Two Awesome Blogging/Freelancing Resources

April 19th, 2007 · 6 Comments

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or email feed. Thanks for visiting!

When I started I Help You Blog, I knew that blogging was a collaborative medium and something that would enable people from around the world to share ideas.  What I didn’t expect was to actually be able to connect with some many helpful and friendly people, all of whom are willing to help and share ideas.  I found that when you really have something worthwhile to write and share with others, people are so appreciative and that just makes me want to keep the blog alive!

I’m writing this post because I really want to plug someone who I think is just an awesome up and coming blogger with really fresh ideas and thoughts!  If you like reading my blog, then I know you’ll also like reading what Collis Ta’eed’s has to say.  If there is such a thing as a “blogging buddy” then I have to count Collis as my blogging buddy!  Luckily for us, Collis writes profusely at eye-candy designed blogs North x East (his personal/problogging blog) and Freelance Switch (which he also blogs with his collaborators Cyan and Jack).

Collis has been one of the people I mentioned above who has been so willing to listen to my ideas and participate in my blogging discussions.  I am very thankful for that.  His North x East blog has some excellent posts that I often find myself visiting to flush out ideas I have about blogging and making money online.  Some of my favorite posts Collis has written include:

  1. A comprehensive guide to starting a freelance career
  2. The nine essential posts that every blogger should know
  3. A classification of web business models
  4. A comprehensive guide to starting your freelance career (which is really a plug for Freelance Switch)

Frankly, there are many other posts!  I think all of Collis posts at North x East is worthy of a read and many are worthy of a bookmark.  Heck, just make sure to add North x East to your RSS reader!

Also, if you haven’t heard about Freelance Switch, you are really missing the boat on the hottest up and coming blog for freelancers!  Freelance Switch is just so packed with great posts already even though there are less than 30!  Thing is, Collis, Cyan and Jack have really put a great deal of heart and soul into the posts.  And it shows.  3,000-plus subscribers in less than 2 weeks!?   :shock:  They must be doing something right!  Do it now and subscribe to Freelance Switch in your RSS reader.

Some of Freelance Switch’s articles I’ve really liked include:

  1. The monster list of freelancing job sites
  2. The twelve breeds of clients and how to work with them
  3. Staying motivated without a boss (Part I)
  4. 101 essential freelancing resources (the post that launched Freelance Switch into the stratosphere)

Just to set the record straight, this post was not paid, not sponsored.  It is a completely unconditional endorsement of what I believe to be two awesome resources I think my readers would find helpful.  And I do walk the walk on this one–I read both North x East and Freelance Switch personally.

Thanks Collis, Cyan and Jack for all your thoughtful contributions!  And thanks Collis for letting me bounce ideas off you.
