Not a Great Audio Book

Although a great book, this is not one I would choose again as an audiobook. There is too much technical information that would be better to have in front of you versus having someone read it to you. I am going to be paying more attention to the type of books I download.

Very Informative...

... yet an easily digested listen for beginners to seasoned, veteran bloggers. Good stuff!

LOVED IT !

Am new to this field and appreciate the time and effort the author made to help so many of us! thanks

Blogger review

While I got many good ideas from this, when the author starts reading long lists of "open bracket, underscore, close bracket, etc etc etc" I wanted to turn him off. Audible books are not the place to do this "programmerish junk". Better to name a blog to go to to see the typed words. The reader has a voice that has a strange accent (for lack of a better term) that really turned me off. Some subjects are better in hard copy than audible books.

Not all of the information was fully relevant to the platform I'm using but overall loads of food info.

Awesome Book Full Of Knowlege

This is a great book from a couple of masters in their chosen businesses. It's always nice to learn from people who have been there and done that. I got tons of great ideas that I had never thought of before. This is a must read if you are interested in blogging and/or online marketing.

Good Book

This book is loaded with information. I also like the authors blogs which are very informative. Some reviewers did not like the narrator. I found his narration fine but could understand why some did not like it. (He sounds somewhat authoritarian)

My only criticism is that perhaps the authors should have listed a web-page or a PDF download for the links. Listening to long URLS is a waste of time since most of us are in the gym, walking or driving a car when we listen.


Note if you are an experienced blogger already making money then this book might be a review for you. But for someone like myself this book is fantastic.

I liked the book so much I purchased his physical book, went back to reading his blog and paid to join his forum.

A lot Of How To With Not Much How To!

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Ok, I wanted to give this book an overall of 5 but I can't. I hate it when authors write a how to book and then leave out the all important priority checklist at the end. Or at least give me a place to go on a website and get it. Heck, I will even take an extra product that I have to buy to get the checklist.

NOTE: to all how to authors out there. If you are going to write a how to book you must provide us with an end of book checklist. Or quick start guide of some kind. You can't just write all this techy stuff and provide us with all this great information, and then leave us totally short with no road map, no goal, no place to start.

Remember we are buying your book because we are totally ignorant of what you are an authority on. Lead us. Guide us. Truly make your book remarkable and deserving of 5 starts and give your reader direction and purpose.

I am sorry no priority checklist, no 5 stars. You don't deserve it no matter how good the book is. NO matter how well it is read and written. No matter how beautifully the book is designed. Look I wanted a checklist so bad that I went and purchased the hard copy book on Amazon, praying there would be a checklist in there. I got the book today. No luck.

Now when I start my blog, I have to poke and pick through each chapter again to find the info I need if I am lucky to even find it. This is a 306 page book, not going to be easy.

So, if you want a book on pro blogging this is a good book with good info and you will get a lot out of it. Just be advised that you will be left hanging on the actual how to part. You will have to figure out your own direction or go out on the web and find a priority checklist from someone out there who you don't really know or trust because let's be honest, you didn't buy their book you bought Rowse and Garrett's book. Nuff Said!

Narrator ruined the book!

I hate to say it, but the narrator really ruined the book... Don't know what kind of "accent" he's trying to pull off, but it's horrible. Makes me cringe, and I barely made it through the book! Sorry...

Great Information Change the Reader.

This was a great book, but the reader was not. Horrible Reader with an very annoying voice.
