The first props I’m sending out are to John Chow for his free eBook. John published this book 12/31/07 just in time for the new year, and I’m sure it helped a lot of new blog writers start their year off right.
From the first page (the title page) John communicates with his fresh sense of humor and amusing writing style. His table of contents is clear and useful for quickly finding things once you start your own blog. While some sections were extremely helpful for a new blog writer such as myself (e.g., monetizing your blog and promotion ideas), some of the information about WordPress was outdated (mostly because WordPress has implemented some of his suggested plugins into the program already).
Another thing I really enjoyed were some of the more advanced Google optimization tricks; these tricks may seem basic to professional bloggers and IT gurus, but your average Joe definitely gets great value from this section.
Finally, I really love that John sticks to his guns with the price on this eBook. Not only does he have amazing marketing and publicity ideas that he uses personally, but he also shares them! It is a quick read (only 59 pages of blogging/marketing evilness), so take an hour or two and read this eBook! If you sign up for his mailing list in the upper right of his webpage, you can download How to Make Money Which John Chow dot Com.
I hope you enjoyed my review. Please leave a comment with your thoughts! More updates and lots of tweaking my page coming soon!

Yeah we can learn from these ebooks but we cant get success by reading.If it was so easy everybody would be earning 40K.I think we need to see how they write,how they market their blog.It is more important.
