Blogs can be used for this communication purpose.A customer can subscribed to RSS feeds and receive automatic updates to his or her RSS reader

  What should you post on your Blog 

This is the 1st question comes in the mind of a person thinking to start a blog.If you are new to this medium and don't know what to post on your blog then I suggest you to visit some blogs run by other bloggers and you will get idea about posting.You can get the idea about a topic from other blog's content but do not copy the content itself.There are many many topics and subjects about which you can write on your blog.Generally choose the subject of your interest so you have some knowledge and considerable interest and that will make your writing easy.

 The blog related to media are the most popular ones and perheps remain the most popular ones in future.Whenever some event occurs the search engines are flooded with searches regarding that perticular event because people are curious to know what hppend and why happened.If you run a media related blog  and has good quality content then your blog will be picked up quickly by search engines but downside of running this type of blog is you have to be in time to post important events regularly and keep a hawk's eye on media news.There is a positive side of this blog is you will find content and topics from news paper and television channels.Most media companies and news papers runtheir on blog because the demand for news paper is decrased and to reach masses net is the easy and affordable solution.Junalists and reporters run his or her personal blog because it makes them able to communicate with readers

 Another good subjects to start a blog are political issues, health issues and community issues which are very important to people. people are became sensetive about their health so most people want to know about general health issues and other thing that can affect their health.Some people are very interested in politics and they have their own opinion about every situation.They want a platform to talked about their opinions and a blog related to political issue is the best place as they can post their views and opinions about current topics.Again as a political blogger you have to remain updated about the politics.Ther are so many community issues and so ther are lots of to start a blog related to perticular topics.Community issues can be related to jobs, businesses or regulations and laws.
 
In my opinion you should start a blog about something you really like and enjoy.Naturally you have knowledge about the topics because you liked them .Most important thing is you liking and enjoying what you write and this motivate you to carry on your writing.Some people start blogging about something they do not like at all and they find it hard to continue blogging and in the end gave up.Why they have started a blog about a subject which they themselves don't like?Because they believe a blog should be on a popular topic to make it successful but believe me it is a wron belief.More you like the subject, more you understand it and more you can write about the subject.

Start Blogging  Why ?

Why anyone start blogging?Because blogging allows one to express themselves in a manner they find fit. The people interested in writing about day to day life can start a personal blog and can write about what is going on their life.There are thousand of personal blogs where blogger s write about their personal life.It is like a persobal diary or journal whcih a blogger share it with his or her.Morever you can express your opinion about anything and share that with your readers and most important aspect of blogging is blog readers can post their on comment and participate and interact with the content instead of just plain reading which keep them interested.Blogggin is the simplest and easiest way to publish your work and morever it is free and inter active so the reader can participate.You do not require any html or codeing knowledge to start a blog like a website requires.Blogging is time saver unlike a website you can write your post an publish it on your blog entire process takes only 5 minutes.Blogger and WordPress like free services have made it possible for anyone.

 I f you are operating a business or selling products,your blog can be used to bring more revenue and sales with different ways.You can write revies about your products and your readers can comment about their own views and by posting reply to comment you can make them more educated about your products.Your sales letter has a limitation of formate and limitation of room but on your blog you can provid detaied information about your products.More ever you receive feed back from your customers through comment so you can modified or add new features to your product and make them more useful for them.Search engines like fresh content and blog is the medium where new content added regularly so  blogs have a higher chance of ranking in search engines than a static website.
