Most blog software has built-in templates and features that allow the user to simply type in the information they want to share. Some blogging software allows users to post pictures, video and audio files on their blogs.

Unlike websites, which are made up of numerous individual pages; blogs are made up of only one template. This makes it easy for blog owners to create new pages, because the template has a fixed setting that already includes things like the title, category, and a place to post information.

Basically a blog contains these features:

Title - allows users to create a title for each blog post they create.
Body - the area where users post their content.
Trackback - allows other blog owners to link back to the user's blog.
Permanent Link - this is the URL or hyperlink created for each blog post.
Comments - allows others to post comments to the user's blog. Oftentimes this feature can be turned on or off to suit the blogger's needs.

Blogs can be used to share information with family and friends, or to market products and services. Most blogs are focused on one specific, or niche topic.

If you decide to use a blog to market your business, make certain you remain professional at all times. Check your spelling and grammar. Proof it before you post it. If you find a mistake, fix it. What you present on your blog is just as important as what you present on your web site.

Last, but not least, be aware that it's likely you will receive inappropriate comments or spam from your blog and/or web site. The best advice I can give you is to simply hit the delete key.
