These blogs will make you a better blogger

by matt

I put this list together as a sort of primer to help some of my colleagues at work incorporate blogging into their work-flow. Media companies, like the NFB, can save a lot of valuable time and energy in their marketing departments by blogging their processes.

These sites are a great place to start:

  1. Seth Godin

    2. A brilliant blog from a marketing genius – if you only read one blog, read this.

  2. The Long Tail Blog

    3. The book was just the beginning. Chris Anderson continues to deliver prescient analyses of the Long Tail revolution that’s reshaping media distribution.

  3. Daily Blog Tips

    4. Making your blog readable by people and search engines.

  4. In Over Your Head

    5. Montreal podcaster, Julien Smith blogs about SEO and web marketing trends (also less and less about underground hip hop) – he’s also tapped into what’s happening in the elusive Montreal tech community, which is helpful.

  5. Problogger

    6. This site is a bit garish and ad-heavy, but it’s sprinkled with great advice.

  6. Copyblogger

    7. How to write effectively for a blog. I should probably read this more.

  7. SEO Book (Search Engine Optimization)

    8. These days, Google is the Internet. So adapting your site to be Google-friendly is critical to getting seen and heard. Aaron Wall’s SEO blog is full of great little tips to adapting your site to this medium.
