rest of blogging 101 has to do with the technical

side of things. If you are setting up a blog, you will

need a platform, a web host, and a domain. A

blogging platform is a computer software program

that allows you to write posts and to update your

blog. Your platform is also what you use to design

the look of your blog, from color scheme to font

size. The web host is sort of like the virtual file

cabinet where your blog is stored. Your computer

communicates with the host when you upload or

edit a post. The domain is the online address of

your blog, and usually ends in ‘dot com'. Now that

you know what a blog is, what a platform is, and

what domains and hosts are, congratulate yourself!

You have passed blogging 101.
