What's a blog?
A weblog - blog for short - is a type of website. Blogs are unique from other static website in that they are usually updated often. The main page of the site usually contains the most recent post or posts of the author or authors of the website. Also, blogs often also allow readers to post their comments directly to the site.
All of the factors work together to make blogs a very popular form of website creation, and online community building. If you'd like to try your hand at blogging, here's how to get started.
First, decided on the topic of your blog. Maybe you want to keep a diary of your daily life for your friends and family. If there's a topic that you are interested in, say, politics for example, blogs are a great way to discuss and share your interests and comments on current topics related to your interests.
Once you've decided on the topic of your blog, you'll want to choose a blog software program. The great thing is, some of the best programs and blog services are free!
Many blogging services are based online, such as blogger.com. Just
visit these sites and register with them - many will give you free webspace and allow you to start blogging immediately.
If you want to register your own domain name and run your blog on your own server, you will need to install server side blog software. Not to fear, many webhosts come with an automatic installer called fantastico that will make getting your site up and running quick and easy.
Some of the more popular free blogging software programs are Wordpress and B2Evolution. Doing a search for any of these will get you the free downloads if they are not available through your webhost.
Blogs can be useful for building many types of websites. Examples include, corporate sights for keeping employees and customers up-to-date, travel diaries, niche websites on specific topics, interactive community websites, and more. The ease of posting and editing your blog website online makes blog software useful for many purposes.
