What am I posting about now? Got any clue? Blogsvertise? Two words put together to give a new meaning... Blog and Advertise.
I've always been a fan of Merriam-Webster Dictionary and I thought I could check their site and find out the exact meaning of the word blog.
Here it is:
blog
One entry found.
Main Entry: blog
Pronunciation: \ˈblȯg, ˈbläg\
Function: noun
Etymology: short for Weblog
Date: 1999
: a Web site that contains an online personal journal with reflections, comments, and often hyperlinks provided by the writer
— blog·ger noun
— blog·ging noun
Of course, I didn't pass up the chance to find out the exact meaning of Advertise, if ever it goes against the ideas I have in my head:
advertise
One entry found.
advertise
Main Entry: ad·ver·tise
Pronunciation: \ˈad-vər-ˌtīz\
Function: verb
Inflected Form(s): ad·ver·tised; ad·ver·tis·ing
Etymology: Middle English, to pay heed to, observe, notify, from Anglo-French
advertiss-, stem of advertir
Date: 15th century
transitive verb
1: to make something known to : notify
2 a: to make publicly and generally knownb: to announce publicly especially by a printed notice or a broadcast c: to call public attention to especially by emphasizing desirable qualities so as to arouse a desire to buy or patronize : promote
intransitive verb
: to issue or sponsor advertising
— ad·ver·tis·er noun
And so we put the two words together and we form the word Blogsvertise.
What then now? What in the world will Blogsvertise do to me, my life and of course my blog life? What good will it do to me? Is there any?
Blogsvertise says it would benefit the blogger, in this case me, the advertiser (the one who has something to sell) and the readers! Cyber-readers!
Say, I write something about their products, I get the money, you learn something new about the product and the product reaches the readers. In a click of your button.
