Weblog - Setup

What's a Weblog or Blog

A blog is basically an online diary, this means that you can keep a daily journal or your business or your life and let people see it and read it - and comment too.

Why?

Blogs are a great way of contacting your customers on a different level - allow them you reply - give comments and let you know what you think. If you have a knowledge that others would find value - then write about it. Its like having your own column!

The best things its great for attracting attention from search engines and customers. A great example is this blog, Anne from Diets Make You Fat has been helping people lose weight with her blog - keeping people upbeat and not feeling quite so alone.

Its quick and its simple BUT it does take a commitment to write in it daily, weekly or month - or whatever length or period you determine.

To set up a blog your server must have PHP and MySQL, see hosting for more details.
