Everyone has to constantly educate themselves to keep ahead of the game and to improve their business, because of this I decided to share with you the 20 resources I use to learn, improve and get inspired. There are 1000’s of blogs that talk about blogging and internet entrepreneurship but to be honest, a lot are doing it completely wrong and quite a lot are teaching out of date information that will only slow down your chances of becoming a top blogger.

Blog Design Websites

Smashing Magazine

smashingmag 20 Websites That Will Make You A Better Blogger
SmashingMagazine is a great resource for anyone who wants to create a better, more user friend website. Quite often people think design websites are just for designers but I have got my best ideas from looking through them so take advantage of this huge site.

WebDesigerDepot is great for design inspiration and ideas on how to make your blog design unique, which is critical to the success of a business, making it unique to all the other zombie type businesses.

CSS Tricks

csstricks 20 Websites That Will Make You A Better Blogger
The code behind websites is just as important as the design because if you have bad code, you will have a slow website. Something I found out with my first website I built and so learning all the best ways to code and style things is important.

Net Tuts+

SEO is really important, so many internet marketers say SEO is dead and to not worry about it, that is complete BS. If it wasn’t for search engines, I wouldn’t earn even half of what I do today because my traffic would be so much lower. SEObook has all the tutorials would you need to optimize your website for search engines.

SEO Moz

Blogs To Aspire To Be Like

The below 3 bloggers have all been interviewed by me and for good reason, they are doing some really cool things which others should include in their blogging model.

Marketing With You

marketingwithyou 20 Websites That Will Make You A Better Blogger
The reason I like what Alex is doing is because he’s saying “I’m here to work with you” instead of everyone else saying go do it yourself or come work for me. This approach is really cool and something I try to include in IncomeDiary by making myself really approachable and answering 99% of support emails myself. http://marketingwithyou.com


Internet Marketing Speed

internetmarketingspeed 20 Websites That Will Make You A Better 
Blogger
The next piece of the puzzle is monetization, something James Schamko does very well and something I will be going in depth with in my next blog post. He has no paying advertisers yet his blog earnings a lot more than any other blog in his niche. He is so successful at it because he creates a funnel system with email marketing and has no outgoing links so either you buy something via a affiliate program, sign up for his eCourse or leave his site, giving him a high chance of earning. http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com


Gary Vaynerchuk

gary 20 Websites That Will Make You A Better Blogger
Gary gets up here because of his passion for the subjects he talks about, to be successful, you must enjoy what you are doing, even if you make a lot of money, you’re not successful in my eyes if you’re not enjoying it. Provide huge value and enjoy what you do, every blogger should follow that! http://garyvaynerchuk.com
If you’re really considering making a living through blogging, then you absolutely
have to check out Blogging To The Bank by Rob Benwell. In his book, the UK millionaire blogger reveals step by step how he makes as much as $90,480 a month from just a few hours work.
Want to use a similar strategy to how IncomeDiary.com makes money online? Then you definitely have to download the Affiliate Game Plan, this book will teach you exactly how one young entrepreneur made $61,681 selling affiliate products though his site in just 45 days, with NO product or email list!
