Book Recommendation: Blogging for Dummies, 2nd Edition
In my true 101 style, I want to recommend a new book for everyone that just started in the area of blogging. The release of the book, Blogging for Dummies, coincide this month with a blogging event this month (Northern Voice) on Feb 22-23 which you should attend if you want to know more about blogging.
New to blogs? Check out Blogging for Dummies, 2nd Edition.
Susannah Gardner of Hop Studios and Shane Birley of Left Right Minds are the authors of Blogging for Dummies, 2nd Edition (published by Wiley).
I know Susie personally since she is the one who has worked on my website. As such, I am especially delighted to know that they have used my site as an example in the book of what a “dummy” (yes, that would be me) can accomplish with little supervision. What can I do without my geek friends? Therefore, besides the fact that they are my friends, I would recommend this book regardless. (I did not read it yet)
Here is some more info about the book from Monique of Boxcar Marketing:
Susannah and Shane offer expert tips for new bloggers and bloggers looking for ideas and resources on improving their blog. The book includes explanations in plain English, quick information for techies and non-techies, tear-out cheat sheets and top 10 lists.
Blogging for Dummies, 2nd Edition is a great resource book for business and personal bloggers.
What’s the promise?
Discover how to create and maintain visitors to your blog, protect your privacy and your job, deal with spam and inappropriate comments, find your voice, and use your blog to promote your business.
Check it out for yourself and start blogging. It is addictive.

New Project: eMarketing 101 teams up with Hop Studios
It is with great pleasure and excitement that I announce a new project for eMarketing 101. In the next few months, Hop Studios and eMarketing 101 will collaborate to execute a complete redesign of MovieMaker.com supported with a complete Search Engine Marketing plan.
Travis Smith from HopStudios.com is definitely a master at redesigning website with the use of expression engine, a premium content management software from small and medium size businesses. It is therefore with a lot of enthusiasm that I forsee the synergies between our respective skills set. As soon as the project kicks in near May 28, I will post some preliminary challenges in SEO, results and relevant information. Stay tuned.
