Format: Paperback
Food Blogging for Dummies is a must-read for anyone with a dream involving a wok, a website, and wordpress. It is laid out in the time-proven format of hundreds of other Dummies books, but Kelly Senyei's unique approach shines through. She walks you through the basics of setting up a website, finding your voice, and building our brand. Along the way, she gives the pros and cons of each choice an individual blogger needs to make, letting them determine their own path to success. But what was really impressive to me were all the photography tips. Senyei pulls back the curtain to show the tips and tricks the pros use, that will elevate a basic blogger above the crowd and really stand out. An invaluable reference for those just starting out, or looking to add the icing on the cake. Five stars.

There is an art to food blogging and this author has it down. She is a very clever writer and her personality really comes through in her explanations and descriptions of what make a successful food blog. This could have been a very dry read, but was very entertaining and informative. All my questions were answered and questions I didn't even know I had were answered. Beautiful photos, too! Now excuse me, but I have to start my very own food blog!

If you are an up and coming journalist and foody like I am (or just one of the two), this book is the perfect fit! The author brings an entirely new perspective to the table (no pun intended). Her photographs are beautiful and her dedication to the subject is extremely apparent. This is one how-to book you won't want to miss and won't be able to put down!

One of my favorite things to do is look at food blogs, and I have planned to start one with my husband for a while now, but I really want to go about it the right way. Food Blogging For Dummies, written by Kelly Senyei, creator of the Just A Taste blog, has been an excellent place for me to start. It also goes way beyond the start-up stage to teaching about social media, sponsors, ads, branding, and how to come up with engaging content. There are many color photos and diagrams that make Food Blogging For Dummies easy and interesting to read. Even if you have no formal training the author encourages you to remember that your blog does not need to have perfect on the day you launch.

She also has detailed information about food styling and photography, including an interesting section on the 10 hardest foods to photograph, with expert tips and advice on how to make those items look appetizing. I was excited to see the author's suggestions for career possibilities for food bloggers. Once you feel confident there are several ways to branch out, like writing a cookbook, or publishing articles in a magazine. Even recipe development or food styling are possible job prospects! Food Blogging For Dummies is a comprehensive look at all that is needed to make a food blog a success.

This guide is great for beginners. However, if you have done food blogging for some time, or if you would like to do it more "seriously", this book provides only moderate information.

I've long been too intimidated to start a food blog but have wanted to forever. This book not only gave me the tools but the inspiration to begin! This will be my bible as I attempt to navigate the world of food blogging. A fantastic resource and a fun read to boot.

I have always loved cooking and sharing food with my friends and family. Putting my recipes online seemed like the next logical step, so that they could access them wherever they were in the world. I am a little ashamed to admit I didn't know the first thing about starting a website, let alone a food blog. Then I came across Food Blogging for Dummies! It is a great, entertaining, step-by-step resource that has easily led me through everything it takes to start and grow my blog. It is the perfect book for taking your blog from the very beginning to the Big Leagues. I can't wait to keep adding to my blog, making it bigger and better!

Highly recommend! Not only is this book full of great information and tips, but Kelly's writing keeps you completely entertained. She is an awesome writer, and the fact that the book is so full of great information for bloggers AND can keep your interest through humor is an added bonus - I absolutely loved it, and highly recommend. Her advice, tips and tricks got me up and started food blogging within a week. No jokes - it's just that good. A+
