Blogging is a way of sharing content that you want to update on a regular basis. Unlike normal websites, blogs allow you to add many types of content (videos, articles and images and so on) via posts to your site and show them on the front page of your blog and throughout different categories in your blog.

Blogging is sort of like having a message board that automatically rotates your articles.

Example of a blog post: If wrote an article titled “Most Fashionable Celebrity Dogs” that was 300 words in length and I added a video, and images i would have a post. When published that post will show up in the front of my blog. Before publishing the post to my blog I would then add tags like dogs or dog fashion. I would also add a category because the articles about “Celebrity Dogs” I would place this article in the celebrities category.

By adding the post to a category you separate your content into related groups so any other post you wrote about celebrities will show up when you click a link in the category section.

Aside from posting you can also add pages to a Web Blog. Actually with Wordpress you can make a totally normal static website. More Info Here>> How to Build a Static Wordpress Website. Wordpress is the ULTIMATE blogging platform, if you are considering blogging make sure your web host has Fantastico so you can install your blog with 1 click of your button and for free on your domain.

Like I said above blogging is just updated content, just like news sites. TMZ.com, PerezHilton.com, JohnChow.com and the list of Bloggers goes on.
