Well, I had my first introduction/saying hello post but now I need to start showing some value right? This first article actually helped myself a lot, I got a chance to review all the marketing, SEO related, blogging, making money online blogs and review which ones I will follow now, which ones I will read more actively. I must say getting to know each of these blogs took a huge time for me and a lot of sites I visited didn't make it to this list, just because I didn't enjoy them too much.
I remember a long time ago I created and article on 1stWebDesigner with 250+ design related RSS feeds I recommended everybody to subscribe to..and it was crazy! Ok, at that time I was crazy myself, I actually tried unsuccessfully to follow them all! But yes, time has passed and even if this article/list looks big, I have made slight improvements comparing to my 250 feed article. Now I present just 37 blogs – but those blogs are covering various topics so what I suggest for you to do, is review this list – check out each site most popular articles and evaluate..if you are interested in such content. If yes, subscribe right away, follow their Twitter feeds, if no – just leave it, with this article You'll have more to read than you normally could anyway!
I can also explain why I created so mixed list with so different niche blogs in case you're curious. As I said I am also creating the list for myself and I consider all of these blog topics related. You cannot build successful blog:
- without social promotion
- without good SEO
- without great headlines
- without knowing how to earn money online
- without communicating
- without keyword research
- etc, etc, etc!
You should read related blogs, communicate with people interested in similar topics and you never should stop learning! And if you're passionate about these topics, reading, learning, evolving your blogging business will come easy to you! What can I say more – start reading!
