Why do people blog?

Some people write a blog as a hobby or to pass time and share experiences with others. They love the freedom of expressing themselves and reflecting over things through writting blogs. Sharing the voice within them, the opinions and thoughts about something are heard by the readers, friends or even strangers. Blogger loves the fun of connecting to their readers and the satisfaction they get from gaining new friends and hearing their readers comments about his or her posted topic (sometimes called blog entry or blog post). Some people write about their daily experiences where readers get to know them and learn from their experiences. It serves as their online diary or online journal. Other people uses blog as a way to kill boredom, some uses blog to socialize and stay in touch with their friends and relatives, connect even to those who are living across the countries. Most bloggers uses blog as a way to practice their writing ability. Blogs can serve as effective tools in businesses too. Some use blog to hold a conversation with customers, employers and public in general.

Unknown to some bloggers, there are ways to monetize a blog to earn extra income. Some bloggers are now enjoying extra income from their weblogs. It's great having fun blogging and earning at the same time. How? That will be one of the next topics I will post here. In the mean time, if you are interested to start blogging, relax and start thinking as to what topic or subject you are more interested with or the subject you want to share to your soon readers. You can either make a journal-style blog, a photoblog, a subject based blog, or a link compilation blog. It's all up to you. Also, start thinking of a nice name for your blog. What would it be? Something nice and something that would reflect what your blog is all about. Unleash your creativity and let the good writer within yourself shine. Have a great time!
