&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ghc.edu/faculty/portmann/blog_icon.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="263" kt="true" src="http://www.ghc.edu/faculty/portmann/blog_icon.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;You can blog anything you know. Anything. Yes, almost anything you know. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;If you are good in cooking, then start a blog with your favourite recipes. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;If you are a Mathematician, blog with some of your fascinated matrices &amp;amp; equations. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;If you are dressing in fashion, create a new trend in apparels.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;If you are well versed in Computers make a techie one.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;If at all Blogging is about posting articles you are well versed with. Remember, things you know may not be known by a person on the other side of the globe. Information given by you will be priceless for some people who are really looking for it. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Be it Cooking, Mathematics, Fashion, Computers, Automobile, Furniture, Fun, Games etc... Show all what you have got. The World is waiting for you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Choose your topic to Blog&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its a bit hard to filter one such topic to Blog. I will recommend you to do some paperwork before getting your hands on to a Computer. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First make a list of&amp;nbsp;whatever you are thorough with. You will be amazed to see how many topics you can write an article. Be clear to understand that a Blog is not like writing an Essay in your school. You have no bounds in a Blog. You can cover any topic to its length &amp;amp; breadth. If you want to recommend a medicine which you had a cure recently, write about it. It will be a winning Blog. That type of cure would be eagerly awaited by a person who is searching for it in the internet. He will find you and your Blog. Its that easy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Can it be specific ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes. Finalize it now. Start creating a sample Blog for testing purpose. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Choose from the following topics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Beauty Tips for Today's Women&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Fashion Wear to rock on&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Select the best furniture for your Living room&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Scientific Inventions of 21st Century&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Fitness - How to be lose 5 Kgs in a month?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Choosing the best Mobile Phone&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;I think the above topics will be more than enough to create a sample Blog. Based on the topic you have chosen, start writing in an informal way at first, the way you know that topic as it seems. Then format it to be viewed for others. Publish it and select some of your friends/relatives to view and comment. Take the feedbacks and stat building the real big Blog. You are done.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Do more with your Blog&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8755186787219071820-8854447074363424768?l=whattodowithblogs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

You can create your Blog with any of the following popular FREE Blog providers.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;There are lot many Websites offering a free Blog. You can choose any one suiting your convenience. Most users blog with Blogger or Wordpress.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Create a FREE Blogger account with Blogspot.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Log on to &lt;a href="http://www.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;. If you have a Google account, you can create a Blog directly using the same ID. If not, create a new user ID and register your new Blog.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After registering, you can see 'Dashboard' area where all of the Blogs you create line up. You can create a number of different Blogs using different names. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;li&gt;howtobevegetarian.blogspot.com&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;myname.blogspot.com&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;Like the above Blog addresses, 'n' number of Blogs can be created. Once you register a blog name, you can start posting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is a Post ?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you imagine a Blog as a Book,&amp;nbsp;a Post is like a page in a book. You can have infinite number of Posts in a Blog. You can publish your post in the eve of an important happening or during a political situation. A Blog can easily be described as a Hot Cake. The ease of a Blog is you don't require any special web skills. Just click the 'New Post' button and you can start posting your views by giving a new title for the post. You can even edit posts later with some updates or corrections. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: large;"&gt;Then What ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just click 'Publish Post'. You are done with basic method of creating your own Blog. You can notice that while posting your data will be autosaved frequently to prevent loss of data so as to continue your posting anywhere anytime. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.smbmarketingguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/blog.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" kt="true" src="http://www.smbmarketingguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/blog.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;A BLOG is a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;weB&lt;/span&gt; LOG. Got it? It is nothing but a log of web activities. The original idea was to maintain a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;continuous&lt;/span&gt; posting of activities to ensure consistent availability of data to the user. It was initiated by Jorn Barger (1997) and continued by Peter Merholz &amp;amp; then Evan Williams breaking the word 'weblog' into 'Blog' creating it a standard for posting blogs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There were many websites which promoted &amp;amp; popularized the term 'blog' just to name a few &lt;a href="http://www.usenet.com/"&gt;Usenet&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.genie.com/"&gt;Genie&lt;/a&gt;, Bix etc. After 1999, Blogs started flooding the Web. It was common to ask a person his Blog address rather than his visiting card. Blogs expressed personal &amp;amp; political views of a person. A personal Blog means more freedom. We can express our views how we see the World.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blogs have now ganed popularity to its extreme heights transforming the medium to a powerful tool of displaying mainstream content.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are going to discuss about :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;What exactly are Blogs meant for&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;How to create a Blog for FREE&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Maintaining a Blog with global standards&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Creating multiple Blogs&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Making money with Blogs&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Writing Blogs for a Third-Party&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What exactly to do with Blogs&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;OK people. Its time we get our hands dirty to create a nice &amp;amp; neat Blog. We will combine the best ever methods to make our Blog really work and reach to millions of fellowmen worldwide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
