Having been live for only a year, we’ll gladly take a moment to pat ourselves on the back for making Blog Rank’s Top 100 list of small business blogs. It’s certainly an honor to be in the company of such well-respected blogs that have not only been around for a lot longer than ours, but who also are viewed as some of the most well-respected bloggers in the small business community.

Here are just a few others on this list we’d like to point out:

–Small Business Trends, run by Anita Campbell, this blog offers fantastic small business and entrepreneur information in all areas.

–Small Business SEM provides clear and easy-to-understand information on all-things search engine marketing for the small business owner.

–Young Entrepreneur Blog is a great site for entrepreneurs who want to learn from others on a variety of important topics.

–Small Biz Bee always delivers good information on some of today’s most important topics in the small business and start-up community.

–Startup Nation is more than just a blog. It’s best defined as a digital small business community. And it is also part of a larger media network that offers multimedia platforms that can help educate the small business owner.

–Allison Nazarian is a skilled copywriter and a past guest author here on the Understanding Marketing blog. Look for more guest posts from her in the future on all kinds of copywriting topics (maybe we can even get her to be one of our #smbiz chat guests??).
