What is the blog?

A blog, a term derived from "weblog," is a collection of thoughts or analyses on one or more topics from the person running the blog.

Dozens of blogs are now launched every minute. Of course, this means that it is now a crowded market, making it even more critical that a blog is enough to stand out from the crowd.

The blogging revolution.

In the past, well, not that long ago, but when blogs first appeared on the Internet in the 1990s, they were often just a collection of people's thoughts, often about the mundane events of their lives. It was often compulsive reading, typical of our big brother culture, no matter how boring it was.

However, blogging has become more commercial with topics with better retail prices. People realize that blogs, especially the popular ones, can make a lot of money for their owners through advertising revenue.

A blog potential.

Theoretically, the more popular a blog is, the more valuable it is to advertisers because they have more users and, therefore, the better the opportunity to present their products and services to the visitors of that blog. More traffic means more clicks per pay-per-click (PPC) ad.

Popular blogs share specific features, no matter what topics they cover.
