What is the difference between a blog and website?
A blog is simply a type of website. Blogs use blog software in order to make designing, writing, and publishing your content as simple and professional as possible.
Blogs can be customized to do just about anything, but most blogs tend to offer fresh content on a weekly basis along with the ability for readers to leave comments. These are not requirements however, as many large established sites (Bestbuy.com, Xerox.com, Time.com, etc.) use the WordPress blog software to create things that look nothing like traditional blogs.
Can I write about a variety of topics on my blog, or do I need to stick to just one?
Most bloggers write about a variety of subjects, so there is no need to stick to just one. However, you will probably want to organize your posts into categories so that visitors can easily find the posts that they want to read.
What is web hosting?
Web hosting is a service that stores and delivers the files for your blog from a web server. When people visit your domain name the web hosting company delivers your blog files from their web server to the visitor. Every single website needs to have web hosting in order to function, and a high-quality web host is very important if you want your blog to function correctly. In my tutorial I show you how to find high-quality web hosting at a very affordable price.
Why can’t I find my blog when I search for it?
Google and Bing (and other search engines) are relatively slow in adding new blogs and websites to their search results. There are a couple of things you can do to speed up this process:
- Network with other blogs. (Recommended)
- Submit your blog to search engines. (Optional)
You can manually submit your site to search engines for free. This is not necessary to have your site appear in search engine results, but it can speed up the process. This is not something I typically do, but if you want to do it I recommend just submitting to Google and Bing. This will get your blog listed in Google, Bing, and Yahoo, which are the most popular search engines.
