What is a blog?
Good question! I bet you didn’t expect to find you are not alone if you are asking this. Nearly 2/3 of the people online don’t have a very good understanding of what a blog is.
A blog, or more correctly called a weblog, is a web based log file. Its nothing more complex then that. But what does that mean? Its a journal kept online for the world to see.
Now anyone can keep a journal online but as weblogs have become more popular software has been created to help create these journals so that no html coding is required, simply type and post.
Now because of these software packages, blogs have turned into something oh so much more then just journals. They have become a way for anyone to share any sort of thoughts or information that flows through there head.
This means blogs are now used to teach people things, they are used to talk about philosophy, things found on the internet, and just about any topic that one can think of.
Anyone can create a blog about absolutely anything, and talk to the world. You could create one and be talking to the world about your favorite sports team, teaching how to sew, or even talking about your favorite bands and posting their latest video’s.
The keys to successful professional blogging are simple. Get readers who are interested in what you are talking about, talk about what your readers are interested in hearing, know what you are talking about, and sell products related to what you are talking about.
