What is a BLOG? Take the words ?Web? + ?log? = ?Blog?.

A blog is, in the case for this article, textual in content and is an online interactive journal used to build relationships between you and your potential/existing clients.

There are a couple of Blog Platforms to get familiar with; ?Hosted Blog Platforms? and ?Stand Alone Blog Platforms?.

A few of the Hosted Blog Platforms DPC and WFS use are: Blogger, MySpace, and WordPress. They are Free, easy to use, simple to implement, and are indexed to the Search Engines rather quickly.

The other type of Blog Platform is the Stand Alone Platform and they include: WordPress (which is currently #1 out of the top 50 Blog Spots), and ProBlogger. These are both Free to post to however, there is a domain name fee, and a hosting fee you are responsible for.

One of the advantages of the Stand Alone Blog Platform is you can post the blogs directly on your company's website. You can also be a little more creative in the design of the Blog as opposed to the standard templates found with the Hosted Blog Platforms.
