Customer Reviews of Start Your Own Blogging Business (Startup)
Customer Rating:
Review Summary: Good for startups wondering how to set up a blog
Review: Start your Own Blogging Business is short but dense with info. With absolutely no fluff, the book offers quick tips on setting up a blog to complement the small or home business.
Information (briefly) covers: choosing your blogging platform, planning your blog style, choosing a domain, selling ad space, optimizing layout and setting up news aggregators. Short passages introduce why you need to use something - for example, trackback URLs - and how to install them.
The section on making your media kit is unique among the blogging books I've seen, and useful enough to copy and stick in a business plan.
The last chapter inexplicably discuses whether your business should be a sole proprietorship, partnership, S or C corp, or an LLC. This is an odd choice for this kind of book, which until now has been all about blogging. Setting up the legalities of your business is something one would probably buy another book for! This was an odd choice to add to an already short blogger's book.
At under one hundred pages, much of the richness of the blogging world just isn't expressed. I am sure some readers will find this is all they actually need. Otherwise I suggest purchasing this *with* Blogging for Dummies and using them together.
Recommended for home and small office owners seeking a quick read about blogging, or for showing one's boss how easy it can be to set up and run a blog for your business.

Review Summary: Book for Beginners -- Only
Review: If you don't know what a blog is, but for some reason decide you want to start one, then this would be a great place to start. The first third of the book covers "what is a blog".
The next portion deals with promoting your blog. These may be good for someone just entering the blogging world, but most of us have heard of Technorati and RSS feeds. Even if you haven't, you'd be better off with a book that covered more strategies with more depth.
The book gives an overview of the "business" of blogging, but the details are so sparse and basic that you'll have to pick up another book on the subject anyway.
It does a decent job of weighing the pros and cons of different blog services, but, to me, that alone is not worth the price.
Again, if you are a newbie, this book is a good, quick way to get caught up. If not, save yourself the money and buy a different book.
