Tag: It's a Post not a Blog

Do you know the answer to this question. What is the difference between using the term “Blog” and the using the term “Post”?

If you are an “Author” of a “Blog” than you are a “Blogger”. As an “Author” you “Publish” content one “Post” at a time to your “Blog”.

When you announce that you have written new content you should say something like this:

• “I have a new Post out”
• “Just Published a New Post“
• “Check out my Latest Post“
• “My latest Blog Entry is a Masterpiece, Go Now”
• “Just finished the worst Blog Post ever, I should delete it.”

Never do the following:

• “New Blog up, Go Now”
• “Just finished a new Blog check it out.”
• “My latest Blog is a master piece, You’ll love it.”
• “Just wrote the best Blog ever in my entire life, better than you ever.”
• “I Blogged a Blog and Blogged it to my Blog, You should Blog it!” Doe!!!

What am I getting at?

Don’t say stupid things like “I just finished a new Blog“, unless you actually just started a new Blog at Blogspot.com or WordPress.com or TypePad.com…. Do you see my point! The word Blog is talking about a specific Blog associated with a unique URL.
