David Airey, one of the first bloggers I met online and a fellow graphic designer, is celebrating his 1 year anniversary. Of blogging, that is. I can’t put this off for much longer because the deadline for entry is Wednesday! You might think this is a selfish attempt to get lots of entries into the contest, but not only that, I’m helping you because you can enter too! All you have to do is write a blog post about David’s great giveaway!

David is an awesome logo designer. He was able to network with some very prominent and talented people to offer an awesome prize giveaway in celebration of this anniversary. I like this new trend of the person celebrating being the one to give out presents to everyone else!

Presents!

There are three big prizes with multiple gifts: a gold, silver and bronze package that you could win (or I could win! Oh, I hope I win!). Some of the best goodies include:

Highlights of the Gold Package:

• Custom logo from David Airey. Check out his graphic design portfolio
• Custom WordPress theme design from Nate Whitehill
• Signed copy of Blogging Tips by Lorelle VanFossen of Lorelle on WordPress. I’ve heard many people say this is a great book for every level of blogger.

Highlights of the Silver Package:

• $60 of books from Amazon courtesy of Darren Rowse, the ProBlogger.
• A second logo design from Tara Roskell of Graphic Design Blog. She is another one of my first blogging friends. She’s quite the talented designer!

Highlights of the Bronze Package:

• One hour blog optimization consultation with Daniel Scocco of Daily Blog Tips. This consultation will cover design, SEO, monetization and blogging strategy, from the author of one of blogging’s most useful resources.
• Revolution Premium WordPress theme package (personal package) from Brian Gardner, WordPress designer and consultant. Brian’s WordPress skills awesome and he’s a great guy to boot!

And MORE Presents!

There are tons of smaller bonus prizes from $25 via PayPal courtesy of Gayla McCord of Mom Gadget, to three 2GB USB flash drives courtesy of Jamie Clague at Terinea Weblog and tons of offers for reviews of blogs or websites from the likes of Chris Lodge, Aaron Russell, and Hock Ng of Marketing Tools Review.

There are also several offers for phone consultations from a variety of business people like Tammy Lenski, a professional mediator and conflict coach, Mark McGuinness, a coach for creative professionals, Rebecca Caroe, a business growth consultant for creative agencies, and a blog improvement or monetization advice call with Easton Ellsworth of Business Blogwire. Oh, and you can forget all the great advertising opportunities like a 125px by 125px image ad for 30 days on Smart Wealthy Rich, the book give aways from david the designer and Brad VanAuken of The Blake Project and the subscription to the upcoming forum of Andy Beard, the famous niche marketer.

Hurry! There’s still time for you to get entries into the contest as well! The deadline is Wednesday, September 26^th! Check out the post on David’s blog for more details and good luck! Let me know if you win anything!
