It's good to learn from the best

So, I have decided to put together a list of blogs that I think you should follow.  Aren’t you glad I have decided this for you?  Of course, it is my opinion, and I hope you will allow me to express my opinion.

These blogs can be put in a few different categories.  There is the category for SEO (Search Engine Optimization), a category for social media, blogging, copywriting, technology, and website design including the use of graphic design.  These are many of the things you should know when running a website and/or blog.

As a bonus, I threw in a blog about running a small business.

If you are in charge of your company’s website or blog, then you need to learn about these areas in order to make your website/blog more successful.

So, here goes.

1.  SEO Book

One of the two best blogs on the internet when it comes to learning about Search Engine Optimization (SEO).  Subscribe to the blog, or just spend a lot of time looking at the posts.  A blog, or website, with no traffic is silent.  If you have the money to invest, they also have tons of great resources.

If you are interested in trends, technology and social media, then Mashable is for you.  They do an excellent job of showing how these things are current.  It is one of the best examples of how to run a news website on the world wide web.  In fact, it might be the best example.
