At the end of September, I announced a group writing project & contest on Blogsessive. The contest ended on September 30th, and today I’m happy to announce the final results.

In the next few days I’ll be contacting personally each of the winners to set up the prize delivery.

Simple Balance Theme Customization Winner

Another contest has come to an end on Blogsessive. Out of the participants, Sara from OnSimplicity.net has been randomly picked by an outrageously simple script, as the winner.

Congratulations Sara! I’ll contact you via email to establish the details.

A big thanks to all the other participants (fog, Cristian Raiber, Arief Fajar Nursyamsu, SE7EN) and hopefully, at least a backlink as a consolation prize will do.

Also, stay tuned for next month’s contest. The requirement will be a bit more complex, but I tell you, the prize will be well worth it.

Blogsessive’s May Contest Results

Blogsessive’s May contest on has ended and the results are as follows:

Brenda has won 1 domain name pre-registered for 3 years with this post.

SE7EN has won 1 domain name pre-registered for 3 years with this post.

And since there where only 3 entries on this contest, I’ve decided that the third entry will also receive a prize.

rish_22 has won 1 domain name pre-registered for 1 year with this post.

All winners have been contacted. The three entries were picked in a random order, not based on quality of the post or any other factor.

Thanks for participating and congratulations on your prizes! Use them well!
