31 Days to Build a Better Blog by Darren Rowse - Page 2 - Virtual Assistant Forums

Hi Tess,

I'm right there with you...completely prefer to hold a paper copy in my hands as opposed to reading it online. I spend enough time on the computer for work all day, and my eyes need a break once in a while!

I actually printed out my copy of Darren's e-book myself and put it in a 3-ring binder for easy access. But might be easier just to buy the paperback and save yourself the trouble!

Thanks, Mary, for jumping in with an answer to Tess' question.

Tammi,
That's exactly what I do when I print out any book, put it in a 3-ring binder. Glad to see I am not alone.
So nice to be a part of this forum.

Mary,
In addition to it being hard on your eyes when you read a book on line, when you have a hard copy you can always refer back to you much easier.

I've been a follower of Darren Rowse for a long time on his problogger.net blog. If you have a blog and you aren't reading his, you really should start doing so. Based on the very valuable content I've always gotten from his blog, I also bought 31 Days to Build a Better Blog. It really is very good, and I highly recommend it to everyone.

Darren has also just started a forum for the problogger community. It is a pay forum, but I think the cost is worth it. The only problem is that the cost is about to go up (either tonight or tomorrow night, I can't remember which). It's currently $1.95 per month and I think it's going up to $5.95, I think. The forum is at http://problogger.com (the blog is http://problogger.net).

Just saw a tweet from Darren Rowse. You have until 1:00 p.m. Easter US time to join the ProBlogger.com community at the intro price of $1.95 a month. It will go up to $5.95 a month after that.

It really is a great resource, and definitely worth the cost even at $5.95 a month.

Great review, I will add this book to my wish list. I really like Darren I read his blog almost everyday and just joined his forum which is a pretty good resource.

I think this book is one of the insightful books for me as a beginner. As i was reading the comments, as if everything about blogging is already compresses there (techniques/tips) and is really a pro-blogger...hoping to have this one...

I have this and I'm a member of his Problogger.com community. It's a great book and really lays everything out in an easy to read and honest manner.
