Very informative book
I have already been blogging, but this book helped me focus my efforts in a way that may help my business.

DL Byron and Steve Broback have really done an excellent job in writing this very thorough primer on blogging for business. The book, actually, is more than a mere primer: its breadth is surprising. They’ve managed to cover virtually every aspect of business blogging in a mere 180 pages. Quite an accomplishment and one the authors can certainly take pride in.

The approach is linear, beginning with an explanation of what a blog is, determining the focus of your business blog, the varieties of blog, design, tools for blogging, writing the blog, getting noticed, monitoring and managing and ending chapter on syndication and other fine points they refer to as “beyond blogging”.

What is impressive is how much solid information the authors manage to convey without overwhelming the reader. The writing style is comfortable and spare. They avoid technical language and do a good job of explaining each point.

Overall this is one of the best books on blogging I’ve seen. It is practical, not theoretical and the authors left dogma and cant at the door. They are clear that blogs are not miraculous but can certainly help a company advance toward its goals.

Well done and a worthwhile read that will serve as a quick reference after you’ve read it.

So many “blogging” books focus on the theory or social impact of blogging, but this is of little help to the business person who wants to find out whether blogging might have import for them.

Likewise, many of the business blogging books and online tutorials make blogging sound like just another marketing gimmick, which it is not.

DL Byron has written a practical guide to blogging for business, which is to say: he not only addresses the nuts and bolts of building business through blogging, but how one can be an authentic member of the blogosphere. This latter is an essential component of success–the blogosphere is incredibly sensitive to B.S.
