Have you ever thought about the power that your blog has? Blog is a tool which can convey your thoughts to millions of Internet users. You can create a post and in minutes this is online and your visitors can get your message. Its not just like sending emails to your friends, but its a tool to send message to people who even you don’t know and people who are interested to know about the topic you have written.

News papers days are gone now, you do not need to be a qualified journalist, you can take your camera and shoot some video’s ,compress it and upload to a video hosting site like Youtube, Revver and many more, it goes live instantly. There is no restriction to express your thought.

You find a new information, which you want to share with others who are interested in that particular topic, just post it on your blog. There are lots of social networking sites, like digg, stumbleupon, sphinn, eref, and many more, just post it there and you will find tons of people into your blog.

Once your post is published, search engine spiders crawls your server and indexes the page for relevant searches. When a person Googling for relevant keyword on search engines like Google, Yahoo, the post get listed.

Power of blogging is unlimited, you can create a good social network, create new friends, grow your business, sell your products, earn money and more. Some people blog as a hobby and some are professional bloggers like Darren Rowse, John Chow and many. Darren’s blog, Problogger has subscribers around 48K when I checked last. Can you image, when he does a post, its read by 48K feed readers, has traffic in Millions, the message is spread like fire. When you go through Problogger’s post, you will find that every post in his blog has a good number of commentators. There are real people expressing their views and everything is automated. There is no need to send a post letter to the News paper editor, finally he approves and it’s published in the next issue. This was the past and now no body has time to wait. If you post something online, its really online in seconds. You are the publisher, editor and the first reader of your blog and you have the power to control it.

You do not need to be a programmer to create html pages or write script these days. Just need open source tools like Wordpress or Joomla, or Drupal. You just need to type in the post, insert, images, videos, audio, and click on the publish button and its live. I use Windows Live  Writer to update and post new pages on my blogs.

Earning through blogging is another power of a blog. There are lots of bloggers who are full time bloggers and earn from US$ 10K to 40K every month.

I am just trying to explain the power and potential of a blog . Every blog has its own power and potential and needs to used in the right way as there are very less control on a blog or a blogger.
