Course Description
Blogs are very popular on the Web. They are being used to promote any kind of business, sporting event, musical activity, or provide information to readers, such as independent reviews of products and services, and lots more.
In many cases, Blogs are earning their authors a significant income. A Blog is a Web Log, where the author writes about a specific topic, and Internet users can get information they require and comment on the topic if they want to.
This course demonstrates with graphical examples:
How to Choose a platform to create your Blog on,
How to Choose a Niche or a few different Niches for the Blog,
How to use RSS Feeds and Aggregators to quickly and automatically find content on Favorite topics, from all over the Web,
How to automatically format the Blog and Insert Images, and
How to optimise the Blog on the Search Engines, so you can promote whatever you want to Internet Searchers, and therefore earn income as a Blogger (the author of the Blog).
