Did you know, there are around 1,89,72,88,450 websites on the Internet as of this moment? In fact, by the time you read this, there will be thousands more! Many of these websites are what we call blogs.

As you might already know, blogging is one of the most popular media for publishing content on the Internet. Given the rate at which new blogs are cropping up and established blogs are growing, they are not going anywhere.
