Blogging A Free Platform For All

 

Blogging which started back in then in 1997 was not really given much attention. (I don't think was a money machine then). During the early days of blogging it was refereed to as a weblog which has long been coined to blog. It was mainly used by politicians (electoral candidates) who used it as a publicity medium for their campaign and a few other individuals who probably used it for criticizing the government.

Ever since the invention of blogging it has been a free platform for users except for those who wanted to add more features like registering of domains, buying premium templates etc.

The fun in blogging is that everything is your choice. Important decisions, articles (posts), audience, design, domain name, everything is design just to suit your taste. Its yours and with hard work you can become that rich n famous celebrity just the same way Linda Ikeji, Jide of Ogbonge blog made it.

What is a Blog

A blog is a discussion or informational site published on the World Wide Web and consisting of discrete entries ("posts") typically displayed in reverse chronological order (the most recent post appears first). Until 2009 blogs were usually the work of a single individual, occasionally of a small group, and often covered a single subject.

Blogging lets creative individuals showcase their hard work without having to pay a dime but in recent times a blog is more of a website as many teenagers are busy creating awesome designs and running news, technology and even gossiping with the platform as the platform has a friendly interface for both newbies and pro-bloggers. Its a platform for all both old young and old.

Do you know blogging might just be a cure to your boringness? Yea it can, happened with me before i started blogging. If you still don't understand what am talking about do not worry dear just continue you are few steps away from making money from what you love do.

Blogging Requirement

As the saying goes "To receive you must learn to give". So blogging too takes something from you and give you cash, popularity and an opportunity to express yourself as a payback. Many might see it as a disadvantage but to me a serious person should find this simple. Lets take a brief look at the requirements.

Time: Time is an important factor in demanding the rate at which you will succeeded. This is important as having a blog requires create articles at list one a day depending on you, likes of Linda post over 20 articles a day so blogging needs time. And for those in the tech blog, you might not publish much daily but it requires time to  discover new tweaks daily except you are a copy paste. So have this before thinking about running a blog on any Niche.

Internet Access: Though many bloggers use mobile phone for their blogging i tell you i do not advice you to as you will be missing out of a lot of tweak. During my early days in blogger i only had a mobile phone and i did everything from there but as i started using laptop, i realized that all my designs where having a funny look on Desktop view.

If you do not have a laptop that should not discourage you from running a blog. As you can use the Cyber Cafe at least once a week to see how your blog is doing great Linda did this at her early days in blogging.

Creative Mind: You can have time in plentiful and have over hundred laptops but without a creative mind you will just be limited to copy and paste which is not good for your blog. Its unhealthy to do things so if you still don't know how to create your own article, don't be frustrated but just take your time and read ebook written by successful bloggers.

It helped me when i was having problem with creating my own articles from nothing. You should do same.

Reasons Why you Should Have your Own Blog

Well starting a blog to me is something you won't have fear of loosing anything, Its free and you work whenever you like. No body can question you on what to write on, when to write (pornography is not allowed by blogger, i don't know about the others). Lets get detailed on why you should have your own blog.

Its free and Easy to Manage: Blogging is free and when you are working on a blogging platform which ever one you choose its always user friendly.
