Tonight I finished reading Blogging For Dummies by Brad Hill. Amazon recently added it’s very own version of the blog called the plog which allows writers to have a blog on Amazon targeted to their readers. If you have bought a book by the author you will automatically see their blog on Amazon. Naturally Brad Hill was quick to pick up on this because he is supposed to be an expert on blogging so he has a plog.
Surprisingly his book only has two Amazon reviews right now. I always make the effort to write an Amazon review of a book I’ve read because I’ve heard these reviews are read by authors and publishers. I like to review the obscure books I’m reading and I try to write really intriguing reviews. It is fairly easy to contact an author directly by e-mail so I probably shouldn’t waste my time on this indirect contact method.
Any way, the Blogging For Dummies book was worth the money because it gave me lots of web addresses and resources to check out. It should be of some value in promoting my business through blogging. Being a geek, it could have been more technical for me.
