Book Review: Blogging Heroes

These are some books that I've read recently regarding blogging.
  • Online Marketing Heroes
  • Blogging Heroes
  • Naked Conversations
  • Clear Blogging
The first two books from the Heroes series (not the TV show) are pretty good. The interview style writing is authentic and credible. Every interviewee talks about the obstacles they face, how they overcome them, and strategies. At the end of each chapter is a short recap on the learning points. Some may find the learning points repetitive but that's because they are the fundamental principles. Repetition on reinforces the idea behind.

Basically, people who read the books will be learning years of experience, which is easily well worth the money.

If you're new to blogging, Clear Blogging is a very comprehensive guide to blogging. It touches on all topics relating to blogging, from the building to the marketing and monetizing. There are lots of resources provided.

Naked Conversations gives a big picture on blogging and how companies can benefit. It's well researched with plenty of examples. The authors are Robert Scoble and Shel Israel.

Just check out other amazon reviewer's comments before getting.

Here are some excerpts from the book at the links below:
