The Apocalypse Blog Book 1: End of the Old

The Apocalypse Blog Book 1: End of the Old Review



"The world is broken. It's broken and it wants to kill us. All of us. I think it might succeed."

On Christmas Eve, a bomb tears apart the city where Faith MacIntyre lives. At first, it feels like the whole world has ended. After a while, Faith realises that feeling might be right.

Help stops coming, communications break down, and Faith's group is increasingly isolated. They push on to get to the hospital, the last hope for their injured, fighting loss and starvation and other, desperate people who have turned to violence in the darkness.

Worse, it seems as if nature itself is broken and turned against them. Acid taints the rain, dissolving the city around Faith and her group. They soon realise that the hardest battle to fight is the one for hope.

This is the first installment of Faith's journey, with new, extended content!

Contains violence, occasional swearing and adult themes.

Sticky Readers: How to Attract a Loyal Blog Audience by Writing More Better

Sticky Readers: How to Attract a Loyal Blog Audience by Writing More Better Review



Sticky Readers is a humorous, but helpful book about writing better blog posts. While the book is helpful for all writers, it was written with bloggers in mind.

Sticky Readers explains the various ways to make your writing more engaging (i.e. less boring) so that a reader will "stick" around for the whole thing, rather than read the first paragraph, get bored and leave.

Sticky Readers is not a book about English grammar, but a book about how to tell an engaging story.

It also includes a section about combating writer's block and a list of Top Ten Mistakes that bloggers make to drive readers away.

SEO For Blogs (ABCs Plus Basics for Websites and Blogs)

SEO For Blogs (ABCs Plus Basics for Websites and Blogs) Review



SEO Basics for Blogs - *This is a transcript from a podcast roundtable discussion* There is an extensive list of resources and links at the end of the book. Also, we aren't trying to sell you anything, isn't that refreshing?

Blogging ABCs hosts Deborah Carney, Tricia Meyer, Vinny O’Hare, are joined by guest Eric Nagel in a roundtable discussion about the basics of SEO tactics for bloggers. Eric supplied us with an excellent outline, there is excellent discussion on each of the bullet points, plus a ton of great stuff that came out within the discussion.

This is a transcript of a podcast, we know a lot of people prefer to read and not necessarily listen. Included are 17 pages of SEO basics that even some experienced webmasters may have forgotten. At the end of the book is a resources page with lots of great references for you to implement the tips with.

Keyword research - Take your idea, and think about how people are going to search for it

Title Tag - This should be your keyword. Don’t be cute here, the title tag in WordPress is inside an H1 tag, which helps with on-site SEO

Meta Description - sometimes used for the snippet shown in organic search results

Permalinks - Don’t use default of ?p=87 - Choose one of the options that has %postname%

Images - Don’t hotlink images - Use the Title, Alternate Text & Caption fields - Name the image with your keyword
ex: your-keyword-here.jpg

Social Sharing - Twitter and Facebook buttons

Your social circle influences Google search results

Sitemaps - several resources listed in the Appendix of the book

We even have a place where you can go and ask questions when you are finished reading the book.
