As mentioned in the prior post, there are variety kinds of blogs. A large number of bloggers tend to blog about different things other than their personal life. They blog according to their own preferences.
According to Rowse (2005), there are 20 types of approaches to blogging and bloggers are not dependant on all of them. It serves as a guideline for the bloggers to present their prose in a non linear, much interesting way and thus also evokes creativity within themselves.
Due to the vast number of approaches that are listed by Rowse (2005), here I am going to use a simpler type of approaches in blogging to ease the understanding among the readers which are:
1. Text-based
• Personal
• Collaborative
• Topical
• Spam
• Corporate
The title itself has very much explained all. In precise, it is a different way of putting words together to express one’s thoughts. The only difference of this approach is the purpose that the bloggers are trying to incur in the reader through their posts.
2. Other media
• Podcast/ videocast
• Photologs
This approach of blogging is more unique as compared to text-based approach. It is a different way of presenting their posts which are recording ones’ thoughts through talking, video recording or uploading photos instead of the standard way of text.
Precisely, there are no particular ways to define appropriate ways of blogging. Instead, it is depending on what kind of approach is suitable for the particular blogger.
