Product Description
Blog is short for Weblog. A Weblog is a journal (or type of newsletter) that is updated often and intended for the general public. Blogs generally represent the personality of the author or the Web site owner. In July 2006, the Pew Internet & American Life Project estimated that the U.S. “blog population has grown to about 12 million Americans,” some 8% of U.S. Internet users. The number of U.S. blog readers was estimated at 57 million (39% of the U.S. online population).

I have to confess I started reading this book with a great deal of skepticism. Oddly enough, the author quickly grabbed my attention by relating he went through the same experience when he first stumbled upon blogging as a serious matter to study.
The Secret Power of Blogging, by Bruce C. Brown, is an all-in-one book for bloggers, serious bloggers, wanna-be-bloggers, or someone like me that has no idea of the magnitude and the importance of blogging within the ever changing e-commerce universe.
The author takes particular care in providing step by step instructions in, not only how to set up the blog, but how to market it, and some special rules of engagement in regards to cyberetiquette, and the like.
I especially appreciate the large type, making it so easy the ride, as well as the layman style. It is not necessary to be a “technocrati” to understand it. Although some minor typos make you think maybe the book was written in a rush, this is an undeniable needed source of information for both individuals and corporations.

Who is your target market? What type of content will the Blog include?

When I started to read this book I had no idea what was meant by blogging. The book not only clarified what, but how to apply the principles so that it was possible to set up a Blog with little difficulty. I would recommend this book to anyone who is starting out, but it would certainly be helpful for those people who have some experience with blogging but need some addition assistance.
