What is a Blog?
Before you can set out on the journey of starting a blog, let me first tell you what a blog is, right?
A blog is an online platform, where you share stuff. Mostly text articles, but well videos and pictures go along fine too. The goal with the blog is, to drive traffic to it. And then finally, to convert the traffic.
Convert as in, to make the traffic buy a product directly (affiliate marketing), or to get it to click on the ads (Adsense/Chitika, etc., it).
So in a nutshell, a blog is a platform that works as your online identity/shop/marketplace, now what you do with that platform is your choice.
