I have mentioned the page numbers also along with the topics, just to show how much to expect about each topic.

This book is carefully crafted and the topics are arranged so nicely that, a beginner to blogging can also understand it clearly. In fact, what I found is, this book is mainly helpful for people who have just heard of blogging and are interested in trying it out.

For those who are in this blogging business for a while will find many things in the book told over and over again in many blogs.And for those who are regular readers of problogger.net, its just the same stuffs that you find regularly, but in an very intelligently organized manner(topic wise).

In the book, we can find links to some useful websites and tools, which will help for all bloggers.

And the topics, I most liked are, Niche Blogging and about passive income tactics.

Each chapter is finished with a tip, a summary or an exercise for the reader, which makes the book look more professional. Darren and Chris have explained all the problems that they came across, in the beginning days of their blogging.

We can find almost all the aspects that a blogger should know to start a blog. And also step by step guidance to setup the hosting and one click wordpress installation.

This book would be, the best source for beginners and a handy guide for those who have been blogging for a while and a reference to advance users.

It would be wrong, if I don’t say that, all the information in this book can be found somewhere or in problogger.net itself. But the positive thing about this book is, it has everything at one place, well organized, well structured and with no extra unnecessary things. Things are written by keeping in mind all kind of bloggers(those who blog for money, fame, networking etc).

And the important thing is, it just costs $16.49.This is not a big amount for those who are aspiring to be professional blogger some day.

If you wish to buy this book, then here is the link for it ProBloggerBook

And it would have been nice, if we had got a FREE CD/DVD, containing some of the video tutorial from Darren, along with the ProBlogggerBook.

Anyway, Darren and Chris, I will be waiting for the Part-2 of the book, and now I am expecting a lot advanced topics to be covered.

And Best-of-luck for all your future projects Darren Rowse and Chris Garrett….
