Blogging for exposure

Many celebrities, authors, and businesspeople blog to increase their online exposure. In other words, the primary goal of these bloggers is to get their name in front of a wider audience than they could achieve with a static Web site (or no Web presence at all). These blogs often include updates about the blogger’s career or business with some promotional content peppered in between knowledge-based or opinion posts.

A unique example of a blogger who writes for exposure is celebrity blogger Wil Wheaton, who was actually an early adopter of blogging. His blog, WWdN: In Exile, is a mix of great writing and information about his career

Blogging for business: You can find many types of business-related blogs on the Web. Whether a blogger is trying to share his knowledge of business, boost sales for his business, or indirectly promote his business, a blog is a great way to reach those goals.

The KeySplash Creative Conversations blog (http://keysplashcreative. com/category/blog; owned by KeySplash Creative, Inc., is an example of a small business blog used as a tool to share knowledge and indirectly promote that business to a wider audience.
