The word blog stands for a weblog. Simply put, a weblog is a series of online posts that appear in reverse chronological order. You'll find that mostly in the text, but you'll also find video blogs, photo blogs, or a combination of all of the above.
The rest of blogging 101 has to do with more technical elements. To build a weblog, you will need a domain, blogging platform, and web host.
2. What is the domain?
A Domain is the address of your website and is a name that ends. com, .net,. Info. ORG, etc.
3. What is a blogging platform?
A platform is a computer software program that gives you the ability to write and submit posts and update your blog continually. It's a platform that allows you to choose the color, layout, look, and feel of your blog.
4. What is a web host?
A web host is essentially a virtual cabinet file where information from your blog is stored and maintained. Every time you update your blog, your computer will communicate with the web host, and update the file.
