4. Blogging can open up amazing opportunities for you to earn an income, one of the biggest benefits to getting into this space.
Blogging gives us a place to express ourselves.
Something very powerful happens when you get into the habit of ordering and writing down your thoughts, ideas, stories and opinions.
People have been doing this for centuries in private diaries and journals. But to put some of these things into a public forum for others to interact with has been a very positive experience .

5. Blogging has evolved The earliest blogs were usually hand-coded, as no ready-made blogging tools existed. Tools such as Blogger, MovableType, TypePad and WordPress followed, and today there’s an entire industry of blogging tools.
Similarly, the ways people use blogs has changed.  many bloggers described their blogs as online diaries where different topics sat side by side quite comfortably in a myriad of different categories.
Finally, we’ve seen an evolution in the benefits and outcomes people hope to achieve with their blogs. While self-expression is still why many people blog, others want to make a profit or use their blog to land other opportunities that will bring them financial reward.
