A blog (a contraction of the term "web log") is a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.

Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, Web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual, although some focus on art (Art blog), photographs (photoblog), videos (Video blogging), music (MP3 blog), and audio (podcasting). Microblogging is another type of blogging, featuring very short posts.

As of December 2007, blog search engine Technorati was tracking more than 112,000,000 blogs.

How do you get traffic to your blog?
Q. Do you blog? Do you blog to advertise items you are selling? I am rather new to the blogging world. I mainly blog to advertise products that I am selling and websites that I am selling on. How do I get traffic to my blog? Do I basically just need to add content? Does my blog get picked up in the search? Any advice on blogging is very much needed. Hello, yes I mention it on my twitter account and also my other web-sites.

A. You are right that you need to write content, but that is not enough. You also need to do some blog promotion to get some initial visitors. If I were you I would sign up for a twitter account and start using it to promote all new posts. Commenting on other blogs is also a great way to get visitors, because blog comments normally have a back link to your site.

How can I subscribe to a blog of someone from Friendster without having to add them as a friend?
Q. I want to be able to read this person's Friendster blog but she's not a friend of mine and I don't really want to bother adding her. Her profile is on private so I don't know how I would be able to access and read her blog. Ideas, anyone?

How can I start a blog and get paid for it?
Q. Does anyone know the criteria for starting a blog? I have a great idea and a friend insists that I can get paid. I am a divorced mother of 4 and struggling to make ends meet. I am also an idiot when it comes to the internet so I apologize if this is such a well known thing, but I love to write, I have a great idea, and if I can get paid for it, it would be awesome! Thanks for all the suggestions!

A. One of the easiest, most popular and profitable ways to generate an additional income stream from your blog/s is to do some paid posting through paid blogging networks. Connecting paying advertisers with bloggers-for-hire, paid blogging networks simply act as a bridge or middle-man. Bloggers are basically paid to write and post their opinions and reviews of advertiser websites, products and/or services. But, because each paid blogging network is different - rules, guidelines and requirements vary. Being professional and consistent are key in order to build a good reputation for yourself. Making money through paid blogging and posting can earn you a realistic $100 to $500 or more per month with each blog. Some good sites that you might… [cont.]
