Folks we have our first winner in our link to a coconut contest. Now don’t fear we’ll be giving away at least 2 other coconuts, possibly 4 more coconuts since there has been such great enthusiasm towards the contest and it’s idea but I thought I would announce the first winner.

The first winning entry was actually one of the first! It was a great write-up by Brian over at caydel.com. He wrote about using contests with prizes as a Linkbaiting mechanism and to draw attention to a site or product. You can read his whole entry here.

Congratulations Brian!

The winning post he picked was from our alternative energy blog Fueling the World and the post is titled An Inconvenient Truth, a review by one of our bloggers Tim Roth about Al Gore’s book. It’s a good post and the entry was great!

We were a little amazed when one of the first entries came back a winner, and thought the contest would be over in no-time at all but there have been many more entries since and there are still 2 coconuts out there.

Keep the entries coming, you could be the next person with a coconut on the way.

  • Wow - I was not expecting to actually win - I was more intrigued by the coolness of this contest as linkbait!

    Thanks Erik!

  • Crazy stuff. I was amazed since you were one of the first ones, I thought this contest would be quick. But alas, there are still more coconuts to be won!

    Getting some good entries so keep it up people!

  • [...] After having our first coconut winner last week we’ve seen a dropoff in link to a coconut contest. So get your entrants in and you can be the winner of your very own coconut from Hawaii. [...]

  • [...] Here’s something that might get a few more people interested in the coconut contest. This is the Genuine Hawaiian Coconut that was sent out to the first link to a coconut contest winner. [...]
