Chris Garrett is one of my favorite bloggers and one of the nicest people I’ve met in this online world. He also happens to be one of the foremost experts on the business of new media, blogging and online marketing, and this fall he opened an online course called Authority Blogger that is awesome. It includes 3 months of modules on marketing, networking, branding, strategy, authority, and more. Also included is membership in a private forum, consulting calls and email support. The material is great and Chris kindly offered to sponsor this contest with a free membership to one lucky winner! Leave a comment below to enter by Tuesday February 3, midnight US central time. Be sure it includes a valid email address so we can contact you!

Thank you for the great opportunity! I’ve “met” Chris through the Warrior Forum and he seems like a genuinely nice guy.
I love Chris Garrett. He had some fantastic ideas for bloggers at SOBCon08, especially on providing structure and organization to blogging efforts. And thanks to @johnhaydon for tweeting about your contest. Of course, I’d love to win and reach and help more new moms with my blog.
If I win this the new year if definitely be happier
I have been getting the authority blogger mails for some time now but winning the complete module will be great!!
I am in, I would love to win.:) I give blogging workshops for NGOs and nonprofits, so this can be very helpful.
I’m just starting my creativity coaching business. This sounds like a great course.
Course? Did someone say course? I want to play!
I would love to win!
Throwing my name in the hat. An awesome prize to win! Love reading Chris’ emails.
That’s an article?? I suppose I really need to win this course to find out what this is all about, because I can’t imagine that’s enough to be noticed. (But here I am commenting, so you all must know something I don’t……)
Wow, what a great thing! Now, if I could already get off information overload, winning would be much more appealing – but hey all the same I have had a few small interactions with Chris via twitter and he’s a great guy, with great information and ideas.
Yes, I have been interested getting in Authority Bloggers. I shall be glad it comes my way.
I just love blogging, especially now, when I’m making money
What a great prize for a lucky blogger! I am part of the group and it has been a terrific learning experience. The modules help get you up to speed and keep you on track.
Plus, the Authority Blogger Forum has valuable information from bloggers of all levels.
Chris Garrett has a unique, painless way of teaching that helps you immediately see the results of your efforts.
Great idea for a contest! The program sounds really useful.
yes, of course i’d like the prize.who does not know Chris Garrett, his every word has a definite meaning in the realm of internet’
great idea for a site promo! thanks.
Chris’s course would be fantastic, and I have discovered your blog which is great
Cool! im from southamerica and woulb be glad to take this online course for improve my work in Chile. Hope to win =D
I just finished reading Problogger and I am getting ready to read it again. This time I am going to take notes. I would love to take this course as well.

Well I gotta try to win this. I read Chris & Darren’s book recently and would LOVE to take their course.
Nice idea for a contest. How about 2nd prize is Chris sponsors another contest on the runner-up’s blog!
I think blogging is a way of marketing for companies
Well this sounds like a fun chance to get a first hand look at the Authority Blogger course.
Anyway I’m happy to have stumbled upon your blog from Darren as the content looks nice. My sub is in, too.
Cheers,
Frank
Knowing Chris from 5000BC, Sean D’Souza’s membership forum, I can say with confidence he knows what he’s doing. The course will definitely take the winner to the next level.
I’ll be bookmarking this blog as well. I already downloaded the automatic Wordpress update plugin mention on the right. Very cool.
My son and I have 3 Wordpress blogs now and that will save us some valuable time.
Great idea to get new readers by the way.
Nothing like learning from the Master!
What generosity of spirit you and Chris are both exhibiting with this contest! I am especially interested in learning Authority Blogger principles to apply to my charitable work with the Shenandoah Community Foundation, an organization that supports all the area nonprofits and helps donors create permanent endowments for their favorite causes: “Connecting People Who Care With Causes That Matter.” Thank you for this chance!
Although I’m a subscriber and fan, I’m one of those introverts who finds it hard to compose meaningful comments. This is such a generous offer of a 3 month long opportunity to learn everything that I’d love to know that I can’t resist. I would be over the moon if I was chosen and had the opportunity to complete the modules and learn from Chris and others in a private forum environment.
Great prize!
Sounds like an excellent prize. Count me in to the contest.
Count me in.
Definitely an awesome prize.
By the way, excellent theme.
Lucky me to find the post just in time to enter the competition.Excellent prize,thanks
This would definitely get me back on track and inspired again after a few set backs.
Hi Randa,
I really enjoyed looking through your site — lots of good stuff. I’ve been “following” Chris over the last year and he gives indispensable advice on blogging and much more. I read the book Chris wrote with Darren Rowse, Problogger, and it’s now a permanent reference on my shelf. Cheers!
Thanks for having this contest Randa!
I first learn about Chris Garrett from the ProBlogger book he co-wrote with Darren Rose. It is definitely a great read and resource for any blogger. I have been looking at the Authority Blogger web site for some time, but I just do not have the funds at this time to join. So hopefully, I will win this contest to learn Chris secrets :=)
Wow! What an opportunity. Thank you very much. Chris is a brilliant blogger and what he doesn’t know doesn’t need to be known! This course is just what I need so that I can achieve my goals this year. I have my fingers crossed….
I`m only starting to figure out how much blog can be usable. In Russia it is not so popular business tool, so it`s cool to be among pioneers… Anyway I read every Chris`s recommendations and other materils on professional blogging.
Thanks Randa and Chris!

Though i have no idea of chris garett.i was a new member of the authority blogger.But from others comments.i came to know that he is the best blogger.i want to be beneficial with the present course.i think i would hear from you about the course.
Chris’ course has always looked like a great deal, but I just haven’t been able to put the time in to focus on developing a blog that mattered. Of course, with the economy the way it is, it seems like a perfect time to focus on something that matters to me.
Good luck to the winner!
I have been quite impressed with the professionalism and authenticity that Chris captures so well in his writing. That’s the reason I keep coming back and am subscribed to his blogs. I would love to win this prize because I believe I have something to contribute to the blogging world. Chris sets a high standard when it comes to creating community with words. What better person to learn from?
Looks like a great way to expand readership…
It would be great to win free access to this course. I’ve been a fan of Chris’s work for a long time, and I’m already a member of the free Authority Blogger forum, so access to the paid stuff would be wonderful.
Wow, what an amazing prize…..please be me, please be me, please be me
Thanks a lot for the idea.
Thanks for the opportunity to participate in this contest. I get a lot of what the bloggers have to say and would benefit greatly from this.
I tried the lotter, the scratch-off, and the real estate with no money down – all have let me down. Maybe this is one contest I can win, and become an instant millionaire!
Oops! Lottery! If this course comes with automatic spell-check, I’d be even happier!
Very cool that you are doing this, Randa, and that Chris is contributing such an awesome prize! Keep up the great work!
