Do You Blog? by brianon: 5:15pm On Sep 02, 2011 |
When I visit blogs, I almost always see American or European authors and hardly any African ones, particularly Nigerians. I am just curious as to whether Nigerians are into blogging. If so, how seriously would you take it i.e. investing in building a Wordpress blog vs. signing up on Tumblr, getting hosting and a domain, etc. Or do you find posting on forums enough to satisfy your need to say something on the web. What about personal blogging? Do you do that? |

Both are easy to use. mail me for details. bamtiwa@yahoo.com NOTE: ABEG ITS NOT FREE OHHH!!!!, I bought them with money. i have limited licenses. the fewer my licenses become, the higher the price will go |
Re: Do You Blog? by brianon: 12:20pm On Sep 06, 2011 |
Thanks for all your replies, everyone. Keep them coming! @teewahh What was the name of the software? If you mean blogger, wordpress, clickbank or amazon, those are free to signup for (or download in the case of self-hosted wordpress blogs). |
Re: Do You Blog? by teewahh: 12:23pm On Sep 06, 2011 |

I have two blogs: http://fabulosityreads..com/ for book reviews and interview and http://fabulositynouveau..com/ as my personal journal blog. I love doing them and they are definitely much more satisfying than just chatting or posting in forums. My forums have become more like mediums to let you in on what's happening on my blogs. I even recently got an invite to contribute articles in two forum, one is a community blog:http://mochagirlsread./ and the other a UK Based magazine : http://peoplewithvoices.com/our-contributors/#.TsDMs0OBqU8 (they actually post books to you - awesome) - I'm really excited and I can see now that blogging has unexpected benefits. |

X_factor: Nice to see you enjoy your blogging. I should be a great blogger by now but other things distract me and I cannot complain because I am becoming so good at many things which I think is just great for the future. |
Re: Do You Blog? by MyneWhite1(f): 11:52pm On Nov 14, 2011 |
Congrats! X_factor: |
Re: Do You Blog? by iice(f): 10:29am On Nov 15, 2011 |

Poster, There are over a thousand Nigerian bloggers and some of them are professional bloggers. A number of Nigerian bloggers are among the best in the world and are blogging for leading American and European news media channels. Here is a sample on http://www.zdnet.co.uk/blogs/gateway-to-success-10006336/mandriva-is-crying-wolf-over-loss-to-microsoft-in-nigeria-10006340/ |

Well its a very difficult thing to blog in Nigeria i must confess and the major challenge is light and good internet i have been blogging now for couple of year and i will say its difficult in Nigeria .To make matter worse we have some unless hosting company whose there down time is so high and you can never know until they host you.The most annoying thing about the hosting company is that while your own site is down there own will be running.Presently am having a problem with the two of my site with this my presently host.My advice to any body that want to blogging they he should get a foreign host that all |
Re: Do You Blog? by pheesayor(m): 8:50pm On Nov 23, 2011 |
I've started a couple of google () blogs, still continue with some but have left some http://pheesayor..com http://healthyytips..com (discontinued) and a couple of others I can't remember right now |

Yes I blog. It's free therapy Like SAfulfill, blogging in Nigeria is difficult to a nightmare. My blogs have been more or less abandoned, think I managed to post a couple of times in the past year, and that was using my phone; 2Kbps CDMA 1x speed on a laptop is soul destroying. |
Re: Do You Blog? by passyjango(m): 10:32pm On Nov 23, 2011 |
SAfulfill: You must not host your blog in Nigeria, you can use a reliable foreign host. There are dozens on them online. Also do not buy your domain name from the same host so that it will be very easy to leave when you are not satisfied with their service. They will normally offer a free domain to tie you in, but it is best practice to buy your domain separately. |
