Blogology 101

There are few better ways to learn how to do something then to watch others do it. In this philosophy, FreelanceSwitch offers 15 different blogs in order to boost your ability on the blogosphere.

Some of my personal favorites:

Lifehacker One of my favorite sites, the Lifehacker writing team is headed by Gina Trapani and Adam Pash. These guys can do how-tos and referral posts like nobody’s business, and do it with style.

As you probably know, this is quite possibly my favorite site on the internet right now. Not only does Lifehacker offer tips on blogging, its other tips on productivity help you not only with your blogging, but with your life in general.

Get Rich Slowly Along with Trent, J.D. Roth is the top in the personal finance field (which includes a bunch of very good bloggers). J.D., more so than most bloggers, comes off not only as knowledgeable, but humble and sincere — and that sincerity is what wins his readers over every time. Plus his articles are just extremely useful.

While not a blog on blogging per se, Get Rich Slowly is a must-read on its own, simply because there’s no better blog on investments and saving money! Definitely something for the penny-pinching ass in all of us, as well as the broke graduate student (I.E, me.)

You won’t improve until you learn from the pros, so you should read up on this list of blogs. Also, check out Web Worker Daily and Problogger, which are also on the 15 blog list.
