Blogs that No Blogger Should Miss

Joshua Ska
There are zillions of blogs floating around the blogosphere. Some are just for fun or personal, while others claim to be business blogs, and still others are for entertainment. If you are a blogger, there are a few blogs that you simply must read and should be on your RSS feed reader. Reading other people's blogs (good ones) can improve your own blogging skills and help you become a better blogger.

Problogger: If you have been blogging for any decent amount of time, you have probably heard of Darren Rowse and his extremely successful blog, Problogger. This isn't just any old blog, it is also one of the most informative blogging resources you will find online. It is a great read for new and experienced bloggers and you can be assured of new content on a daily basis.

Professional Blogging News: This one is the new kid on the block, but it is shaping up nicely. As its name states, this is a blog about blog news. It covers interviews with famous bloggers (great for learning techniques) and a variety of other blog-related news.

DoshDosh: Here's a blog about money. I didn't even realize until a few weeks ago that "dosh" means money somewhere in the world! At first glance, the anime avatars attached to each article may give you the wrong impression, but this is a very good blog if you want to get a handle on earning money through blogging.

Make Money Online Free with Court: An amazingly good, but relatively new blog that offers great tips on earning from your blog. Court does a lot of case studies and gives instructions on how to do a lot of the technical stuff on blogs, so if you are a newbie, this is a great blog to start off with. Advanced bloggers will also benefit, particularly from the case studies and statistics that Court is so fond of posting.

Daily Blog Tips: Exactly what the name suggests. You get some very good tips every day, plus the occasional contest or group writing project that gives you a chance to get backlinks galore! Tips range from technical (why you should widen your blog template) to more technique (using storytelling on a blog).

Blogtrepreneur: What this blog lacks in English grammar, it more than makes up for in information. If you don't mind a few odd sentences, this is worth adding to your feed reader.

These are the best blogs that I know of for bloggers. Some of you may be wondering why John Chow isn't up here, since he was long revered as one of the top bloggers. Yes, he earns big, but in my opinion, he has gone over to the dark side, what with 90% of his posts being sponsored. What was once a useful and informative blog is pretty much washed out nowadays.

So, read through the list of blogs above and add your own in the comments.
