Being I have spent most of the week traveling, filming behind the scenes at Marketleverage, and preparing for one of the most important speeches of my live so far I had to ask to current attendees who they thought I should send to the SEO ThinkTank event in San Diego later this month.
DK and Corey broke down all the contestants and came up with a top 5 in which everyone voted on.

I am happy to say and completely agree with the consensus with the winner.
Current attendees voted and the winner is Zac Johnson
Congrats Zac!
Thanks to everyone who contributed. Everyone talked about how difficult it as in choosing a winner.
Special thanks to ThinkTank attendee Correy Hammond for doing a ton of legwork and helping us pick a winner!

Good luck at the events, I was going to enter but I couldn’t drop daily business on short notice.

A Big Congratulations to Zac Johnson!!!

Congrats Zach you deserve it
September 14, 2008 at 3:14 pm
I have this tremendous admiration for all computer experts…I am more than likely from the wrong generation…I stumble and digg around a lot. But to see someone win an award for something I find extremely complicated and difficult..I have tremendous admiration..
September 14, 2008 at 4:35 am
Congratulations to the winners.. Specially Zac Johnson

Jeremy,
I would like to propose that the four runners-up do something cool for the rest of us. There is a video-collaboration free download called ooVoo (www.oovoo.com)
ooVoo permits up to sixteen separate video collaborators to be on-line on one screen simultaneously. All you need is a web cam and a microphone.
I propose you schedule a ‘mini-think-tank session with these obvious thought leaders, (even Bryn!) and help some of us pull ourselves a tiny bit up the food-chain of Affiliate Marketing and SEO.
Hjortur’s time-zone in Iceland, ok I’m willing to meet on his schedule, his blog is very professional.
Let me know after Think Tank if this works, keep it to one hour because we are all so busy..
Respectfully, Nicholas
September 14, 2008 at 10:02 am
Man, that’s an awesome idea. An e-think tank….that’d be so cool for the rest of us.
September 13, 2008 at 10:36 pm
Haha, Zac’s a winner alright. This couldn’t have went to a better guy.
Congrats Zac!
September 13, 2008 at 6:37 pm
Congrats Zac! You’re one popular spidey. You spin a good web of friends.
Fame comes and wealth chases you around. Enjoy your big moment.
September 13, 2008 at 6:09 pm
Great pics more people should get to see your site

Congratulations Zac!
September 13, 2008 at 9:03 am
Congratulations to the five and most of all to Zac.

If “Everyone talked about how difficult it as in choosing a winner.”, why don’t just put all the names in a hat and pick one from there. I think that is much fairer. I don’t have any entry in the contest, however I feel that if you can’t pick up a winner in a fairest possible way, you will lose faith to all the participants in the end.
September 13, 2008 at 8:22 am
This isn’t one of those contests though. He wanted someone who has experience and can share knowledge to better the conference.
September 13, 2008 at 9:04 am
This wasn’t a lottery-style giveaway…
September 13, 2008 at 5:15 am
Congrats Zac. Hope he will reveal something about his real money making experiments.
September 13, 2008 at 5:05 am
I think that Zac is a god Winner!
September 13, 2008 at 4:15 am
Hey Jeremy, this was a nice competition, and i am happy that that Zac won it coz he really deserved it.
Good luck to you Zac
September 13, 2008 at 3:37 am
Zac is a great choice! His dedication and helpful demeanor will enhance the Think Tank tremendously. If Jeremy could stream any portion of the Think Tank weekend it would be cool!
Respectfully, Nicholas
September 13, 2008 at 2:01 am
Damn, i would sooo have loved to come. I guess i’ll just have to keep my secrets to my self now
ok, maybe i’ll just share them with my readers in stead. Congrats, Zac. You’ve earned it. And thanks for considering me. I’m honored. Hope to meet you guys snnn.
September 13, 2008 at 1:03 am
Cool, now Zac can share with Jeremy how he made some money like 3 years ago and how he’s still trying to make some change by posting affiliate links in every post at every opportunity. Congrats on picking someone who already has enough money to pay for the ticket himself!
September 13, 2008 at 1:01 pm
hey bryn. its not zac’s fault. just by being in the contest people know us that didn’t before. best to take it with a smile and look for the next one. never know who’s watching. great resource with the rss icons, btw
September 13, 2008 at 1:38 pm
