What Is A Blog

A blog can be said to be a frequently updated chronological publication of an individual’s thoughts, activities, opinions and views on a particular subject, issue or topic. Blog is a short form of weblog. They are arranged from the most recent post on the main page to the older post at the bottom page.

 

In most cases, blogs are written and updated regularly by one person on a particular topic. Except in cases of guest blogging. You can blog on virtually any topic ranging from weight loss, exercise, hobbies, spirituality, recipes, personal diaries, internet marketing, love, relationship, sex, to anything you can think of. There are a whole lot of blogging communities around most of these topics, connecting people from different works of life and cutting across the globe. They learn from, share ideas as well as do business with people with similar interest.
