Diaries of a Blogger

Design

Internet Marketing (or IM for short) is one of the most dominant subjects for bloggers to talk about. There are blog super stars like ShoeMoney.com and JohnChow.com and thousands of other lesser known IM bloggers. Most IM bloggers write as if they are experts when it is clear they are not. Enter DiariesofaBlogger.com.

Content (

)

DiariesofaBlogger.com is a blog dedicated to following Anthony Dinh’s quest to master Internet Marketing. Anthony has obviously been inspired by other IM blogs such as JohnChow.com and it resembles MixedMarketArts.com quite a bit in type of content.

What makes this blog stand out from the crowd is its fresh new outlook. It is a very new blog, its first post was in April of 2008. Being less than 2 months old and have such quality content already is rare. I am excited to watch this site grow and see what Anthony can do with DiariesofaBlogger.com. Normally as site with this amount of content would only get 3 stars, but I upped it to 4 based on its age and potential!

Design (

)

DiariesofaBlogger.com has a very professional, web2.0 feel to it. It is branded very well and the addition of the new mascot is very helpful. I found the site to be easy to navigate. However, DiariesofaBlogger.com suffers from one of the same problems that most Internet Marketing blogs suffer from. Advertising overload. The goal of the blog is to make money, so advertising is expected, but there is quite a bit of it, and this takes away from the overall experience!

Blog Building Tip:

One of the most import aspects of building a blog is to make sure your readers come back. The most effective way of doing so is providing an RSS feed and making it easy to subscribe. DiariesofaBlogger.com is an example of this. On this blog it is very easy to subscribe via an RSS reader or by email!

Conclusion

DiariesofaBlogger.com is an IM blog with a ton of potential. Anthony Dinh has already done a great job with design, branding, and content.
