What is blog ?

Blog means, A frequent, chronological publication of personal views and Web links.

A blog is often a mixture of what is happening in a person's life and what is happening on the Web, a kind of hybrid diary/guide site, although there are as many unique types of blogs as there are people.

People maintained blogs long before the term was coined, but the trend gained momentum with the introduction of automated published systems, most notably Blogger at blogger.com. Thousands of people use services such as Blogger to simplify and accelerate the publishing process.

Blogs are alternatively called web logs or weblogs . However, "blog" seems less likely to cause confusion, as "web log" can also mean a server's log files.

What is Blog Marketing?

More and more companies are contemplating whether they should start a business blog, it seems appropriate to shed more light on marketing considerations for blogs. While business blog marketing effectiveness can be improved in many ways, here are three fundamental considerations: content, frequency and distribution.

Blog Content - Know your audience. Your blog posts must be interesting and useful to your readers. Develop your unique voice and don't be afraid to post things others will not agree to.

Posting Frequency of Blog are very important as there is a direct correlation to blog popularity and frequency of posts. Post 8-9 times per week at a minimum. Consumers of information are beginning to realize only a fraction of sites are updated in search engines every day, but that blog and RSS search engines like BLOGWISE , Blog Search Engine , Blog Universe , BlogDump , BlogPulse , BlogStreet , BlogTree.com , Blogarama , Blogdex , Blogdigger , Blogging Primer by Business Week , Blogit , Blogroots , Bloogz , Daypop , Eatonweb Portal , Feedster , Globe of Blogs , PubSub , Syndic8.com, Technorati , blogosphere.us , eurekster search , Google Blog Search , Yahoo Blogs are update hourly.

Search Engine Marketing (SEO) of your blog is important. A common issue from people new to blogs and RSS feeds is where to find them. Marketing a blog brings additional advantages over blog publishers. A blog and associated RSS/XML/Atom feed can be promoted within the blogoshpere as well as through traditional directories, search engines and web site linking. The opportunity for blog exposure is much greater than a regular web site alone.

Make it easy for news feed subscribers to find your blog through both web site search engines (Google, Yahoo, MSN) and RSS search engines (Google Blog Search, Bloglines, Feedster, Technorati).

Lately, I've been focusing on the effect blogs have on business in terms of ROI (affecting the bottom-line), particularly those used for marketing purposes. To date, I've found no studies that quantify such data, just some occasional mentions like that of the Audi blog success , but that was more blogvertising. I'm interested in companies that actually use blogs as marcom tools.
