Waltham, MA (PRWEB) October 05, 2011
It seems that everyone has a blog these days. But there is a big difference between having a blog and having a successful blog. In Bloggers Boot Camp, a new book from Focal Press, blogging experts Charlie White (Mashable) and John Biggs (TechCrunch) show bloggers how to go from run-of-the-mill to exceptional blogging.
Bloggers Boot Camp shows bloggers how to build a great blog from the ground up. This isn't a book about technology -- it's a book about engaging millions of readers. Bloggers Boot Camp shows bloggers how to:
- Uncover a niche for the blog, and realize key factors about each individual blogger that they need to know before they write a single word.
- Gather the ideal tools for blogging, without spending too much or approaching it underequipped.
- Discover the best ways to spread the word about the new blog.
- Find the most compelling stories to write about, and get the information before anyone else does.
- Transform writing by learning the subtle art of constructing a compelling, engaging blog post.
- Stimulate readers to directly participate in the two-way conversation, perhaps the most exciting part of this new way of communicating.
