Are you thinking about starting up a blog and using it as a means of supplementing your income? Then this is a must-have book. It goes through every step of the blogging process. Some the topics covered are how to choose a niche topic, how to find a host, how to write for blogs, how to introduce advertisements to your blog, and how to promote your blog. It even gets into the topic of buying and selling blogs for those who are interested in getting into the digital real estate market.
What I found to be really useful is that the authors introduce a lot of sites that are beneficial for bloggers. You'll learn where bloggers gather to share ideas about how to run their sites and also sites with useful tools for bloggers are also introduced.
The authors have a lot of experience with blogging and it shows in this book. I learned a great deal and I'm really glad that I read it. I recommend this to anyone who is thinking of starting up a blog. Also people who have ... Read More

Darren Rowse and Chris Garrett have written a book that you should read if you're interested in blogging.
"Problogger: Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income" is based on Darren's (and his partner Chris') personal experience building blog businesses to make $100,000/year or more.
Like Darren's popular Problogger blog, the book is casual, informative, supportive, and offers lots of specific strategies. It starts with the personal stories of how the 2 authors became successful bloggers. (Spoiler: They were not overnight successes and not everybody is going to make $100k!) This realistic approach continues throughout the book.
The Problogger book pays excellent attention to the business side of blogging. It helps the reader evaluate his/her own interests and potential approaches that may lead to lucrative blogging for that individual. The authors help you determine content niches appropriate to your expertise, select a software platform, ... Read More

I am relatively new to blogging but have spent time and money looking to offer some quality blogs. I was looking forward to reading Darren and Chris' book as I had gleaned alot of information from their websites. I was not let down with this book. The information is concise and 95% was very relevant to a new blogger (the blog selling chapter won't be needed...yet). Thanks guys for a great resource that shows your experience in the field and lays out easy steps to establishing a long-term blogging career.

for people who want to start a blog. Has good detailed information for someone with more technical skills, but easy to read for those with less technical knowledge. Definitely worth the price.

A great book and I was already a big fan of Darren Rowse and his blog. He is a very successful pro blogger, a fine example to follow and learn from and having the 2 perspectives - different backgrounds, both end up at pro blogging and both very successful - is very effective. The book is easy to follow, written for anyone who even hasn't the basics of technology down, and has a reasonably good flow. I just wish it covered the tricks of the trade in much more depth, with examples, case studies, personal experience, and tips that you do not find anywhere else. It was a bit general for me. I am still glad I read it.
