Blog – Short for web log, blogs and blogging have quickly become a popular way to communicate, but they are also an excellent tool for marketing. Blogs allow people to write their own personal experience and opinions on certain products or services in a more intimate tone. This often encourages readers to check out the business that has been mentioned, making it an equitable form of marketing online.

If you are setting up a blog, you will need a platform, a web host, and a domain. A blogging platform is a computer software program that allows you to write posts and to update your blog. Your platform is also what you use to design the look of your blog, from color scheme to font size.

The web host is sort of like the virtual file cabinet where your blog is stored. Your computer communicates with the host when you upload or edit a post. The domain is the online address of your blog, and usually ends in ‘dot com’.

Now that you know what a blog is, what a platform is, and what domains and hosts are, congratulate yourself! You have passed the first step blogging.
