What is the origin of blogging?
Blogs can be traced back in the 1990’s. Who started them is not known. Although

Blogging as food for the brain
This question about blogging arouse because of the sudden popularity that they
have been getting. If you have been on the
Internet for long, you will notice that the
growing number of blog sites are getting to
be as many as the articles.
Which brings to the questions about blogging. Why the sudden surge? Is it good
for the brain?
According to some of the ‘online experts”, blogging does have positive effects
on the brains of the boggers out there.
For one, blogging helps promote analytical and critical thinking.
The best of the best blogs are full of rich and fresh ideas promoting both helpful
exchange and criticism. Instead of creating
a closed and exclusive online community, these
blogs enhance discussion and interaction among
other blogs.
What’s more, the information you can get from blogs are one in a million. You
will not get them from anywhere else. Aside
from that, you are always free to comment
on what is written. Constructive and destructive
criticisms are welcome too.
Blog posts links to web sites where readers can proceed to get more information
and sources. These blogs can even be linked
to things being talked about for credibility
and authenticity.
There are also some blogs that are based on personal opinions about events, technology
or anything that has caught the fancy of the
author. Unlike articles, blogs need not be
too serious or too technical. Some are actually
random thoughts put in a certain format.
Based from studies, consumers are likely to comment on or question what they
read more than what they see on television
or in pictures. If you notice, blogs tend
to have more readers tuning in to see how
a particular topic will develop day by day.
Second, blogging is a powerful means of promoting creativity and initiative thinking.
To maintain their popularity among readers, blogs need to be updated regularly.
This constant demand for output encourages
a kind of spontaneity and 'raw thinking’.
In simple terms, this is the brief associations
and the occasional strange ideas that are
rarely found other formal types of media.
Blogging fosters spontaneity since blogging updates can be posted in a matter
of clicks whenever a new idea or interesting
information is found. Blogging is perfectly
suited to follow the plan for promoting creativity.
They emphasize that you should be sloppy enough
so unexpected things can happen but not so
sloppy that you cannot find out that it did.
Spontaneous and raw ideas in blogging are also a means of awakening an association
of ideas that are not often brought out.
But this does not mean that blogs do not follow the “norms” dictated in print
ads. On the contrary, their permanent search
engine positions force them to maintain some
sort of “decency”.
Blogs encourages analogical thinking. Recent international surveys show that
students in the US are falling behind most
of their first world peers in problem solving
and critical thinking.
It can be noted that this fall may have resulted from the decline in school-based
instruction in critical analysis, idiom, and
influential writing.
Bu then, thanks to the many professional persons like lawyers, theorists, and
academics that are running many outstanding
blogs, people can now benefit from their intellectual
thinking and the use of their analogical thinking
when corresponding with the dommon people
of the blogging world.
Sometimes too, blog-based interactions between experts give a unique opportunity
for young thinkers to observe and assess arguments
from analogy on an ongoing basis. This can
also help develop their own abilities to think
analogically.
Blogging is also an effective means of getting more access and exposure to excellent
information. Blogs link many data and arguments
in branching threads. They also affix primary
source materials and reference works.
This way, they can promote deeper understanding and exposure to quality information.
In turn these sources can start other innovative
projects.
Lastly, blogging merge the best of single with social interaction. It is said
that invention is thought of alone yet the
valuable effects of brainstorming with a community
of intellectual peers develops the idea.
With all these said, it can now be concluded that blogging can really be good
for the brains. It is a form of education
that can take any individual into the next
level of development.

Avoid the common traps in blogging
Are you one of those that do not yet have the capability of blogging to help
your business? Then, you are way behind all
the others.
Professional and small businesses alike have already taken their marketing into
blogs to communicate and keep in touch with
their target customers and consumers alike.
You may have heard about it already. How people already have their own blog sites
and how they work successfully with their
niche market. Reports have also shown how
their profits have been boosted because of
blogging. These and among other things are
enough for you to jump up and start blogging
right away.
What you may not know about is that there are also many bloggers who have fallen
into some of the pitfalls of blogging when
they first started their own. And take note,
these are the same persons who are so good
in running their business.
Now, the question. Why do this competitive and successful people fall short when
it comes to blogging?
The answer? Blog pitfalls. Not knowing what are these and how to best avoid them.
What are some of the pitfalls in blogging that you need to be aware of to ensure
you do not make the same mistakes that others
have fallen into.
1. Writing nonsense instead of writing answers to questions your consumers have.
You have not undergone keyword search or asked
your clients what they want to know first.
And you may be thinking that blogs are just
like diaries online.
With this beliefs, all you write about is you, your life and other related details.
You are actually drifting away from your target.
And you are contradicting the business building
tool capability of your blog.
2. You pretend to be an expert in order to build more credibility but in reality,
you do not have any idea about the blogging
software you are using. You can blame this
part on the new technology being used on blogging
that you are not an expert on. But that is
not reason enough.
You need to research and learn more about how to use your blog features before
you even start one. Get to know how to make
use of your blogs for visibility and accessibility
over the Internet. Have a basic knowledge
about trackbacks and permanent link features.
They will prove important and necessary.
3. No blog category. The readers are confused about what topics are you writing
about. They do not have any idea what they
are getting into. They probably would not
even attempt to find yours if they have to
guess first what it is you are trying to say.
What is your main message? Your focus? What will be in your blog that your readers
can benefit from? Try to answer these questions.
4. Your blog does not reflect you and your business. Your blog is a mess and
your customers cannot seem to find any similarity
between your blog and your business.
Your blog should be an extension of your business. Make your customers feel like
they are doing business with you in the comfortable
ambiance of your office. Your blogs should
reflect your business image.
5. You have no idea about other blogs in the same field. You do not spend time
looking at other blogs to see what is being
written about and to see the strategies that
others are using. You do not know what is
happening on the market.
Blogging takes commitments. You have to let your readers know that you are present
and that they are able to contact you through
your blogs. Give some of your time to your
blogs.
6. Your blogs have no appropriate contents posted. If all you ever have in your
blogs are advertising and marketing about
your products, expect your customers to get
bored, go away and never come back. They have
had enough of sales being presented to them.
Spare them the sales talk. Try to write something not about what you are offering.
Find other related topics you can talk about.
7. You have not visited your blog site for some time. One of the sins in blogging
is not updating what is written. Expect to
lose the traffic you have been getting.
If you are not doing anything about your blog, why have one in the first place?

What are seven ways of setting up a successful blog?
1. Write important and unique contents. You can also narrate and share stories
to highlight your knowledge and expertise.
Never forget how telling your readers how
you deal with clients. Let them know the value
of what you are offering. And make it easy
for them to contact you if they have questions
to ask or if they want to avail your services.
2. Put up something new twice or thrice weekly. It does not to be very long articles.
Short articles are fine as long as the essence
and value is there.
3. Link to other useful resources available on the web. This is very important
in order to build traffic expanding your target
market. You can research online for topics
you can post that is related to your site
offering. If possible, write out comments
on other blogs. Let them know that you are
spending time reading about them so they know
that you are always available.
4. Do not forget to submit to blog directories and do trackbacks. If you do not
have any idea how to do this, get the help
of someone that is an expert on that field.
You can also read some blog tutorials available
on some sites. Ebooks are also offering some
tips and techniques on how to go about blogging.
TIP: The Blog And Ping Tutorial will show you how to get your blog indexed in the search engines fast.
5. Keep track of your visitors. Have a counter set up in your blog so you will
see who has been reading your posts. This
will also help you in figuring out the number
of people that are coming in and coming back
to your blog.
6. Make a list of all your products and services. Check if the landing pages
are linked correctly. Nothing can turn off
visitors quickly than having been linked to
some site not in any way related to your blog.
If you have a shopping cart, you can use your
affiliate links and ad tracking features for
easy access.
7. Remember to link to your own website and vice versa. It is better to have
a different site dedicated to your blog than
having one incorporated to your website. Having
it separately increases your chances of getting
more and varied types of visitors. Why do
your advertising in one when you can do it
in the ways.
8. Blogs should not be pure “sales talk”. Readers are a lot smarter nowadays.
They can sense marketing from afar. If this
happens, they will not be interested in continuing
on because they do not want to be marketed
on. They encounter those things everyday so
spare them the suffering.
9. Be patient. Although there are some blogs that work right away, some takes
time. Update, update and update but do not
expect instant result to come pouring in.
Just sit back and think of other techniques
you can use to your blogs to make it more
successful.
Blogging should not be set aside as something unimportant. It can be very useful
for you once you know what you are doing.
Blogging is your road to search engine optimization
What is the importance of blogging to search engine optimization.
Search engine optimization is the newest trend among online marketers. Today,
companies have recognized that one of the
most effective ways of getting free advertising
on the Internet is to show up first under
relevant search terms in the various engines.
Trying your best to get into the system can sometimes make your site bounce back
search engines in the process. But then there
are some ways of making sure that both the
architecture and the content of pages is as
friendly as possible to the search engine
spider.
That is why web site owners are continuously conjuring up techniques for search
engines to read them as one of the best. The
newest addition to doing this is though blogging.
Search engines are in love with blogs.
TIP: You can submit your blog and/or RSS feed to over 58 top directories and search
engine submission sites automatically with
the handy RSS Feed Submitter .
Blogs come complete with permalinks, regular updates and with the newest and
accurate content. All these in one package
is enough to make spiders not want for more.
There are also blogs that spider do not like. Some blogging habits are less useful
to spiders than they could be. News oriented
and political blogs have the tendency to link
the phrase "read the whole thing" most often.
This is just fine for humans since they are able to see the link in the context
of the post. But a spider do not have the
capability to do this. Although they can read
the contextual part of your blog, they do
not really comprehend the “whole thing”
part.
If you want your blogs attain higher search engines positioning, keep in mind
that the spider is the one that determines
if you are worthy of the rank.
Below are some spider-sensitive factors you have to consider when creating a
post for your blog.
Use a descriptive title. Titles or headlines are given more focus by search engines.
It is important that you think of a good one
for your blog post. Better use highly targeted
keyword phrases that will best describe the
content you are writing about. Do not create
one that has been used over and over again.
Be creative and think of something spiders
do not get to see often.
Emphasize what needs to be emphasized. Be sure to make use of the same targeted
keywords that you use in the title to the
content of your article. You can have repetitions
of words that are important. Make them bold
or use them in external links. In using your
keywords, do not make it appear redundant.
Use them and make sense at the same time.
Put yourself in the search engines’ shoes. Search engines have clever algorithms
to bring relevant results. Unfortunately,
they do not have the intelligence inherent
in humans. Choose your words wisely. Using
shortcut or idioms is not wise. Use standard
words and go directly to the point.
