Bloggers certainly love to read other blogs, but they also may be able to generate powerful resources from books on the subject of blogging. Here are three must read books for anyone who is serious about corporate blogging on a successful level.
1 – “The Corporate Blogging Book: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know to Get it Right” by Debbie Weil.
Many consider Debbie Weil to be one of the pioneers when it comes to corporate blogging. Not only is she an advocate for corporate blogging in this book, but she also goes into thorough explanation of the pros and the cons associated with corporate blogging. She also goes over the top twenty questions about corporate blogging, and then she goes even further by going in depth on the three most important things that you can know before you begin a corporate blog. The book also provides excellent examples of policies to uphold when blogging, such as reading other blogs by subscribing to them. The suggestions in her book can easily benefit everyone looking to start a blog, corporate or otherwise.
2 – “Naked Conversations: How Blogs are Changing the Way Businesses Talk with Customers” by Shel Israel and Robert Scoble
