What Are The Features of a Blog

The word blog was extracted from web log. A blog is basically an online digital journal wherein you can write down your thoughts, ideas, opinions and practically anything that you want people to read. Blogs come in different styles, formats, and settings, depending on the preference of the user. Many blogging websites, offer built in features such as hyperlink, straight texts, pictures etc. Some blogging web sites, even allow you to put video and mp3's on your blogs.

Instead of writing texts, some bloggers choose to make their blogs more audio friendly, by using spoken word entries. This is called audio blogging.

How Quality And Unique Is Your Blog Content?

I remember the first time I submitted an article to Ezine directory; the return message said that my article was a duplicate content. Actually, I used a PLR article because I thought it would make the task easy. Rather, it worsened the situation. I advise that you write what you know and can defend in an interview. Don’t begin to look for a short cut, as there’s no short cut to blogging success..

My friend asked if I still blogged and I gave a positive response. He began to tell me how long blogging can take somebody before earning - six months or one year. All I know is that I do what I like. I write my articles every day because I enjoy doing it, looking for how to improve my business for more exposure. Blogging is all about writing and posting to your blog for readers to enjoy. But as you write, make your work unique and high in quality. If you do this for a long time you’ll see a good result.

Having high quality and unique content on your blog site requires thorough research and hard work to achieve. You must keep writing and improving your skills every day until you see result. Not after one month, you begin to think of quitting. Remember what they say that it’s only the quitters who fail.

For you to write good and high quality content, you can use keywords or key phrases of your niche. You can visit forums and chat rooms to get ideas for high quality and unique content. You can interview an expert and use the excerpts as your content. Please do not fail to comment on this article. Thank you.
