up here too, and please just assume that this blog was really called “Debi’Z blog”, or “Debi’Z QA and SEO blog”.

At least until I get this sorted out? OK ??

You can find a short history of how I got into SEO at “Who am I?“, and you’ll find an overview of what I do for an SEO living at “What does SEO Qualified mean? “.

And now for the competition …

Do you want to win a FREE SEO Website Analysis?  Well NOW YOU CAN !

Once a week, till the end of the Blogging Idol competition, I will be giving away a FREE analysis of the website of your choice.

All you need to do is to subscribe to THIS blog as of today, and let me know about it in a comment on this post. Three subscribers, chosen completely at random, will win the prize :-)

The prize-winners will be announced on the 20th, 27th, and 31st of July !!
