Top Ten Blogs for Entrepreneurs
From Scott Allen, About.com:
With more and more people jumping on the business blogging bandwagon, it’s getting to the point that there is far more out there than you could ever hope to read on a regular basis. To help you filter that infoglut down to a more manageable level, here is my list of the ten most practical blogs for entrepreneurs.
NOTE: Blogs come and go, and several of the blogs originally listed here have either been discontinued or become relatively inactive. I’ve moved those to the honorable mention section because they earned the honor at the original time of this post, but I’ve added some of my new favorites in their place.
- Small Business Trends - Anita Campbell looks at the latest trends affecting small businesses and entrepreneurs. A must-read for entrepreneurs.
- Just for Small Business - Full of thought-provoking tips for small business owners from Denise O’Berry, I like this blog because the topics are often unexpected - not your usual small business fare.
- WorkHappy.net - Carson McComas lives up to this blog’s subtitle of “killer resources for entrepreneurs” by providing links and reviews of “killer” applications and other resources to help entrepreneurs work smarter, not harder.
- Duct Tape Marketing - John Jantsch delivers 2-3 small business marketing tips weekly in easily digestible, actionable bite-size chunks.
- The Entrepreneurial Mind - Jeff Cornwall, Director of the Belmont University Center for Entrepreneurship, looks at trends in small business and entrepreneurship and their impact on individual business owners.

- Business Opportunities Weblog - Dane Carlson mixes links and commentary on legitimate business opportunities with his thoughts and personal experiences regarding entrepreneurship.

- Young Entrepreneur Journey - Michael Simmons, bestelling author of The Student Success Manifesto explores what he calls “Extreme Entrepreneurship”. It’s a new blog, but the content is already outstanding.
- Startup Spark - Ben Yoskovitz provides a steady supply of business tips, plus some in-depth discussion of things like entrepreneurial passion, social entrepreneurship and dealing with business failure. Startup Spark also hosts the new Carnival of Entrepreneurs.
