feelings, and experiences- Published on the Internet for public

(or private) consumption- Updated frequently

What is a Blog?

What distinguishes a Blog

Vs. a Website

A Website- is more formal- reflects the Publishing Company’s goals & advocacy - looks like a portal- usually composed of adifferent writers, editors- motivated by revenue Because it is a business

A Blog- is more personal- is the “virtual soul” of the author- looks like a daily journal- usually a one man show (except for group blogs)- motivated by personal Expression and advocacy

What distinguishes Blogging

Vs. Magazine or Feature Writing

Magazine or Feature Writing- adopts the writing styleof the publication- your writing is edited by anEditor- you earn one time upon submission of the article- you give up your copyrightto your article

Blogging- natural conversation writing. “How you speak isHow you write”- you write and edit yourpost. “What you write is What you publish “- you earn passive income forever

3 Critical componentsof a good blog?

1. Authentic(No Hidden Agenda)

2. Quality Content(it speaks for itself)

3. It gives value forpeople reading it.(it does not wasteyour time)
