The Internet by Owen Jones

Ways to become part of the online community!

Ideas about the Internet for those who want to get started.

The internet

I hope that you will find the information helpful, useful and profitable.

The ideas in this ebook on various aspects of the Internet including using it to your advantage is organised into 17 chapters of about 500-600 words each.

I hope that it will interest those who are hoping to make money on line, and those who want to attract more traffic to an offline business by using the often ‘free’ resources that the Internet has to offer. It will also be useful to bloggers who just want to make friends all over the world and chat with them. Luckily, many aspects of the Internet are still free, especially if you don’t allow yourself to be manipulated by the self-proclaimed Internet gurus, who are waiting to pounce on unsuspecting newbies.

As an added bonus, I am granting you permission to use the content on your own website or in your own blogs and newsletter, although it is better if you rewrite them in your own words first.

Blogging as an Art Form

If writing is an art form, then blogging can be seen as an art form too. Blogging is no less an art form than ordinary writing only because it is more popularist and does not require paper. Bloggers write on all sorts of things, in fact they compose pieces on every topic under the sun. People write about their daily lives, their jobs, their hobbies and their problems.

Blogging began life in the mid Nineties for webmasters to maintain a record of their involvement with their computers, which is where the term comes from: 'web log'. Web log became weblogs and then it was contracted to blog. Web logs soon became a well-liked manner of recording and publishing other daily activities on line, much like a diary.

Blogs can get posted to a URL like a website is, or they can be posted to a free bloggers' web site. There are lots of these free blogs, but one of the most famous ones is Google's 'Blogger'.

Despite being free of charge, Blogger offers a fully adaptable blog which can hold adverts like Google Ads and Amazon, so that the blogger can offer related items for sale and make a little money at the same time.

If personal blogs are used to talk about daily life, business blogs can be used as rolling adverts for a company's products. The manager of the firm's blog can compose pieces on innovations, new products, jobs vacant and extraordinary offers. The company's blog can be used as a private press release machine which can reach a global audience.

If you want to create a blog for personal or company use, you will need to know something about blogging, so here are a couple of pointers.
