If you are anything like me, who wants to get into the online space without spending too much effort or money, then blogging is the right platform for you. A web log or simply a blog is the opportunity available to the average person to say what he wants to say, make himself heard and build his own following if what one says is valuable.
A blog is also an opportunity to make money if you just know the simple techniques that are illustrated in the blog program which you use. For example this is a blog on a blogger platform. You have the opportunity to monetize it through adsense for which you will be guided if you chose to do so.
