Summary: Book for Beginners -- Only
Comment: If you don't know what a blog is, but for some reason decide you want to start one, then this would be a great place to start. The first third of the book covers "what is a blog".
The next portion deals with promoting your blog. These may be good for someone just entering the blogging world, but most of us have heard of Technorati and RSS feeds. Even if you haven't, you'd be better off with a book that covered more strategies with more depth.
The book gives an overview of the "business" of blogging, but the details are so sparse and basic that you'll have to pick up another book on the subject anyway.
It does a decent job of weighing the pros and cons of different blog services, but, to me, that alone is not worth the price.
Again, if you are a newbie, this book is a good, quick way to get caught up. If not, save yourself the money and buy a different book.

Summary: Just what I needed!
Comment: Starting Your Own BLOGGING BUSINESS was exactly the help I needed! My material? I know it backwards and forwards. But I was baffled as to how to successfully monetize my blog. J.S. MCDougall answered all those questions and didn't write it in 'computereze'. I was able to read it, and understand it, and immediately start implementing some of the suggestions.
As a blogging novice--or someone who has decided to step up the game--this book was a great help!

Summary: Concise, clear and to the point
Comment: This is the first of the three books on blogging that I've read that doesn't contain fluff or drivel. It is a nice, quick read, and yet it gives you all the information you need to get started, while being concise and very clear. I like this book, because it will get me started in developing the three blogs that I want to post.

Summary: Before You Blog, Buy This Book!!
Comment: I found this book after starting 3 blogs. Before, I had low traffic, I didn't quite understand Adsense, and had gotten sucked into phony affiliate marketing programs. After reading the book, my traffic has increased threefold, I've signed up for Google Analytics, and I now have 6 blogs. I have yet to make much money yet, but this book is taking me in the right direction.
