Bloodhound Blog Launches Real Estate Weblogging 101

The dog pound takes the wraps off a "book in beta blog format" today entitled Real Estate Weblogging 101. It's a learning resource for real estate professionals that culls the history of blogging related posts in digest format from the BloodHound blog.

I'm glad to see anything out there that tries to do something to help real estate professionals understand the tenets of blogging. Essentially this "book" moves one of the categories of the Bloodhound blog into it's own domain. I think it's a good resource for anyone that needs to start or improve a blogging endeavor.

I usually agree with most of what Greg has to say about the issue of real estate blogging. Exploding some of the myths of blogging is a worthwhile endeavor and I'm glad to see somebody develop a learning resource that detours some of the hype and bad advice I see all too often. I've seen real estate blogging advice that gives step by step instruction on how to be extremely unprofessional, all for the sake of creating blog traffic. Amazing. There are many other instances of advice that are centered solely on the idea of quantity over quality. That kind of effort will rarely result in any kind of meaningful, long term business results.

It will be interesting to see how WL101 progresses. I wonder if Greg has plans to eventually print the blog as "dead tree" book?

I'm really excited about the release of this new blog. I already enjoyed reading their existing blog on a fairly regular basis, and the new topics that will be covered in this blog are exactly what I'm looking for!

I have been reading Weblogging 101 one chapter at at time. Well written and informative. It leaves that feel of reading a book.
