My Blogging Experience

At first, blogging posed a problem for me. I have never blogged before in my life. I had no idea how to set-up my blogging space, but I took it one step at a time. All it took was for me to overcome my fear of something new and get started, and in a matter of minutes I had my very own blogging space. One of the most difficult things that I had to do was make link to the wiki with my page. My biggest problem was that instead of saying Judith’s Blog, my link actually had the URL on the wiki looking something like this http://...... I did not want to leave it with the URL; therefore I used Google to find a solution to my problem. I found an easy step by step guide of how to insert link on to a blog. I was thrilled when I figured out how to make a link! Now it seems fairly simple to me. The part that I enjoyed the most was customizing my blog. I really like the themes that are provided, but what I like the most is that even though templates are provided each blogging space can look unique. The


I found a few blogs that I really enjoyed. Out of all the blogs that I found my favorite is Baby Topics - Guide for New Parents. This blog has been up and running since 2006. This blog informs parents about everything they need to know about babies. Topics range from how to sponge bath a newborn to top ten foods to give a baby then he or she first starts eating. This blog even provides a guide to how to buy the right stroller for a baby. This blog is very insightful and informative—especially to new parents. Baby names are also provided for anyone who needs help choosing a name, making the blogging space a bit more personal. This blog also provides other great baby sites such as Johnson & Johnson, Huggies, and Babys R Us.


The thing that makes a quality blog is being able to relate to your audience. This means that adaptation might have to be an option. I think that adding pictures also makes the blog space more friendly and more welcoming. It is also very important to take the audience into consideration, not only by reading and answering their comment; but by offering them more of what they want to see. This can sometimes mean try something new from time to time, but you never know if you are going to like it unless you try.
