My List of the Top 20 Blogs for Bloggers has also been placed on a page on this site for your easy access to it in the future. That way when you want to find this list you just click on the tab in my navigation bar entitled, “Top 20 Blogs” and you won’t have to search for this particular post, cause that’s really a pain in the neck!
You Busted Me! Ok, there are not yet 20 Top Blogs listed but I’m always finding really cool blogs I want my readers to know about, so I left some space to add them to the list in the future without having to change the title and permalink to this blog post!
Why These Are the Best Blogs to Follow!
I love these blogs and I love these bloggers because they “keep it real”. Ok? No hype! No fluff. No fillers. No showing off. Just real blog posts with useful, practical, invaluable information that can help your blog today! Wanna know about the best plugins? Wanna know about WordPress SEO? Wanna know about FREE ways to generate more legitimate traffic to your site? Want more income from your blog?
Then Read These Sites Every Day!
I’ve been a CIW Certified Master Designer since 2003, but I didn’t start designing WordPress Blogs and Websites until January 2010. In January of 2011, I started posting weekly on Jupiter Jim’s Marketing Team blog and decided to get serious about blogging. WOW! I learned real fast that there is a HUGE difference between creating a blog and creating a blog following. Well, I think almost everything I’ve learned about blogging came from the sites listed below. Some, I’ve followed for more than a year and they’ve never let me down. They’ve been honest. They’ve been helpful. (So you can see my blog has only been “active”, with weekly posts, for 15 months now.)

Hi Jim,
That’s a great list, I follow most of them but some are new to me, if I had to choose 3 of them, that would be Hesham’s famousbloggers.net, Ana’s Trafficgenerationcafe.com and Ileane’s Basicblogtips.com, I visit them on a daily basis and everyday I learn something new…
Kostas recently posted..Convert More Traffic With Trusted Logos
Thank you for a great list. No problem not having 20 yet, Jim. Especially since you’ve already got some of my favorites on the list as it is. Blondish, Just Ask Kim and Problogger are three great blogs I have learned a lot from.
They each have different strengths and areas of expertise and I know for a fact that my website writing skills have improved just be reading those three. I am anticipating that they will get even better if I add a few more from your list into my daily reading.

Hi Jim,
Great list! I have been reading Social media examiner for a few years now and I have learned tons from their contributors. Mike is a great example of someone who created a Million Dollar business from blogging. There are a couple of blogs on your list that I don’t know so that will be fun to read them.
I see you don’t have John Jantsch’s http://ducttapemarketing.com – you may consider adding this one. I have found it invaluable.
regards
Clare
Nice list of top 20. that will give some idea to achieve good ranking

Great post, Jupiter Jim! I go to some of these blogs from time to time myself. I must admit that I am focused a lot more on writing than the visual aspects, but I have really learned a lot along the way.
