Blogging 101 is mostly about the blogging vocabulary. To
understand blogs, you need to know the terms blog, platform,
domain, and web host.
Once you have mastered these key elements of blogging, you
can enter any conversation about blogging with confidence.
After you know what exactly a blog is, you will be on your way
to passing the final exam of blogging 101.
Blog is short for weblog, which simply means a series of
online posts presented in reverse chronological order. That's
all! Most blogs are text, but there are also photo blogs and
video blogs. The rest of blogging 101 has to do with the
technical side of things. If you are setting up a blog, you
will need a platform, a web host, and a domain. A blogging
platform is a computer software program that allows you to
write posts and to update your blog. Your platform is also what
you use to design the look of your blog, from color scheme to
font size. The web host is sort of like the virtual file
cabinet where your blog is stored. Your computer communicates
with the host when you upload or edit a post. The domain is the
online address of your blog, and usually ends in 'dot com'. Now
that you know what a blog is, what a platform is, and what
domains and hosts are, congratulate yourself! You have passed
blogging 101.
