Guerrilla Social Media Rocks!,
I’m halfway through Guerrilla Social Media and have implemented all the strategies
learned so far. I’m not a technical person by any stretch of the imagination.
In fact I was paralyzed before reading this book not knowing what to do first.
Now I have a clear path…more importantly a specific map on how to get where
I want to go. With that said I highly recommend this field guide to anyone wanting
to do things right the first time and get engaged in the social media space FAST!

|total waste,
Jay Conrad Levinson has written a book of ideas that he dreamed up, but are not based on success stories, case studies or research.
A small business owner would go broke trying all these ideas because there is no proof that they work, or which ideas work best.
It is very easy for an author to write a book that sounds like he has some real knowledge. But very hard to document what actually works in business. This book is NOT based on reality, nor will you learn what really works in social media.
I have a degree in PR with a marketing minor and have worked in the field for 20 years. I like books even if I only get one good idea, but this book is just fluff.
If you really want to get it, wait ’till it’s $1.

|This book will tell you what you need to know to get involved online, build your presence, and interact, share and collaborate.,
I loved it. What a book. These days there are many books on the market that address the basics or the theory regarding online marketiing and the Social Web. At this point I have trouble giving them super high review ratings because they don’t bring much new to the table. One such book I recently reviewed was e-Riches 2.0: Next-Generation Marketing Strategies for Making Millions Online. As a result of my less than glowing review (even though I gave it 4 stars) I got hit with 5 neggies. Anyway, the instant book does not go too heavy on the basics or theory. It is a practical book for the do-it-yourselfer who wants to be lead by the hand on how set up their online presence using social media and Web 2.0 tools. It is well organized and well written and includes an introduction, 15 chapters, and 4 appendices as follows:
0. Introduction
1. Creating your social media strategy
2. Preparation
3. RSS feeds & blogs
4. Building a WordPress powered Web site
5. Podcasting, vidcasting, & Webcasting
6. Social networking & micro-blogging
7. Social bookmarking & crowd-sourcing
8. Media communities
9. Widgets & badges
10. Social media newsrooms
11. More social tools
12. Pulling it all together
13. Looking to the future
14. Measuring your success
15. Conclusion
A. Installing WordPress
B. Creating your own RSS feed
C. Building your own widget
D. WordPress 2.7
Clearly the author is partial to WordPress-dot-com. But there’s nothing wrong with that. WordPress offers great tools and it is a very nice service provider. Chapter 4 talks about WordPress. Appendix A describes the process for setting up WordPress. And Appendix D is kind of a supplemental blurb to Appendix A. I found the Introduction to be great. Chapter 1 on strategy was great, and chapters 12 through 15 were wonderful, too. Chapters 2-11 did a good job of providing tools and tactics to be used in building your online presence.
Building a meaningful and productive online presence is all about (1) interactivity, (2) sharing, & (3) collaboration. This book will tell you what you need to know to get involved online, build your presence, and interact, share and collaborate. 5 stars!

|An Excellent Guide to Social Media and Web 2.0 Optimization,
With the development of the constantly evolving Internet and its new technologies, more individuals and businesses are realizing that success on the Internet requires maximizing their presences in the Social Web. Here Hay (graduate education in computer science, applied mathematics, and psychology; principal owner, Dalton Publishing, and Social Media Power; founder, PlumbSocial.com; regular contributor to many journals and online news sites), an author, programmer, publisher, social media consultant, Web 2.0 developer, and dynamic presenter, provides an outstanding guide to social media and Web 2.0 optimization. Writing for authors, business owners, entrepreneurs, public relations specialists, marketing professionals, publishers, students, and others, she shows readers how to apply and integrate social media tools not limited to blogs, RSS feeds, content management systems, podcasts, videocasts, webcasts, social networks, microblogs, social bookmarks, crowd-sourcing technologies, media communities, widgets, badges, and social media newsrooms. By means of various chapters that are filled with numerous real-world examples and step-by-step screenshots, the author covers the aforementioned nuts-and-bolts technologies of the new, open-source Internet, but she also goes well beyond the basics. Setting forth proven strategies and tactics, future technologies, measurement tools, and more, Hay provides more in depth guidance from a business perspective. While her book can be read from cover-to-cover, it also can be consulted on an as-needed, chapter-by-chapter basis. It includes many useful, value-added features such as detailed appendices and a companion CD with bibliographies, directories, forms, links to other resources, and worksheets. Easy-to-read, but not a beginner’s guide, this expertly-presented, comprehensive, extensive publication will best serve readers who have some background knowledge of the social web and its tools. A significant, worthwhile resource, it belongs in many large public library collections. Highly recommended.

|Social Networking,
I purchased this book to learn more about the various aspects of social media and Web 2.0, how to implement these tools in order to benefit my business, and the implementation of WordPress as a CMS. I’m familiar with building and the hosting of basic websites, but needed to understand how people were leveraging technology to collaborate and share information. I finished reading the entire book last night, btw. The author’s writing style is relaxed but informative and well-suited for the material.
With rapid evolution of web utilities and services available I appreciated the author’s ability to navigate the multitude of options available. A CD with forms and links is provided, but the chapters also include links and a brief summary of what the CD will have in terms of additional support material. I am a college instructor and have read many textbooks, I wish the instructor editions took a similar approach, but alas they generally do not. Chapter material in some cases simply cannot be contained in one area of the text (social tools do tend to overlap functionally, as do most software applications) and the author does a fine job referencing the appropriate areas of the book with pages and chapter. Plenty of actual screen shots and examples throughout were appreciated.
The one area I am still a bit fuzzy on is business application or the marketing function relative to web 2.0. I receive daily updates on how SMB owners should be leveraging social networking sites and was hoping for some help in this area particularly. The end of the book does touch on various strategies, but left me craving more recommendations. Scenarios would have been a welcome addition for service businesses, and other types. This said, there are other books on the market that focus specifically on this area, but exclude the level of detail provided in this Survival Guide. The Survival Guide is a logical place to begin and then pursue the strategy, if warranted. I say this because we 2.0 and eventually 3.0 will persist in our culture regardless of the business application. Business is generally not driving the evolution of the web as much as society’s need to interact is. I’ll mention too that twitter’s “mysterious” abbreviated syntax deserves some attention, including how one might attract followers, and the all too important etiquette.
I originally set out to uncover the options and functions available versus strategic planning. Overall, I feel that I gained a much better understanding of the subject and can visualize how I might incorporate select tactics to benefit my business. I’ll be moving ahead with a WordPress implementation soon, to include a blog and various badges. The add-on recommendations for WordPress are welcome.
I strongly recommend this book to SMB owners requiring information on what web 2.0 technologies exist and their functions. General implementation guidance is provided, but you’ll still have to decide on your strategy and what best suits your needs. Any implementation will consume time maintaining your enhanced online presence (marketing) and time is a valuable commodity.
