Bullying and abuse via a blog's comments. People using the blog contents to glean personal information about a blogger such as where they live or which school they attend, and using that either to make contact or to steal their identify.
Blogger has all of the necessary built-in security measures in place that you would expect of a blogging service, so users can rest assured that their blog should generally be secure.
It can take a lot of time to gain traction and get traffic, whether through marketing strategies or organically. Even more so, it can take longer to grow a sustainable income. Blogging is certainly accessible to anyone, but it does require at least some technical knowledge.
Some bloggers fail because they don't research their audience, they don't tailor their content accordingly, they blog inconsistently, they don't use SEO best practices, or they don't promote their content. Let's take a closer look at the reasons why blogs fail, and what you can do to overcome these hurdles and success.
How Much Time Investment Is Needed for Effective Blogging? If your goal with blogging is making money from ad revenue, memberships, subscriptions, or product sales, you must be willing to invest time into your blog. If you abandon your blog after a few months or years, blogging is a waste of time.
If you want your blog to be public, disclose only what you want everyone on the Internet to know. Otherwise, keep your blog private. Periodically review who has access to your site and make changes if necessary. Keep details that identify you only to yourself and trusted people.
The lack of encryption, outdated software, or vulnerabilities in the code puts you and your site visitors at risk. In this case, you'll see a 'Not Secure' message to warn users that your website is not safe.
Phishing and Vishing. Bloggers who are extensively writing about themselves should consider extra security risks related not only to privacy, but also to identity theft and account balance.
To this end, Blogger works well as a regular blog but it's less useful if you plan to do more elaborate custom changes. An oldie but a goodie: Blogger started in 1999, and it still has plenty to offer today. Many businesses still use it, and it offers a blogspot.com domain as well as the option to buy a custom one.
WordPress.org is more frequently used compared to Blogger, with many themes and plugins to choose from to customize the look and feel of your site using no coding. If you know HTML or Java, it allows for that, too.
Yes, loads of people still use Blogger. It may be old, but it's still a very popular online blogging platform. It's easy to use and completely free, so it's a great way to start writing a blog.
Don't: Use the blog for advertising, third party content, career events, internships, job adverts, surveys (thesis related), surveys (asking for student preferences/opinions), etc.
If you want your blog to be public, disclose only what you want everyone on the Internet to know. Otherwise, keep your blog private. Periodically review who has access to your site and make changes if necessary. Keep details that identify you only to yourself and trusted people.
Break up content into multiple entries if needed. Don't: Use profanity or unprofessional language. Don't: Use other people's stuff without permission and credit. Don't: Combine too many style effects like bold, italic, or underline.
