Format:Paperback
I liked this book on blogging. When I first spotted this title I wasn't sure I wanted to pick it up. The author is a professional writer. He has written a lot of books. And I've read a few of them. I've even posted a book review for one or two of them on Amazon. The author's books for the most part come across as term papers to me. They can be kind of mechanical and don't always dig too deeply into the subject material. But this book is better than most of his previous works. Maybe it is because he is an active blogger himself and much of what he covers here came from first-hand knowledge?

I am by no means an expert when it comes to blogging. But I have read quite a few books on the subject and I have two blogs of my own which I haven't been contributing to lately. In my humble opinion this book is one of the better ones I have read on blogging. I was very happy to see some coverage of Blogger-dot-com and Wordpress-dot-com, two free services that anyone can (and should) take advantage of when building an online presence for themselves or their business(es). I was not familiar with Vox-dot-com or Blogster-dot-com before I read this book, but now think they are nice services to get involved with, too.

The book is well organized and well written. It is fairly comprehensive. It has 15 chapters and a glossary. The target audience is probably small business owners who are seeking to take their company online so they have an online presence where they can promote themselves, their expertise, their credibility, and how much of an authority they are. Blogging is an important ingredient in the mix, and by reading this book you will probably be well on the road to using your blogs both efficiently and productively. 5 stars!

PS. To learn more about this book I encourage you to visit the Search Inside feature Amazon offers which includes the book's Table of Contents. Enjoy!

I read summaries and reviews of a number of blogging books before deciding to purchase this one. I'm really happy with this book, and am impressed with the amount of topics Jason Rich covers in a succinct, knowledgeable and easy to understand way. Just the right size handbook.

Rich talks about everything from vlogging to the look of your site to search engine optimization. And because his book is new for 2009, buyers now will find everything completely up to date, unlike some of the other books. He gives realistic advice on monetizing a site, and becoming popular as a blogger.

Rich also interviews well known bloggers for tips on how to get your blog out there and get page views. Overall, it is a very comprehensive read that you can skip around to various sections where you want to learn more.

Great book! A lot of useful information; it's a couple of years old, and the internet moves so fast that it's hard to stay up to date, but for the most part, it's a good resource for bloggers. It even tells how to start a blog so it's good for someone who has never blogged, but is considering it.
