Thread: Blogging Basics

Hi Guys,

I want to share something regarding blogging.

As we all know that a blog is an online journal where you can post your thoughts, observations and comments about a particular topic. Blogs can enable an organization to quickly share information among employees, partners or customers.

Blog needs to set-up in a manner that it resembles web sites, with targeted links, and the way like other typical Web site features. There may be archives of older entries, but the Home Page of a blog is all anyone really cares about. It is organized in reverse order that means from most recent entry to least recent. You can provide testimonial, company news and feedback form on your blog.

Advantages of Blogging

• Team Building
• Breaks Monotony
• Gets Recognition
• Showcases Talent
• Sharing Information

What do you say about blogging? Share your thoughts about the same.

Thanks.

Blogging was ment as a personal internet journal, today is more marketing.

ha ha ha, trust marketing people to take advantage of anything and everything. Same thing happened with facebook, myspace and all of these places.

One thing to remember when blogging is to make sure to include the correct tags for each post.

Definitely true! It used be for a personal journal purpose, but now it is most commonly used to promote something. It has now become a good marketing technique.

Another advantage would be it comes free.. and you can also earn from blogging without spending a single cent.

What I know about blogging is it is easy to build and easy to optimize.

Great points! But I want to share about a company I ran across on the web yesterday. They had a sub standard website to begin with, and one of their many buttons linked to a blog they had not updated since 2008. The company is very small, and in an industry where there isnt a lot of (or really any) evolving information. They basically had the blog so they could say that had a blog. For this company a facebook fan page would have been more than adequate. I just want to caution that if you are a business and you have a blog, having something to say would probably help out, otherwise advertising your blog comes across like the scene in Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion when Romy brandishes her cell phone at the reunion just so she can feel like she is important. No good.

Advertising rules the media
