Paul Browne is running a competition with a few of the guys that are going to the Irish Blog awards, to see who can get the highest percentage increase in subscribers. They are all using feedburner as the official subscriber count. I wish I entered the race, at the moment I only have 16 subscribers so should have an advantage over some of the bloggers like Tom Rafferty who have over 700.
I'm sure if I put my mind to it and used some of the tricks like Eoghan Macabe I could get another 16 people. Eoghan is giving away €2000 worth of website design to a lucky subscriber in the next few weeks.
I haven't managed to blog as much as I would like lately. I did have a new years resolution to blog more since November but I have been extremely busy with work. I hope I win that competition Eoghan is running so I can get him to develop the Passion Development web site. It is on my very long list of things to do but with getting married in July and buying a new house at the moment it looks like it is going to stay on the long finger for the moment.
Best of luck to all in Paul's competition, I'm hoping to make it along to the awards so see you all there.

Stephen,
We’ll probably have a ’round 3′ starting next week. Leave a comment on the Blogpost if you want in …
Congrats on the upcoming Wedding – didn’t realise that you were getting married.
Paul

Thanks Paul, I’m looking forward to the big day. Have an lot going on at the moment so also looking forward to a few weeks off afterwards.
Hope to see you at the awards,
Stephen

Thanks Eoghan.
I think your offer for new subscribers might just get you ahead of the other competitors 🙂
