Introduction to blogging for MLM success About 4 years ago, I decided to bring my network marketing business online. I was no newbie to internet marketing then, but when it comes to blogging, RSS, and podcasting, it was a totally new set of technology that I’ve got to learn.

If you are new to online marketing or trying to take your network marketing business online, I am sure that you will be caught this vicious cycle. So for a start to take your network marketing business online, there are some basic blogging terms and jargons you have to know.

Blogging Terms & Jargon

1. Blogoshere

All blogs, or the blogging community. Think of it as “the blogging world”

2. Comment Spam

Comment Spam are like email spam. Robot “spam bots” flood a blog with advertising in the form of bogus comments. A serious problem that requires bloggers and blog platforms to have tools to exclude some users or ban some addresses in comments.

3. Moblog

Contraction of “mobile blog”. A blog that can be updated remotely from anywhere, such as by phone or a personal digital assistant.

4. Content Syndication

How a site’s author or administrator makes all or part of its content available for posting on another website.

5. Photoblog

A blog mostly containing photos, posted constantly and chronologically.

6. Podcasting

Contraction of “iPod” and “broadcasting”. Posting audio and video material on a blog and its RSS feed, fro digital players.

7. RSS

RSS means Real Simple Syndication. It is a way of handling the latest posted on a website, especially suited for blogs becuase it alerts users whenever their favorite blogs are updated. It can also “syndicate” content by allowing other websites (simply and automatically) to reproduce all or part of a site’s content. Spreading fast, especially on media websites.

8. RSS Aggregator

It is a software or online service allowing a blogger to read an RSS feed, especially the latest posts on his favorite blogs. Also called a reader or a feed reader. One of such example is Google Reader.

9. RSS Feed

The file containing a blog’s latest posts. It can be read by an RSS aggregator or reader and shows at once when a blog has been updated.

10. Wiki

A wiki is a website that can be easily and quickly updated by any visitor. The word has also come to mean the tools used to create a wiki e.g. wikipedia. Blogs and wikis have some similiarities but are quite different too.

11. Videoblog

Very obviously, it is a blog that comprises mainly of videos. This is especially popular these days with the increase of video sharing sites emerging on the internet.
