What's a Blog?

Definition:
According to Marketing Terms.com, a Blog is a frequent, chronological publication of personal thoughts and Web links.

Information:
A blog is often a mixture of what is happening in a person's life and what is happening on the Web, a kind of hybrid diary/guide site, although there are as many unique types of blogs as there are people.

People maintained blogs long before the term was coined, but the trend gained momentum with the introduction of automated published systems, most notably Blogger at blogger.com. Thousands of people use services such as Blogger to simplify and accelerate the publishing process.

Blogs are alternatively called web logs or weblogs. However, "blog" seems less likely to cause confusion, as "web log" can also mean a server's log files.

Since the introduction of blogs, they have quickly been adopted as a great vehicle for real estate agents to increase market presence and keep in contact with the community that they serve. Many marketing companies are now telling real estate agents that if they have a website, they must have a blog to both increase lead collection as well as increase search engine visibility.
