Today I’m taking a little time away from my usual line of reading/reviewing (fiction) so I can review Jonathan Yang’s Rough Guide to Blogging.
I don’t consider myself someone new to blogging by any means, but that certainly doesn’t mean I know everything. With that in mind, I got this book to read in the hopes I would find out something new that I could hopefully apply to my personal blogging.
This guide is a great example of what a guide should be.

Do you wish your blog had thousands of followers or was one of the best known blogs in its' niche? I can honestly say that's not why I write (although I love having readers and very much appreciate that people read my ramblings, thinking about having an audience while writing just makes me nervous!). But even so, the main reason I enjoyed The Rough Guide to Blogging was because it caused visions of future blogging success to dance in my head.

comprehensive high level overview of blogging 101 but don't expect depth or specific content ideas. somewhat outdated - written in '06, now 2010. What you need to know to get started.
The author forgot (or simply neglected) to include anything pertaining to the Mama Blogging Phenomena, much to my dismay. Otherwise, very useful information and easy to read.
A small book with a HUGE amount of information! An excellent guide to blogging!
A good resource for technical tips on formatting, structure, key words, and getting your blog picked up by search engines -- overwhelming for the novice or would-be blogger yet to set the world on fire.
I already know all about blogs, BUT there was a lot of good pointers to a lot of interesting, informative, and kooky blogs that I'd never read before.
Good overview of blogging. Most was a review, but did fill in some gaps in my knowledge and taught me more about what is possible.
It helped me realize the power and potential of blogging
apparently it's weird to read books about blogs.
my frnd asked me 2 go through it.....
