As the internet and technology become more ingrained in our day to day lives, the benefits of blogging or building a website become impossible to ignore. However, unlike in the early days, bloggers don’t need to have computer science degrees or HTML knowledge. Software such as WordPress.org and “how to start a blog” guides have made it simple and easy to set up a blog in 15 minutes. If you’re unsure of whether blogging is right for you, use a free blogging platform for a few months before transitioning to a self hosted solution. Most people don’t get what makes blogging so powerful, helpful, and beneficial. To put an end to this, here are the biggest benefits of having a blog I have enumerated below:
Express Yourself. Blogs that serve as a platform for people to voice their ideas, thoughts, and feelings. Blogging gives you the opportunity to connect and network with the individuals who share the same passions. A blog is an expressive medium that can contain words, images, and sounds. Whether your blog is business affair or a personal diary, blogging is powerful form of self expression.

Build Trust. Trust is a rare and valuable commodity online. You can’t buy trust. It has to be earned by demonstrating your commitment to your readers, time and time again. As it turns out, that’s exactly what good bloggers do by regularly posting valuable, honest articles on their blogs. The more people whose trust you’ve earned, the easier it will be to accomplish your goals online.
Online Identity. Whether you’re a person or business, there’s probably lots of information about you online. When somebody searches for you online, you want to make sure that they get an accurate and complete picture of who you are and what you’re all about. Starting a blog that covers all the bases is a great way to give your online identity.
Make A Difference. Some people’s passions is to support a cause. Whether it’s a political, environmental or social cause, a blog is a great way to build awareness and garner support.

Feedback. An author has to wait months between finishing his/her book and reading the reviews, but bloggers get to read their readers’ comments the same day they click ‘publish’. This makes blogging a great way to get feedback on an idea that you want to develop further. Having an outside perspective and a little bit of constructive criticism is invaluable.
Learn About People. Bloggers spend most of their time sharing their ideas and insights with their readers. You’ll find that your readers share a lot with you too. Knowing about your audience is invaluable. As a blogger, achieving this type of insight is a natural byproduct of your day to day routine.
