What is a Blog?
You might have heard the word "blog" infinitely many times and you must be familiar with it but it is necessary to keep nuts and bolts tight in order to make structure rigid and lay a strong foundation of the concept.
A Blog is an amazing place to share your ideas, pen down spectacular stories or any of your hobby that you want to express to the world. A Blog is a frequently updated journal or a digital diary for scribbling down your passion in your own personalized way. Blog word is coined from "Weblog" and both of them are used interchangeably.


Okay, But why should you create a blog?😕 

  1. Blogging really seems cool in its own unique ways. It spreads your ideology and information. If you want to become an influencer, an industry leader or similar kind then you are thinking the right way.
  2. Blogging provides the best platform for those who want to express themselves. You will not only learn more but also think better than before.
  3. Pure Passion: Your intention is to show your work, share your stories, grow a community. 
  4. The best reason: You can make money💰 doing it!
Creating your blog from scratch will take a while. Consider getting yourself a coffee or tea and a notepad.

Step 1: Game Plan

Choose what are you going to blog about. Blog about something you enjoy and you have plenty of room to discuss it. Choose relevant topics. A Blog requires a lot of content to keep going and be coherent. Choosing a niche would be the best step at this point. If you are expert in any niche you feel then I bet choosing it.

Step 2: Choose a Platform

If you wanna cook, you need a kitchen similarly if you want to blog, you need a blogging platform. Choose a right platform from a wide range of blogging platforms:

  1. Wordpress
  2. Blogger
  3. Wix
  4. Squarespace
  5. Weebly

Step 3:  Setup your Blog

After selecting an appropriate platform for blogging, you need to choose its name, domain name, description, etc details to make sure everything is filled up. This will leave no chance for visitors to feel you are a newbie.😏

Step 4: Blog Posts 

Avoid hurrying while posting. We insist to make an action plan for your blog posts. Write compelling content to gain user attention which ultimately leads to regular visitors. Don't compromise on quality over quantity. Be precise and up to the mark. Don't go off the track to prevent user retention. At last, content is the king of the blog.👑

Alright. Up till here, you are having your amazing blog running ready to soar high. The Second Post of this series will be shortly released by Cognitive. Brace Yourselves!
