There is a new way to update friends and family on what is happening to your life. Using the internet, you can create a personal journal and share with people. This is called a web blog or blogging.

A blog is similar to a journal or diary where you can post your activities or thoughts on a regular basis.  Just like a diary this is solely maintained by you but the difference is that you can give access or allow people to read your blog or post comments on what you have written.

There are different types of blogs depending on the subject:

The most common type is a personal blog. Blogspot, WordPress and other blog sites make available spaces for personal blogs. Personal blogs are online diaries or journals. You can post anything on your blog including images and videos. People also make cultural blogs which cover topics about the arts, music, painting and culture in general. Most of these blogs are made for educational purposes. Niche blogs are also called topic blogs. These blogs focus on a specific subject like acne remedies, diet methods, etc. This type is usually created in support of a website which sells the product or service. Business related topics are covered by business blogs. This type of blog is used by people to update others about business and its environment. Good examples are the blogs about the stock market. Science blogs are made by those who want to inform others about a particular scientific field. Usually the blog is restricted since some information is sensitive or confidential. Blogs written by two or more people are called collaborative blogs. This type of blog is maintained by clubs or interest groups. Students have also found a use for blogging. This type of blog is similar to a cultural blog though the subject maybe about a particular course. When a discussion about certain topics is made though a blog this is called a forum blog. Using a blog for advertising purposes is called spam blog or splogs. This kind of blog advertises a product or service blatantly.

Anyone can make a blog especially that it is FREE. Let us discuss how to start a blog.

Choose a blog site service for which your blog will be published. You will then be asked to give your blog a title.

Amazon is a trusted site where your website or blog visitors can immediately purchase the products you advertise, and when they do, you can earn up to 15% in referral fees. You can create a slideshow widget from the images of products in the Amazon catalog. Pick your favorite books, movies, and CD’s and they will be displayed in slideshow fashion. Here’s how you create your Amazon online store and make money advertising Amazon’s vast array of products.

Instructions

1. Go to Amazon.com and sign up for their Affiliate Program. Once you are approved login and click on the “Widgets” link and start building your Amazon Widgets. You can easily create almost any type of widget, such as, mp3, video, movies, aStore (advertising products that you have in your online store), and for this article, a Slideshow widget.

Just copy and paste the specifications of your
