5 Offline Resources for WordPress, Books!
Posted by: admin in Theme Tips, WordPress Tips
There are a million web sites that offer great advice, tips, and tutorials that can help you when creating a WordPress blog. In fact, for the most part, I really do not use the printed word too often when making a web site or get in a bind with some software program. However, there are a number of printed books and publications that can be of use.
The benefit that I see to having a book or magazine laying around the house is that you do not necessarily need to be glued to your monitor while doing research and learning. This helps you think a little more in depth about the material you reading. Also, you can even take a book with you on a train, bus, plane and even have it next to your toilette.
After some research, here is what I found to be available. Most of these books and magazines are easily found on Amazon.
1 - ProBlogger by Darren Rowse
I have been reading ProBlogger.net for a long time now. Now that he has written this book, I cannot wait to read it. I would guess that this book has to be a must read for any blog writer that wishes to get some exposure.
 ProBlogger: Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income: Darren Rowse, Chris Garrett: Books |
2 - WordPress for Dummies
Ok, yah, I know. Whenever I own a Dummies book, I make sure it is hidden from the public eye, I know the feeling. I have read some bad Dummies books but they do seem to be getting better. I would say that if you are a newbie, and have no clue what it takes to set up WordPress, scan the book for 10 minutes, and throw it away.
WordPress For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech)): Lisa Sabin-Wilson, Matt Mullenweg: Books3 - Blogging Heros
I read quite a bit of this book a little bit ago then lent it to a friend and never got it back. This book is full of great stuff, the kind you can really chew on.
Blogging Heroes: Interviews with 30 of the World’s Top Bloggers: Michael A. Banks: Books4- WordPress Complete
This is the kind of book you buy when interested in really getting to know WordPress. Or even good when you get into a coding jam and your eyes can no longer focus on your monitor. Here is a review of the book - Fadtastic
WordPress Complete: set up, customize, and market your blog: Hasin Hayder: Books5 - WordPress: Visual Quick Start Guide
I like these books a lot. They seem to be relatively inexpensive and are really valuable when you just need a glossary or packed table of contents to find something. This version of the book doesn’t ship until August, they do have an older version, but I would be hesitant to buy it because of how fast WordPress changes.
