Well, first let’s identify what a blogger is.

The definition of a blogger is someone who makes their living blogging.

A web log, or blog refers to any writing, photography, film or other media that is self-published online. 

David Meerman Scott, a very successful marketing speaker, summed up the power of the blog, noting “You can buy attention (advertising).

You can beg for attention from the media (PR).

You can bug people one at a time to get attention (sales).

Or you can earn attention by creating something interesting and valuable and then publishing it online for free.”
