To tell you the truth, not too many. I'm hoping for many more. What I'd like to see is businessowners blogging about their services, not about prices.

Ray Sandey of ERA Sandey Real Estate is a great example. He has been blogging about twice a month lately, but he posts comments more often than that. Every time he posts something, readers see his name -- and a big part of doing business in Jordan is name recognition.

I would also suggest John Laeger's and Kathy Ghost Hunter's blogs. Each of them are affiliated with nonprofit organizations. They are often telling people what their organizations are doing.
