    I’m glad you like it. Adnan wrote the commentary about each of the individual links - definitely a team effort.

  • 6 Jarkko Laine // Mar 11, 2008 at 9:01 am

    Great post! As an interesting side note, there is almost no comments although the post has been highly successful in social media such as Digg and StumbleUpon. :)

    I guess that’s because all we could say would be “great post”.

    Thanks for collecting and sharing the list!

  • 7 Tibi Puiu // Mar 11, 2008 at 11:05 am

    This is definitely a must bookmark resource. Great write up team!

  • 8 Wayne Liew // Mar 11, 2008 at 11:30 am

    Maybe an extra productivity section would be nice? It might add it to over 150 resources.

    Anyway, great compilation here. Will look into some of them to enhance my online activities.

  • 9 Deron Sizemore // Mar 11, 2008 at 12:38 pm

    Great Post! I’ve heard good things about Magento for E-Commerce. Might want to add it to your list?

  • 13 Jason Bartholme // Mar 11, 2008 at 2:53 pm

    Great lists as always, Steven. Personally, I use Zoho for CRM. It’s extremely robust and free for single use. It’s great for a centralized info base instead of having it on one computer or phone.

  • 14 fire-pixel.com // Mar 11, 2008 at 2:54 pm

    I’ve got a lot of these bookmarked at http://Rutomail.com - check it if you want.

    otherwise - good resource of lists to explore. Thanks

    Hey everone. Thanks for the nice words given so far, and for the extra sites/products recommended - I’ll definitely try to make the additions just now.

    Thanks Steven for the post - at the new readers, you can expect a lot more posts like this when Blogtrepreneur relaunched with the new guest authors!

    Great list… I edited a copy of it and added some notes over here:

    To thin down the list to just free stuff… because the task was so tedious.

  • 30 Anita Campbell // Mar 12, 2008 at 7:11 pm

    Excellent list! I’m curious — how long did it take for you to put this together?

    I’ve done some long roundups of resoruces and they have taken many hours. I know the work involved and have to hand it to you. :)

  • 31 Shane // Mar 12, 2008 at 7:33 pm

  • 33 adnan // Mar 12, 2008 at 7:57 pm

    Hey all - thanks for more suggestions and feedback.

    @ Jarkko - LOL - yeah I saw that the post wasn’t gaining much comment momentum. Fortunately though, the traffic was pretty good and we reached 5k uniques yesterday.

    A bit of a downpoint was getting Buried at Digg with 114 votes - we were so close!
    All the incoming links we’re getting now make up for it though!

    @ Anita: I didn’t actually write this post - Steven jotted down all the categories and all the links, so 99% of the credit should be given to him.

    I did the formatting of this post - with the image and the text descriptions next to each, and only that took me around 2 hours of work! But, the results are well worth it!

    I probably spent a few hours gathering the links. For anyone who wants to compile this type of list in the future I have a quick piece of advice. Google is a great search engine, but if you’re looking for these types of resources search delicious. You’ll find much more of what you’re looking for, and less of what you’re not.

    Hal,
    Interesting idea taking out the non-free stuff. One point I’d like to make is that you shouldn’t always skip over things because there is a free option. I imagine you would agree that some things are worth paying for if the legitimately improve your productivity or your results.

    Might I suggest an addition to the Social Network portion? Salesconx is a great marketplace for introductions… if you need to meet a particular person but don’t know their name or where to begin…

    Defiantly been added to my del.icio.us bookmarks :-)

    Thanks for the link to Oprius in the CRM section, glad to see we constantly make these lists :-D

    Craigslist is another great resource. We have used it to find some great local talent.

    Thanks for those CPC and social networking resources. It’s hard to keep up with them all since they seem to multiply every day but few are really worth the time. I’ll be sure to visit the ones I haven’t heard of.

    This is a wonderful temple you have on starting a new business. I felt one thing was missing. I notice under Finding Funding you listed several way of funding the company including business loans, fund raising, etc., but there is another way to easily fund a new business. There is also unsecured finance, which makes it easy for the person to get financing for their business with little liability on the owner. The nice thing about unsecured finance is you only pay what you borrow, not the full amount you are approved for.

    Great list. Thanks for putting it together. I have been looking at using Carbonite, but haven’t purchased yet. Also, one more to add to the contact management and ecommerce list: Infusionsoft www.infusionsoft.com. It does email, contact management, ecommerce, creates webforms, emarketing all in one web-based program, and it’s for entrepreneurs.

    I was actually thinking about building a site that was specifically for this information, but I guess I will just bookmark this page instead.

    What an excellent resource.
    I like the reputation and online management links particularly. I will definitely make use of them.

    In the mean time, if anyone is in need of PPC management as listed above, check out adaid.com.au

  • 87 Julia Bradley // May 13, 2008 at 5:01 pm

    Great list. Very helpful whether or not your business is just starting or has been around for a while. For people interested in online reputation management tools, you’ll want to include Ziggs in your effort. Although Ziggs is listed under social networking here, it’s also an excellent source for creating and managing your online image. Not to be missed. Disclosure: yes, I work for Ziggs. ;-)
