A blog is still a website with its own set of elements and features that create the kind of web design that we are most satisfied with. The last decade on the web has proved that blogging is a sustainable method of expressing oneself, as well as consuming content in a variety of different ways. Getting started with your own blog has also become somewhat of a leisurely experience, a good domain name and a reliable hosting company is all we really need to have our own WordPress based blogging enterprise up and running, or we may resort to alternatives like Blogger, Tumblr, amongst others.
