Blogging
Blogging got its name from the term ‘blog’, itself a short form of ‘weblog’, which again is a blend of two words, ‘web’ and ‘log’. A blog is a repertoire of web publications stored in reverse chronological order, which means that a new entry comes on top of the one just preceding it. Anyone who looks after a blog, writes for and maintains it is said to be ‘blogging’. Blog-posts are articles posted on a blog by a ‘blogger’.
Blogging is very similiar to online diaries containing both images and text.It is constantly updated and usually focuses on subjects like fishing,camping trips or just details on a person’s daily life.
Parameters of successful blogging
Before you start your own blog, here is a quick checklist:
1. Do you know your blogging subject well enough?
2. How conversant are you in your subject of blogging? As a rule of thumb, expect to contribute yourself for a good length of time before others join in.
3. Look for a niche category for your blogging, subject of course to the conditions above.
4. Are you in a position to devote time to your blog? Unless there are regular updates and a genuine willingness to do so, it is difficult to succeed.
