Reflection on Business Blogs

The competition on the Web for getting the attention of billions of users worldwide is tough. Designing Web sites, creating content and marketing Web sites has become a field of expertise requiring knowledge, understanding and statistics. Blogs and their caretakers and writers have found a way to compete with others Web sites successfully in the past few years. The written word is a content of highest regard and if uniquely created offering value to the user then a blog can succeed in the tough competitive environment.

Blogs set a trend for a new type of Web sites and this trend is still in full play all over the World Wide Web. Blogs set the trend for intensive hyper-linking and links published on Web sites in greater numbers than were previously seen on the early day Web sites. Blogs set the trend for enhanced communication and conversation contribution on a worldwide scale never seen before.

In the near future Html 5, the long awaited new standard for Html Web pages, will fast-forward come into full play or perhaps the Web will slowly adopt the new standard. Only time will tell. However, we are interested in keeping an eye on whether blogs will be setting the trend early for adopting Html 5 just as they did for the aforementioned concepts.

There is no indication yet of business blogs using the new Html standard with the exception of the EMBED tag, but once the standard kicks in it will quickly spread especially considering how few blog content management systems power the majority of blogs.

After visiting hundreds of business blogs and looking at data related to Html tags use it stroke us how monotonous the blogs are and how they lag behind in content and search engine optimization compared with other types of Web sites. We think the reason is how many of the blogs there exists today use the same blog management systems and therefore similar or even the same suit of templates as well.

However, blogging is primarily an opinionated vehicle that continues to provide and empower worldwide communication of a proportion never seen before on our planet Earth.
