Interesting enough, but very one-sided

ByAnabelle Bernard Fournieron April 15, 2012

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Another book I started a while ago and just finished, ProBlogger: Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Income Figure isn't very long or very complicated; it makes for a good, quick read about blogging.

If you don't know ProBlogger, you should, at least if you're interested in blogging: it's the go-to blog about blogs. Yes, I love meta and the word "blog" will come frequently in this post.

In any case, as I left the academic world and decided to try something new, I thought about starting blogs for money. I love to write, I seem to be pretty good at managing and producing content, and I'm sure there are things I could share with the world... for a profit.

The book goes through the three steps of making money from blogs:

Setting up a blog
Making it popular
Earning money from it

The most important lesson I got from the book is the importance of choosing a niche; it helps build a loyal community, get expertise and great, contextualized advertising. However, except for the generic "start by identifying your own interests, passions, and energy levels for topics", there's not a lot of direction about how to choose a profitable niche. There also isn't much about search engine optimization (which I fortunately covered in another book) or about keyword research. However, a lot of the things that Rowse and Garrett hold important (niching, ads, etc) aren't necessarily the be-all and end-all of popular blogging.

The one section I found really useful was the monetizing section where the authors explain all about choosing the right ads, affiliate programs and other revenue streams. While I'm sure there's more complete info on this (it could be worth an entire book), it was a good introduction and gave me guidelines if I ever have to do something like this myself.

In general I found ProBlogger interesting and informative, even if it doesn't delve too deep into any of the topics the authors touch on. Even the case study in the last chapter lacked depth-I would have liked to know more about how he managed his content, built a community, etc. But as an introduction to professional blogging, it does the job.

Really great for new bloggers

ByAmazon Customeron July 3, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

If you're new to the blogosphere then this book is brilliant, but if you're already somewhat experienced then you need to start looking elsewhere. It's really just all the blogging basics in one tome, but as far as building strategies it lacks a little bit. I do recommend it to anyone who wants to start they're own blog or has done it already and has yet to learn a little.

Easy to understand for the beginner.

BySusanna Meadowson March 5, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I am a complete beginner in the world of blogging and I find this book fantastic and easy to understand. I first checked it out from my local library and when I found myself wanting to make notes in the margin, I bought the book because it is a classic.

It's a blogger not pro.

BySvetoslav Nikolovon September 8, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Everyone will learn something from this book. If you are looking for a in depth knowledge on the subject, you may be a little disappointed. The author touched the key points of the subject but not too many details are brought and explained.

Great for the beginning blogger; moment of truth for the 'experienced' blogger

ByJudyAnn Lorenzon September 4, 2012

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I read the third edition. I've been blogging since 2005, but thought a good book might have some handy tips. I was right. This book does take you through the basics of setting up a blog and the choices a beginning blogger has in front of his/her.

Sound, experience based, suggestions about blog management and realistic points of view -- will the blogger do it? can the blogger do it?

If you are beginning a life of blogging that you hope will become profitable, this book will give you some solid direction. If you are a blogger, you will see that there are some things you've been doing 'right' and some things you've stubbornly clung to that are hurting your blog. Some reviewer feel that the book isn't enough and they may have a point -- I follow pro-blogger online as well, so some of the information was not a surprise. I didn't really expect a solid recipe for getting to six figures. However, it is there...choose a niche that gives a damn about what you might be able to tell them, write well about what that niche wants to read, get assertively (almost aggressively) commercial. But get readers and participants. No readers; no serious selling, either your product or affiliate. Am I there? nope, but I know more about why now.

What I like about this book is the update -- note 3rd edition. Everything internet is in evolution and nothing does more damage than obsolete information. If you're a book dependent, this book is not so expensive that you can't keep getting the newest edition for your library.

Great detailed book for bloggers but repeats itself

I really did enjoy the first part of the book but as it went on I found myself less engaged. It seems to repeat itself quite a bit and expands on topics that I don't think needed...Read more
