Blogging - Add Content, Images, Videos and More

Create your own blog and start adding content to it.  Does it seem like blogging is hard to do?  Blogging is not hard at all.  You can write content for your blog on your own time and pleasure. 

Think about your online audience and what they want to hear about.  You have products and services to offer, but you might not want to do a hard sell immediately. 

A blog is a great way to share information.  You can post all kinds of info on a blog.  You don't have to just do a lot of writing on your blog.

Blogs are a great location to post photos and other types of information.  Some people are more visual and you don't want to ignore them.  Long blog posts might be perfect for turning into a video. 

You don't have to appear on camera for your videos. You can do screen capture or use photos to create a slideshow video.  Making visuals for your blog just gives it more appeal.

When you create new content for your blog, you might start getting some web traffic as a result. You don't want to ignore your web visitors.  How would you feel if you tried to talk to someone, but they just looked in your face and ignored you?  You want to respond to your blog readers.

How can you stay updated with your blog readers?  You can respond through the comments section.  You might come up with some really good blogging content and people start to respond.  They might tell you through the comments section just how good your new content is.  This is an opportunity to bring the conversation forward.  

Not all blog comments are real.  Sometimes you will find that some comments are being created just to try to get traffic to other blogs or sites.  This is called blog spam.  Nobody likes it, but you have to deal with it.  Most blog owners will just send those spam blog comments to the trash can.

Now you have some blog basics that you can use to get started.  Get your own blog started and start creating compelling information.
