Types of blogging communities & methods to build blogging communities

What makes up a blogging community? Blogging communites are actually made up of bloggers united by a common blogging website such as an advertisement provider like Nuffnang (an online blog advertising community for the region of Asia). There are three categories that the blogging community can be divided into. Community one, one blogging platform many authors. Community two, where there is one site that unites the bloggers while community three are madu up of bloggers and readers that are connected though social networking.

As mentioned by White (2006), individuals can begin blogging as a medium for community development in areas of technology, social architecture, role of subject matter and issues like life cycles and scalability. For that reason, when building a blogging community, the blogger must one way or another, have connections with other blogger’s website. Nikkis (2009) stated that they can participate in responding to their posts and make their own blogs entertaining, and have frequent updates as well as market their blog to increase readership.
