Whose blog do you read?

I like Chris Rempel's information. He doesn't post to his blog on a daily basis or anything but he knows what he's talking about and whenever I get an email from him I head over to his blog and check out what he has to say. Affiliate Marketing – The Smart Way — Super-Affiliates Work Smarter – Not Necessarily Harder…

I like to read www.problogger.net , Darren Rowse lot of good info and very easy to fellow.

mashable and google blog

Passive Income: The Smart Passive Income Blog - Pat Flynn
Online Income | Online Income Lab - Trent Dyrsmid
Quick Sprout - Neil Patel
Niche Pursuits | Find Business Ideas, Niche Websites, and Much More! - Spencer Haws
Business And Blogs - Learn Internet Marketing Secrets With Matt Wolfe - Matt Wolfe


These are just a few...

I really like nichepursuits.com, check it every couple of days.

I unsubscribed from most blogs midway through last year when I realised I wasn't getting any work done. I followed Yaro Starak at Entrepreneur's Journey for a couple of years. Smart guy and great content there. I unsubscribed from him when he changed his blog design and started getting lots of guest writers posting. Kind of lost the personal touch it had from then on. Glenn Allsop Viperchill is very good too.

I followed Pat Flynn Smart Passive Income for almost a year. I think that was what made me unsubscribe from all the blogs actually. Every time I read one of his monthly income reports it made me feel inspired and depressed at the same time. I started thinking, "what the hell am I doing spending so much time reading about other people's stories when I should be creating my own and experiencing the success for myself".

Now if I read a blog it's only because it popped up in search when I was trying to figure out how to do something specific. Two that seem to crop up often are problogger and copyblogger.

I really try to limit the blogs I read to bare minimum. I typically have max 3-4 per one overall niche.

I read few entrepreneurship blogs, few personal development-type of blogs and a few "IM" blogs.

The "IM" blogs I read are:
- Social Triggers
- Viperchill
- Smart Passive Income
- Copyblogger

That's about it.

It doesn't make a lot of sense to me to read more than 5 blogs per one niche as most likely it will be the same information in different package across the blogs. I'll just find the ones I like the best and find most valuable and basically ignore the others.

Generally, I unsubscribe from blogs who post to regularly. I don't know about you but; who has time to read 1 post every few days. Anyway... I always check out these blogs once a week or so:

1. Niche Pursuits | Find Business Ideas, Niche Websites, and Much More!
2. Increase Web Traffic Generation | Targeted Free Website Traffic
3. Blog | Amish Shah
4. Easy Ways To Make Money Online | How To Make Money Online Fast (my own blog)

These days I've really cut back on the amount of blogs I keep up-to-date with.

I use to be really into blog reading. I read every blog post on every IM blog I could find when I was just starting out. Silly me. The amount of time I must have wasted doing that...

Anyway, here are the best of the blogs I've subscribed to throughout the years that I still receive updates from in Google Reader. Take a look through and try to find a couple you enjoy.

I like Jim Cockrum's blog and newsletter. JimCockrum.com. always good stuff

I'm going to deviate from the crowd and tell you that the only blog I follow religiously is a non-IM blog....Steve Pavlina's personal development blog. Some of the older blog posts on there are absolute gems....Just look on the sidebar there for some of the more popular posts. It will get you inspired in every area of your life.

Clearly some pretty decent blogs for someone like me to start reading and the best part is there's lots of it

I read SEOmoz Blog on Daily Basis. It update me about a internet marketing and lots of things.

I love Ruck and Ryan's stuff : We Help People Be Successful Online - IMGrind.com

Keeps me updated on everything Facebook : AllFacebook - The Unofficial Facebook Blog - Facebook News ...

and ofcourse we can't forget the Techrunches and the Gizmodo's

Thanks everyone for posting. Michael I actually read Steve's blog since I am very active in the Tony Robbins community. Thanks for sharing. This gives me a great list of blogs to check over and pinpoint the ones that I want to start following. Thanks again to everyone for sharing.

Thanks to everyone who mentioned how much of a waste of time constantly reading IM blogs is. I was about to start subscribing, but then I realized how much time I'd probably waste reading IM blogs instead of writing content and building links for my web properties

I'm into video marketing, so I do follow Gideon Shalwick =)
Here's the link to his blog http://gideonshalwick.com

He shares great stuffs.

Recently I've published a post of my top 10 authority blogs/websites to look out for:

IM Foundation: 10 Authority Blogs/Websites That Will Fire Up Your Blogging Venture

Hope it is useful for you.

Cheers!

• MRS TREFUSIS TAKES A TAXI (Selected as one of the Sunday Times "best 100 blogs")
• Orwell Diaries 1938-1942 | George Orwell's domestic and political diary entries, posted 70 years to the day after they were written (You didn't know he was still alive and blogging? Oh yes ... )
• Overcoming Bias (an economist's blog on "honesty, signaling, disagreement, forecasting and the far future")
• JDCMB (Jessica Duchen's music blog)
• Stumbling and Mumbling (Chris Dillow's blog)
• Maverick Philosopher (blog of a recovering academician - "study everything - join nothing")
• Books, Inq. — The Epilogue ("the epilog(ue)")
• Will Wilkinson | The Sweet Release of Reason (philosophy, psychology, economics and politics - not necessarily in that order)
• normblog (Norman Geras' blog - often something interesting there)
• thinkBuddha.org (Will Buckingham's blog - not often updated)
• The Lay Scientist | Science | The Guardian (Martin Robbins' blog)
• TPM Online: The Philosophers' Magazine (philosophy magazine/blog)

I read all these on a regular basis - they're not internet marketing related, though.

I read

Forbes Tech
The Onion
Arstechnica
Wired
Salon
GuardianTech
The Daily Beast

I read these by following them on Twitter

I follow people on twitter who post things I am interested in. I don't have to subscribe to any kind of feed, just click on what piques my interest.

Wow. Lot of great suggestions. I could burn some serious time checking these lists out.

I used to subscribe to tons of blogs, but like all of you who've shared the opinion that they're time wasters - I completely agree. Now I watch Twitter in the subject areas I'm interested in and catch links that seem good. Or I might read blogs on a specific topic I'm researching and find through Goggle.

I also check out the Fiverr Blog because you can find good deals there and some interesting nuggets - Fiverr's Blog.

I also read one Empire Avenue daily blog (there are several available) because I'm interested in the community there.

Paul Steinbruck's blog at Empire Avenue Tips gives you a snapshot of who's new, noteworthy and might be someone to connect with in the SM or IM community.

I also suggest Buzzblogger.com of Kim Roach if you want to focus on traffic. : )

Thanks!

Here are the following blogs which I follow as they provide great content:

KimRoach: BuzzBlogger.com
Ryan Lee: RyanLee.com
Sarah Staar: SarahStaar.com
Seth Godin: Seth's Blog

Learn lots of things from these blogs and hope you will find it useful to you too

My Fav is Problogger. Darren Rowse has done something to adore.

Good info, compact . In short- its an all in all

Seth Godin is nice. I used to read it but it got too overwhelming and I started feeling as if I wasn't doing enough so I have stopped reading it. I mostly scan Google news and some industry specific blogs.

i like reading mashable, seomoz, searchengineland, basicblogtips etc they are great for getting in depth knowledge of seo and google algorithms ..!

I like to read my4hrworkweek.com, it's written by one of tim ferris' proteges. He tries to make money online and then discusses what worked and what didnt.

Woah !! This thread is turning out to be rich in suggestions. I posted a similar thread but with all your opinions reagrding Blogs, i can atleast go through basics and know wats going on in the circuit currently.

I read the following blogs regularly: Problogger.net by Darren Rowse, BloggingPro.com, SocialMediaExaminer.com (RECOMMENDED!), Lifehack.org, Pickthebrain.com (MUST READ!), SeoMoz.org, Copyblogger.com and Mashable.com (BEST!)...

I follow Tiffany Dow's blog. I really like how much personality she puts into her posts and how much passion she has for what she does. I also love how much she talks about ethics in IM. That is something I don't see often and something I think is really important for more people to think about.

Smartpassiveincome.com
NichePursuits.com

those are really the only ones I check on daily. I have a couple others I check biweekly though as well.

I follow Smartpasssiveincome.com by Pat Flynn. Think his is one of the very good one that give real value to the reader.

I like John Thornhills blog www.johnthornhill.com lots of great IM articles there. I also drop by Pat Flynn's Passive Income: The Smart Passive Income Blog and Glen's Viral Marketing : ViperChill is a fantastic read, whether you're interested in IM or not he's got something for everybody.

My favs are

smartpassiveincome (Pat Flynn)
Entrepreneurs-Journey
Suitcase entrepreneur
Extramoneyblog (Sunil)
Firepolemarketing (great for bloggers)

I mainly focus on 4 --

1. Tim Ferris Blog
2. Infoproduct Online Marketer's Blog
3. Gary Vaynerchuck Blog
4. Socialmoths

Some days I expand that list, but follow these the most.

Jeff

www.thesimpledollar.com
www.getrichslowly.org
www.thinktraffic.net
www.chrisguillebeau.com

big fan of techmeme, engadget and techcrunch on tech site

read more forums than blogs but johnchow for what he's worth has occasional good stuff but self promotes way too much.

There is not specific choice of bloggers. I search online for nice and unique blogs on various topics and like to post comments. In this way, I not only get new and interesting information on a wide range of topics but also get the chance to interact with the bloggers.

Fool.com: Stock Investing Advice | Stock Research (I write for them too! )

Content marketing software for WordPress | Copyblogger (find some GREAT stuff over there)
Daily Blog Tips (Daniel Scocco has done a great job!)
Passive Income: The Smart Passive Income Blog (love the income reports)
Ron's Website SEO Copywriting Blog (Everybody follows his own blog )

...to be honest, my Google Reader is filled with over hundreds of quality blogs! Can't put 'em all in here.

Here are some blogs that I find interesting, some of them for different reasons.

The Art of Manliness | Men’s Interests and Lifestyle
Way of the Player – Become a Player | Attract Beautiful Women Like a Player
Mens Style, Gadgets, Dating Advice, Grooming, Money, and Humor | ModernMan.com
JibJab - Funny eCards, Birthday Cards, and More at JibJab

I like blogs that cater for the modern man and I think that as a woman this will always be a winning market for you. (a blog that caters for women)

Hello! I love reading different blogs cause I just come across them but what I read on a regular basis is mostly from Chris Rampell. He's really good. I like all of his infos. How about you guys?

KimRoach: BuzzBlogger.com

income diary
social media examiner
jeff bullas

the rest i only see now and then...

One of the blogs that I visits the most is Darren Rowse's blog at problogger.net. It always has helpful, fresh, up to date content.

I read anticareer.com, a lot of good tips on internet marketing

my favorites:
Darren Rowse: Problogger.com
Ryan Lee: RyanLee.com
Sarah Staar: SarahStaar.com

My favourites are:

Smartpassiveincome (I think Pat`s may be the very best and I am always checking for updates!)
Nichepursuits

This guy is brilliant, and offers actionable advice you never see anywhere else:

Conversion Optimization Blog | ConversionXL

This is also a truly excellent place for unique info:

The @KISSmetrics Marketing Blog

Now reading the blog of Mavis Nong - attractionmarketingonline.com. Alexa rating at 48T. Pretty impressive for somebody who knew nothing in 2009. : )

I have to say Buzzblogger.com Kim Roach's blog and PotPieGirl.com are my two favorite. I always come back and check what they have posted. They are always giving great information. I also follow Masonworld.com. That is Mark Mason's blog.

My top three are Problogger.net, Copyblogger and Clicknewz. Other than those, I enjoy TopRankBlog as well. There are lots of great blogs out there, but my favorites are those that offer a relaxed, easy to read piece without the technical jargon that requires so much concentration it gives me a headache

I read buzzblogger.com and I would recommend it as well. I also read Rob-jones.com

I read problogger and copyblogger mainly. But sometimes I do read about chris garret and john chow too. Chow's blog was famous in the beginning but now its pretty much a trash. It is filled with ads and the content sucks now.

for those who are doing ppc/ppv, you guys should follow My Online Journey To Become A Super Affiliate
