Everyone has something to say. Whether it's talking about their little league team, the local hiking trails, or promoting their business, we all have a voice. Computers and the internet have opened up many doorways, and now we have many viable and reasonable avenues to be seen and heard.
One of the fastest growing forms of presence on the internet is through blogging. Blogs have visual themes, and can focus on a wide variety of concepts such as updates for your group, journals or diaries, or tips related to the products or services being promoted.
One of the best ways to try the blogging concept on for size is to sign up for a free blogging site. There are many blogging communities available at no cost. The flip side is that there are limits on the themes available, as well as the extra add on components at these free blogging sites.
One of the features that many include on their blogs nowadays is Google Adsense ads. Most free blogging sites do not allow you to place advertisements like these pay per click ads. One exception is Blogger, which is actually owned by Google. It is reasonable to place ads on your blog if you have adequate useful content. The ads that are displayed will be related to your content.
Another concept of online communication is pods. Pods are like mini blogs. Think of a blog as a collection, while a pod is more of a single-serving. Pods offer a few added features such as photos and links, but not as many features as blogging sites.
Another option for making your mark in the online world is through social networking. These online communities offer the ability to link to your friends and family who also have pages in the network. Two of the most commonly known social networking sites is MySpace and FaceBook.
There are other options for making your presence known in the online world, but blogging, pods, and social networking have become the standards for online presence and communication. It's simple to set up, and gives you a great way to share stories and photos with your family, group or community. - 15275
