User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I guess I should read it, huh?

⭐OK, I never wanted to support the Dummies series, just because of the word “Dummies”.I am so over it. After wading through tremulous tech books, this is absolutely a pleasure and a hoot at the same time.There is absolutely NO REASON why we can’t learn techie stuff and have fun at the same time.

⭐I was hoping I would learn from this book but it basically just went over stuff that I knew. But I still thought it was a good book to have because sometimes I get confused and have to go back and look at it again and this book has all the basics covered. Easy to understand. Hence the name Blogging for Dummies.

⭐I know there’s good information here…somewhere…but everytime my eye lights on a page I have to find my way around the author’s witicisms to get the information. And I haven’t laughed once. If they want it to be funny and engrossing, they should get Dave Barry to write it. Otherwise, it’s just annoying.

⭐I found this book very insightful. I have been using the web for years and did not understand alot of the terms that I had heard being thrown around. Thanks to this book I do understand the terms now and am just about to start my own blog. I recommend this book to anyone needing the extra help with general and a little more indepth computer and world wide web concepts and terms.

⭐Any “Dummies” book is worth it, especially when I needed this one to begin my first blog! And I have, now being fed across America, too!

⭐Blogging for Dummies reviewed by Dr. Eric Flescher, Olathe, KS: (dreric1kansas@aol.com) Authors: Brad HillPublisher: Wiley Released: 2006 Pages: 368 $ 22 USA29 Canada 15 UK ISBN: 0-471-77084-1 Strengths: This is a text you want to get if you are just starting a blog or just thinking about one. The breadth and depth of information provided by the author will give you a solid grounding with blog,s no matter what kind of blog service you will use. The pros and cons for each service are also highlighted.Weaknesses: Black and white screenshots. Some screenshots are a little on the small side. Novice/Intermediate/AdvancedRating: 5/5 I have created websites for several years. Then the word called “blogs” appeared and I did not really know what they really were or how and what ways I could use one. Finally I introduced myself by reading some blogs and “scavenging around for information.” Several blogs were created but not before I decided to change where I put my blogs. If I had read this book first, that would not have happened. But better late than sorry and that goes for anyone else who wants to operate a blog for fun, home, pleasure or business. This 368 page book is a ” steal” and is just what you want if you are interested in initiating or improving your blog. The book’s author created the Google for Dummies book and is a lead blogger for Weblogs, Inc. His vast experience is amply demonstrated in the five sections of this book. The nineteen chapters provide the full breadth and depth for understanding the many facets of a blog experience, now and in the future. There is more to “web blogs” then just placing a “blog that connects to the internet.” It has become more complicated. The introduction is well done and informative. Part 1 ” The what, where , why and how of weblogs,” covers entries, post and archiving and understanding the blog mechanics and elements. Now you gain a sense of how blogs appear and what the “look’ for your blog(s) should be and the different ways to display your blogs to help make decisions. details the different type of blogs (social networking, self installed blogs, web host blogs. Part 2, ” starting a blog today” compares, and contrasts blogs to decide which blog type is best for your uses. This section covers blog publishing tools such as Blogger, MSN, Yahoo 360, Typepad and others. Understandable and clear, reading these chapters gives you reliable ideas for selecting choices and making up your mind. What I like about this section is that the choices were all displayed and especially for first time bloggers, a user can explore and choose instead of spending all the time hunting for the “right blog.” And deciding the right way first, may help you choose your style for your blog that will meet your needs now and for the future eliminating the need for transferring and starting over with a different blogger engine, when I found out and decided I needed more flexibility. Part 3 “installing your own blog program’ has information about mastering your own blog domain, installing your own and starting. Movable type, WordPress, Hybrid blogs are explored. While I did not choose any of these methods for my blogs, there are many who do so this is another avenue to explore before you start your blogging exploits. Part 4 `total blog immersion,’ goes beyond “blogging.” learn about RSS feeds, running a blog business, running podcasts, using photoblogging. Part 5 is ” the parts of ten,” is a curious name but is very useful as this section highlights resources and information that can help you learn more about blogging in general. I found this section useful because in many ways, authoring a blog goes beyond many facets of blogging which is similar to advertising and finding out about websites. Learn about blog directories, blog site trackers and much more. Finally the glossary and index help round out the information. While the book is in black and white, this does not detract from the learning process or take away from it. The screenshots, many of them small, are helpful, give a better sense of how to utilize the tutorials. Along the way, there are four icons displayed in the text (tips, remember, technical stuff, warning!). i wished I had found this guide sooner. When I wanted to find out further information about blogs and upgrading my idea, I was desperate to find a good resource and guide. A good book was difficult to find but I finally found this text. This dummies book is well done, informative and the price is right for what you can learn. The author has really done a ” solid job” and has written a book that is not only easy to read but enlightening. The additional resources and knowledge in the book provide a great understanding to the `world of blogging, ` starting your experience with blogging but extending it. I recommend this book highly for those who want to start their `blogging journey’ or “improving your experiences.”

⭐Blogging for Dummies innundates your mind with numerous options to select a blogging platform and launch your own space on the net. It’s organized into manageable chunks that let you decide how to proceed with confidence.Had I read this book before I launched my blogs, I believe my frustration levels would have been much lower and success much quicker, with fewer problems. The book also reveals beneficial ideas and tools for bloggers, whether new or at the veteran stage.Chapter 8, The Ins and Outs of DIY Blogging, is the only chapter I found more confusing than necessary. While blogging is already a daunting process for some, it needn’t be complicated by the technical instructions explained here.The topics of Real Simple Syndication (RSS) and money-making options provide a well-rounded look at this subject.Stay with the book’s basic strategies for fast and easy setup, and you’ll be blogging in no time.

⭐This was probably a great book when it first came out, unfortunately it’s way out of date 🙁 Shame as it looks well written.
