www.problogger.net the best of the best

[Bloggeries]

I've published about 20 blog articles and tutorials (http://www.bloggeries.com/blogging-articles-and-tutorials.php) which will help you get going. If you aren't familiar with the blogosphere you may want to freshen up on your blog definitions (http://www.bloggeries.com/blogging-definitions-terms-of-the-blogosphere.php)

Thank you so much for all the above links. I am just thinking about starting a blog and it looks like there will be alot of great information on some of these links. Thanks again.

CopyBlogger (http://www.copyblogger.com/) is one of my favorites. :)

[shyflower]

Just never reprint her content without asking. :)

Or anyone else's for that matter. It's called plagiarism.

[Prettyfem]

Some people think it is within fair use.

To reprint entire articles? Or to quote and link excerpts?

[Prettyfem]

To reprint lists found within articles or to reprint articles as long as they cite the source.

[Jelena]

Here are some lists I bumped on today:

45n5 - Top 100 Make Money Online Blogs (http://www.45n5.com/top100/)

Top 25 Blogs About Blogging (http://www.dailyblogtips.com/top-25-blogs-about-blogging/)

Top 25 SEO Blogs (http://www.dailyblogtips.com/top-25-seo-blogs/)

To reprint lists found within articles or to reprint articles as long as they cite the source.

That's content licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license.

Of course, not everyone actively licenses their content, but if they don't name a license on the page, then it is legally assumed to be completely copyrighted. You could get into a bit of trouble if you didn't get permission first. (I will do anything to avoid legal hassle. :D )



As for blogging resources; I'm mostly subscribed to the common ones mentioned here just. Aside from that, I love Skelliewag (http://skelliewag.org). It's one of those few places where you'll actually be reading original, useful content on a regular basis. :)

I've written two posts recently on the resources I visit daily, firstly these new ones:
http://www.oakinnovations.co.uk/blog/2007/09/09/why-i-love-finding-new-blogs/
and these which I've been subscribed to for ages:
http://www.oakinnovations.co.uk/blog/2007/08/14/5-resources-to-make-you-a-better-blogger/

The earners forum link in the second post seems popular, I don't think alot of people are aware of it.

[ses5909]

I've been a long time member of earners forum (same user name) although I'm not as active there. I had a podcast with the owner a couple months ago if you're interested:

I'm working on making Blogging Blog a resource for personal bloggers -- so I'll go ahead & promote it here. Lots of lists of other resources there.

[youlki22]

I am blogging for more than 2 years and have a good knowledge of blogging. My new blog has some resources links. I hope it would be beneficial for all.
useful-links-and-resources-lists-for.html/ (http://youlkisblog.blogspot.com/2007/09/useful-links-and-resources-lists-for.html/)
There are a lot of other promotional tips and resources I have added and still updating the blog.

[echos]

Wow, all those links. I have having a hard time reading all the blogs out there. I must have had my head in the sand, ugly! Oh well!

[ses5909]

You could never read all the blogs out there. Hopefully, though, this thread is a good resource to help people get started and find out more info.

www.problogger.net the best of the best

I've used problogger. I think it is among the best of the best.

Helium lists itself as being for bloggers, and they have an ad "if you're a blogger write and make money". They're not really a blog site, though. On the other hand, by the time you build a bunch of articles (according to your choice of subject) you do sort of have a blog-like thing - and you earn a little money for it.

[Musicology101]

You can try this link... blogcatalog, blogdirectories, & bloggingtips...

I took a look at Problogger, and was very Impressed. I think I will give it a try.

I can't believe that most people here haven't mentioned Lorelle at Wordpress (http://lorelle.wordpress.com). Even if you're not a Wordpress User, she has some of the best tips and resources about blogging. Even has a book too for new and veteran bloggers alike.
