Blogging seems to be where it’s at these days, anyone can try it, it’s fun and it’s completely free to do. All you need is an angle to go for, a target audience and a little bit of dedication. Anything can be covered, from food to photos (or even photos of food!), personal stories and political comment. Sites such as blogger and tumblr are easy to join and offer up professional looking pages for you to adapt and make your own. All sites are easy to find your way around and as soon as it’s all set up you are free to start blogging straight away .As for advertising your new venture, word of mouth is always pretty good. Another idea is also pasting links to your new articles on social networking sites to get you more views. Copy and paste links into twitter and you’ll even be given a free url shortener- meaning you lose less of your precious 140 characters. Couldn’t be easier!
