Blogging For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech))
$24.99
This is a great book for people who want to learn wordpress. The only reason I do not give it a 5 is because it is dated. That is not the fault of the author, but simply how fast Wordpress has evolved. It would be very difficult for any book to keep up with fluid changes of an online medium. The best reccomendation for learning wordpress is the same advice for learning a language. Jump in! Textbooks cannot replace the learning that comes from experience.

ProBlogger: Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income
$24.99
The way I see it, the title of a book is a promise to a prospective reader. This book does not deliver on its promise: "secrets to blogging your way to a 6-figure income."

If it had been titled, "Getting started with blogging from two guys who know their stuff", that would have been more fitting.

The book really is a good book. But it's *very* entry-level. For example, the first 76 pages of the 211-page book will be irrelevant if you've already started blogging. (They cover things such as how to set up a blog, how to choose a topic for a blog, and so on.)

Again, a good introductory book. But absolutely no "secrets" here.

The IT Girl's Guide to Blogging with Moxie

This was amazing! I learned so much about the world of blogging from this little book. I'm using this as a reference as I go along designing my own blog, and it's been very helpful in my quest for a site designer. I would really suggest this for anyone out there who wants to create an above average site.

While this book is now brand new David Scott was so far ahead of the curve that it is still a very contemporary read. It covers the breadth of internet marketing with excellent introductions to virtually all of today's market channels. I highly recommend it.
