10,000 Links That Bloggers Can’t Resist (Your Ultimate Bookmark)

Well, not exactly 10,000…yet. I’ve decided to empty out my favorite bookmarks related to blogging, and to publish them right here. I personally recommend all of the links on this page. The reasoning varies - from being a necessity, to just being amusing.

I will leave this post on the front page of SlamBlogger and continue to update it, so that it becomes an extremely useful resource for all bloggers (especially those of you who are just starting to blog). This list is not complete, so be sure to check back for updates. I will especially continue to update the “articles worth reading” and “blogs worth visiting” sections. I decided to just add a few for now, to get the list going.

By all means, if you have anything you’d like to share, that bloggers would find useful and/or interesting, please let us know in the comments. If I believe that it deserves to be in this list, I’ll add it.

    Hey Slamblogger,
    Thanks for the mention! You have a nice resource of links here. Did you want to be included on the IM Top Blogs list?

    Hey this is is a very hadly list indeed. I suggest adding ‘Google XML Sitemaps’ plugin (found over Wordpress plugins site) as it help in indexing the the blog over google correctly.

    Noreover the generated XML file can be linked and added to your blog over ‘Google Webmasters’ or any other service.

    very interesting to see what like to use and consider the must reads…….. nice :)

    Thanks everyone!

    @Gyutae - Sure, that would be nice. I was actually kind of surprised I didn’t see myself in the top 3 there. Who is this ProBlogger? ;-) Jk!

    @Monica - Thanks, that keeps me motivated to continue updating it! I know a lot of this would have saved me time when I first started out as well. I think a lot of bloggers forget that many of the resources they believe to be so common, are unknown to new bloggers.
