Useful to know

1. BlogDay was created with the belief that bloggers should have one
day dedicated to getting to know other bloggers from other countries
and areas of interest. The designated date is August 31, because
when written 3108, it resembles the word "Blog". On that day,
bloggers recommend five new blogs to their visitors, so that readers
discover new, previously unknown blogs. Venus

2. A blog is basically a type of
website, like a forum or a social
bookmarking site.

3. Many blogs provide
commentary or news
on a particular
subject; others
function as more
personal online
diaries.
A typical blog combines text, images,
and links to other blogs, Web pages,
and other media related to its topic.
The ability of readers to leave
comments in an interactive format is
an important part of many blogs.
Most blogs are primarily textual,
although some focus on art (Art blog),
photographs (photoblog), videos (video
blogging), music (MP3 blog), and
audio (podcasting).

7. A business blog can help keep your website fresh and improve
your search engine rankings. Some business blogs take on a
life of their own, attracting more attention than the company
ever dreamed of attracting. Business blogs also broaden your
communication with customers by encouraging dialogue.
Perhaps the best benefit of all is that blogs are flexible enough to
support any business goal, so you can determine exactly how
your blog will operate and how it will support your
communication goals.
