A marketing blog worth reading is Econsultancy the articles are just long enough to provide an overview of the topic but not so long that you'll never read the article, the blog posts are daily and the summary newsletter that they send ensures that you can just read the headlines in the email without having to click through to the website if there is nothing of interest.

With headlines like 'The best digital marketing stats we’ve seen this week', 'Six ingredients of enticing browse abandonment emails' and 'Four Google Adwords scripts that retailers can use to supercharge their summer sales' there's always something of interest to read over your morning coffee.

I'm a big fan of Backlinko, because Brian Dean gives great advice about SEO and particularly link building, which in my opinion is a very important part of digital marketing. Why, you may ask? Because unlike paid advertising, SEO and link building help you bring more traffic to your website and acquire new customers for free.
