Blog Site Types

Lesson Objectives  – Identify types of blog sites and identify what type of site you will create and why (you will leave a comment at the end of this blog post)

For your blog, you can help to identify your blog’s voice by choosing the blog type.  Blogs can be used to provide news, fashion, marketing news, etc.  You may not want to limit yourself to just one type of blog. Your blog may fit into two types.  Of course your blog should focus, so be careful and choose wisely before selecting more than two types.  The subject matter, topic, or tone will not determine or limit your type of blog. Those are limited only by your imagination and talent.
