Blog definition: Blog is another word for example blog. A weblog is a website that is like a diary or a journal.
Most people can create a blog and then write on that blog. Bloggers (a word for
people who write on blogs) often write about their contributions towards a
particular thing and their thoughts.
THERE
ARE DIFFERENT TYPES OR KINDS OF BLOG
1: vlog: this
kind of blog contains video material. It’s also called a video blog or video log,
usually shortened to a vlog
A vlogger is a person who makes or creates videos and posts on his weblog. this kind of video is usually
a tutorial video.
2: recipe blog: this is purely a blog that contains
only particular videos, like food recipes, quality content
Creation recipes, etc
3: Writing blog: this type of blog contain only
written note and no video is attached to it. However, a writing blog contains more written notes and very little video maybe just to enable
the audience to have a clue about his or her written
opinions via visualizing it.
BLOG ANALYSIS
When a person writes on a blog, what they write is in the form of a post, which
is a single piece of writing on the blog. Posts often include links to other
websites.
Blogs can have one or more writers. If they have more than one writer, they are
often called community blogs, team blogs, or group blogs because the thoughts are made by more than one person.
I RECOMMEND ONLY TWO FREE BLOG DOMAINS TO START AS A
BEGINNER.
1: Google blog usually called blogger.
2: WordPress blog.
How to create a Google blog (blogspot.com)
Step 1: you must have a working e-mail account
step 2: visit blogger.com and click on Create account
3: Choose the title of your blog. in this case, you must have a niche for which you want to write for. However your Niche determines your title. Example of Niche:
Technology, Edu, food recipe, pets, Health, fitness, style or
fashion, News( business, politics, etc)
Step 4:click on Enter address, in this case, you have to enter the name of your site remember to make your site
address related to your niche for this will help in the future.
Step 4: Choose
your theme then scroll down and click Create or save
Congratulations your new blog is ready.
ADVANTAGES OF HAVING A GOOGLE BLOG( BLOGSPOT.COM)
1:it is free and easy to use.
2: coding is not required.
3: It's acceptable by Google AdSense in case of monetization.
4: its theme is mobile-friendly
Disadvantage: everything that has an advantage has a disadvantage moving from a free domain. Blogspot.com to an owned domain like .com, .net, .edu, buzz, etc is a bit expensive.
2: WordPress. com: I recommend WordPress for those who want to
own their domain name, like your domain .com, not yourdomain.wordpress.com because it is cheaper
than blogger
HOW TO CREATE A WORDPRESS ACCOUNT.
Step 1: you must have a functional e-mail as well.
Step 2: visit WordPress.com click to sign up or create a new account then fill in all your biodata i.e, your full name, address, email, phone
number, DOB, a company name that's your blog name, WordPress address, etc
Step 3: Before opening a WordPress account you must have a particular niche because your niche determines how your blog will be ranked globally quality and
original content determine how Google ranks your site but
without choosing a particular niche you cannot create good
and quality content.
Note: this niche I talked about is not anywhere written in WordPress or Blogger it is written in your
Brain your niche is what your brain can produce.
Step 4: you have to choose the WordPress template you
want depending on your niche then enter your password and click
save.
Advantages of WordPress
1: nice and attractive template
2: easy to convert from free to own domain.
3: template is usually responsive
4:conversion to own domain is cheap.
Disadvantage: the major disadvantage of WordPress for beginners is the inability to monetize it through Google
AdSense and some other CPP, PCP advertising company .it only accept affiliate
(CPA) like Amazon, Jumia, Konga, Jiji, etc.
