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 of 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 I start a blog under a pen-name and maintain my anonymity. How do you then get regular readers?
Q. I want to blog about issues I don't want associating with my 'work' self. How do I choose a blog host that has a good anonymity record, in other words, I don't want it to be easy for people to match up my IP address or access my personal details. Also, having set the blog up, how do you encourage high volume visitors? I've only used LJ before and I want to try something a bit different, but anonymity is the biggest issue for me. Would welcome suggestions of good free blog hosts.

A. Use www.blogger.com. You write/blog under a user name, not your real name. Creating a profile with photo and all that is optional. You have to advertise your site if you want people to go to it regularly. You can advertise it on free things MySpace, or related sites that would contain your link (that might not be free).

How to create a blog template with photoshop?
Q. I'd like to know how to create my own blog template with photoshop and how to upload it? I don't really want to download one, I'd like to create my own. So is there a particular size that I need. Also, do I need to slice and optimize it?

A. Just create a template, then slice it with Image Ready. You need to optimize it using the optimize for web feature. If not, your visitor will have to wait longer just to get all the images load. The size depends on what blogging platform you are using. Better get the css code for that blog template and harvest all the information there. All you need is the height and the width of every images.

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.]
