I’ve been inspired by Chris Garrett’s excellent ebook “Killer Flagship Content” to create a Pro-Blogging Flagship Resource for I Help You Blog. I’ve decided to start by creating a massive list of posts, articles and resources all designed to be a go-to reference for the pro-blogger. This will be a work in progress and I’ll be updating the list frequently.
[Last updated March 1, 2007.]
I’m sure I’m missing many other links. If you know of a great resource, please leave me a comment below or send me an email. If I add your suggestion, I’ll update this page with a credit link.

What a great idea!
Looking forward to more resources.
Also on my wishlist for this list: a small comment about each resource to get a bearing if it is interesting or not.

Hi Peter,
Thanks! I thought about annotations but most of the links are self explanatory. However, I will be adding notes to the ones that need annotating soon. I’ve been updating the list since it first went up so that’s what’s keeping me busy!

Thanks for the tip, I’ve added 103bees to the list!
