Blog for Internet retailers by an Internet Retailer

On my quest for good blog sites, I stumbled on one that definitely needs to be mentioned. The e-Commerce and Entrepreneurship Blog by Plumbersurplus.com truly impressed me.

The blog is run by an internet retailer who was one among the Hot 100 Internet retailers of 2008 according to Internetretailer.com. This retailer is also a Multichannel Merchant award winner (MCM) for 2008.


Plumbersurplus.com, a pure play online retailer that offers home improvement, plumbing and building materials. Unlike other retailer blogs which concentrate only on their niche products, the team from Plumbersurplus.com shares their experiences and thoughts with other online retailers on several issues, like customer support, Merchandising, Marketing, Finance, SEO/SEM and so on.

Since its creation in June 2008, around 170 blog posts on different issues have been added to this informative blog. Here is the list of some of the active bloggers/employers of Plumbersurplus.
