Blogging Terms that May Help You

What you write on a blog is called a post. When you post something on your blog,

 

WordPress creates something called a permalink. Which is a term for a permanent

 

link to your post. You can give this URL to anyone so they can view that specific

 

post.

 

When someone comments of your post, that is called a comment. When someone

 

comments on my post, and then decides to comment on it on their blog so their

 

readers can benefit, that is called a trackback.

 

Another term is RSS feed. What RSS does is allow someone to subscribe to your

 

site, and read your material from their RSS reader, as opposed to visiting your

 

site again. You simply get to read whats on my site, without having to come to my site by reading it through your RSS Reader. 00021.jpg
