 Very comprehensive August 24, 2010
Steven M. Hoefflin, M.D. (Los Angeles, California)
I thought that this book was very good to lay down the basic fundamentals of the current blogosphere. The two authors were quite good at laying down the framework and explaining the different ways to monetize a blog or website. The book is good for the average reader who is familiar with internet social media, its neither too technical nor too dumbed down. The formatting, spacing and font sizes and graphics in the book were very applicable and I did learn something by reading this book. The most valuable portion of the book was the tracking and analytics section I really learned a lot from those parts. Look forward to following their website and twitter feeds!

 Great read for potential bloggers ... August 17, 2010
R. Toole
I chose this book because I'm looking into launching my own blog. However, it's something I have little experience with. This book is great for giving insight and giving you a lot to think about. I can't speak for experienced bloggers, but for those in my position, it's a great read!

 Great introduction to monetizing a blog. July 19, 2010

I picked upProBlogger: Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income after blogging for a litle over two years. I've been doing it as a hobby because I love writing and photography, but admittedly haven't thought much about monetizing it.
br /
br /For me, this book served as a good introduction to how to make money from blogging, both directly and indirectly. However, its focus is a little more broad. It coves everything from choosing a topic to write about, to setting up your blog, to making money. It mixes information and examples with exercises that challenge the reader to apply what they are talking about and use it to inform their own blog.
br /
br /Because of its broad focus, I think it would be the most useful to someone who is brand new to blogging. I still found it very informative as someone who has been blogging for awhile. However, I did find myself skimming through the pages on setting up your blog because mine has long been set up. However, I thought their instructions were very straight foward and clear and definitely would have been helpful to me if I had stumbled upon them when first starting my blog. They also provide some great tips on deciding what to write about and choosing a domain name.
br /
br /The content specific to monitization is good but should really be used as a primer. As others have mentioned, much of this content can be found on the ProBlogger blog or elsewhere on the internet. However, the beauty of this book is that it is condensed and all available in one place. No reason to go digging. That said, it is really just the tip of the iceberg so if you are looking for one book to cover everything you will wind up disapointed. I still don't believe I know everything about monitization, nor did I expect to when reading this, and expect to still read more on SEO as a follow up. There are also no secret, magic strategies here. If you are looking for a get rich quick solution this is not it.
br /
br /Overall, I enjoyed this book and it met my expectations. It was a great first read on how to monetize my blog, but I'm still planning on reading other resources to continue to get smart.
