Netzwertig, the #1 amongst German language techblog, has followed up on the initative from StyleSpion and has shortlisted a number German language techblogs worth keeping track of.
(“A ♥ for Blogs”)
Since Exciting Commerce had the unexpected honor of being named one of Germany's top tech blogs, we felt compelled to join in on the movement and list out the most valuable German language e-commerce blogs which come to mind. This may be of particular interest to English speaking readers who, faced with the annoying dependence on translation tools, may want to focus in on key sources of German related e-commerce news.
- Alexander Ringsdorff’s Blog: Alexander Ringsdorff (CEO of Visions new media GmbH) has only recently started blogging, but hopefully will continue to for quite some time on several topics of e-commerce including Magento.
- Boersma Zwischendurch: e-commerce strategist Thorsten Boersma writes only sporadically. But what he writes is mandatory reading for anyone interested in the developments in the fashion industry.
- helloingo: With Ingo Schnall there is finally an industry expert who is both competent and committed to blogging on teleshopping und videocommerce, for us an Exciting Commerce blog honorary.
- Kassenzone: The New Business strategists from Otto Group, Alexander Graf and Florian Hermsdorf started their private blog one year ago to write about market developments in the e-commerce-area.
- KAT Mailorderblog: Mail-order expert Martin Groß-Albenhausen thinks beyond the confines of the traditional catalog mail-order business and delivers a very unique perspective on e-commerce developments.
- LiveShopping-Aktuell: This blog from the similarly named live shopping portal, although in recent times a bit inactive, remains a good source of information for live shopping fans.
- Mail-Men: It's hard to categorize the blog from Sven Sawatzki. It covers a lot of what others don’t. His focus lies with the big name mail-order houses.
- Shopbetreiber-Blog: Ulrich Hafenbradl and his Trusted Shop Team demonstrate how a commercially successful business blog can look like. If you overlook the self-promotion it's still the best blog for traditional e-commerce topics.
StyleSpion claimed that the German blogosphere is stuck in a depression. But that can’t be said for the e-commerce area, which has on offer dozens of blogs of every color and flavour. Further tips are e-driven, Handelskraft, Handmade 2.0, Shopanbieter, Shopping 2.0, and perhaps more to be named here.
