Starting your blog | Access 2 Knowledge

Blog techniques are changing fast, many people start to put photos and pictures on their blogs. This caused a very interesting phenomenon. The first pictures of the London bombings where spread by blogs so fast, that they did beat the big television networks and news agencies. People actually submitted their pictures made from the scene with their mobile phones on their blogs. Other blogs picked up the news with the photo material in minutes and spread them around with lighting speed. I think this is the evidence that blog are really powerful things and earned their place on the internet. With the implementation of video on blogs their importance and popularity is even growing. This makes us consumers of news and multimedia much more independent from big commercial TV and news agencies. Those guys have other interests to consider then provide us with objective news, quality TV and radio programs.These advertisers and investors want everything to be a commercial success, rather then not so commercial quality content.

Starting your own blog, here are some tips.

These days you can’t make any money from having a blog. You are way too late to do that at this stage. Use web logs for their own purpose e.g. provide quality content. This is the only way to attract people to you web log. Post a video using Youtube or pictures using Flickr. Not only does this save on your server space, you can get more exposure and drive customers to your blog or website. You can also find some great web hosting companies that offer various tools to help you promote your blog.

Pick a quality blog hosting provider that can provide managed hosting on the internet where to host your blog. Be sure that they have the capability to upgrade to services like colocation so that your blog can grow. The bigger the blog community not always means this is the best choice, because the servers of these providers often can’t handle the hug amount of traffic and need to be shut down for maintenance very often.

Post pictures with your articles to enhance your blog. If you have a startup band or you want to be the new rising pop star on the block, place a link to your demo (make one in mp3 format), and place it on your blog. This is called pod casting. While traveling submit travel stories and photo’s to inform people at home or fellow travelers about your adventures. You can even stream video on you blog!
