A Word About Blogs, A Blog About Words

Blogging is a funny word that emerged during a decade full of strange new internet creations. What used to be titled a weblog started as a place to spew log type information, or to form a public diary of sorts on the internet.

At first glance there is no blog that stands out and pronounces itself as a giant success. But, if you happen to visit an extremely successfuly blog with hundereds of thousands of others all focused on the same string of questions and comments, you don't need much creativity to see the potential.

For and example of some very successful blogs visit:
www.technorati.com/blogs/top100

The collective value of thought that flows in that kind of traffic becomes very valuable in terms of searchability and usefulness to web users. Even the advertising that connect users to products is positive al around tool in such a communal environment.

The connections that create great search results are naturally hardwired into the dna of every blogger that keeps the beast getting longer and more linkworthy.

More to come on blogs in general, but for the purposes of niche writing they should definitely be recognized as valuable places for very specific information. More to come!
