Like most second editions the changes made to the Authority Black Book 2008 aren’t huge, but they’re very necessary.

Authority Black Book 2007

I read the Authority Black Book 2007 as a beginner blogger, about a year ago. It was very overwhelming and very essential. I used it as a checklist of things that must be done, in order to forward my online ventures. A friend sent me the 2008 edition of Authority Black Book, a couple weeks ago, and I had realized I have yet to mention this interesting tool.

What’s new in Authority Black Book 2008?

John Chow is a very controversial figure in the blogging-for-money landscape. This is probably the reason why he makes so much money.

Living proof you don’t need to rank #1 on Google

John Chow has been famously penalized by Google and he simply doesn’t exist, as far as Google is concerned. But you couldn’t not find him, even if you tried.

The ClueTrain has been on track since 1999, and what used to be its prophesy is now full on reality.

I’ve heard of the Cluetrain before, I’ve even reached the site on numerous, separate occasions, but I never really stopped to read it. A week ago a friend recommended it, so I read it, and boy does that prove the Cluetrain point!

What’s a Cluetrain?

Rich Schefren had only released The Attention Age Doctrine Volume 2, three months ago, and already he’s come up with his next big report: The Maven Matrix Manifesto.

Rich Schefren has been keeping busy, and lately he’s also managed to get into my good graces. I’m starting to think maybe The attention Age Doctrine Part 1 was just a slip up, because when Schefren wants to, he really gives his readers value.

I’d love to call Mark Joyner the most revolutionary man in our industry, but he’s not just an internet marketer and hasn’t just been one for a long time.

The more I read Joyner the more I tend to like him

I’ve written before that it wasn’t love-at-first-site-visit for me and Mark Joyner, but my respect for this man deepens with each amazing launch he makes. While others talk about giving value to your prospect, Joyner owns it.

A look at The Rise of the Author

First of all: Go read it. Just do it- it’s that good. What’s so good about it?

If you’re a beginner blogger, or just want to move your blog to the Wordpress service, Yaro Starak’s and Gideon Shalwick’s Become a Blogger is just for you.

The Many Faces of Gideon Shalwick

I first heard of Gideon Shelwick from Yaro Starak. Shalwick has two internet marketing sites. Internet Marketing Wizards- an interview blog, with all the big guns, that exhibits his professionalism. And Internet Marketing News- an internet marketer-oriented entertainment site, which exposes a gayer side of him. Both top notch, whether you’re looking for a little mind-numbing internet marketer-targeted entertainment (find more here), or professionally done interviews with all your favorite internet marketing gurus.

The past few months have brought me to a boiling point. As I couldn’t find any worthy freebies to review, I went head-first into my treasure chest of long-lost free reports and retrieved something worth reviewing: Rich Schefren’s Internet Business Manifesto.

Schefren Begins

Rich Schefren was no novice, when he wrote The Internet Business Manifesto, in early 2007. He was behind the scenes of Mike Filsaime, John Carlton, Jay Abraham, Dan Kenny and many more, which he is typically not bashful about mentioning. He has been a coach and consultant for a while, but I guess it was high time he expanded.

Gabe & Max and how you can become a better marketer.

Every once in a while I gotta kick off my shoes and relax to some entertainment. For a while, now, I’ve been on a crusade to find entertainment, geared at the internet marketer. Lawyers get TV shows, cops get TV shows, doctors, detectives, journalists and even desperate house wives. So why don’t internet marketers get TV shows? Probably because you won’t sit through 25 minutes of some guy, sitting in his pajamas, in the basement (known as the “Home Office” ) hacking away at his computer.

Internet Marketing Entertainment exists

All is not lost, my internet marketing colleagues! As more and more people are becoming aware of internet marketing, the college humor and smart-ass parodies are on their way. (Yes this does mean you should worry about your methods and the future of internet marketing, but that’s for after the short video.)

An astute friend from StumbleUpon, noticed I’m into internet marketing and sent me this little piece of internet marketing parody. These guys are low-tech, but excruciatingly on the mark. Hope you don’t scare easily

How do you grow your small blog? The Marketer Review presents: Search for Blogging- a case study.

What do you want out of your blog? A solid readership, a recursive income. Mert Erkal, from Turkey, has managed to do this. All he had to do was play by the rules that the market has established in the last decade. Search for Blogging is not yet big, but it’s growing rapidly and already has over 1000 readers per day.

How did Erkal do it?
