Dec 06I have only started blogging for just over four months ago. I started with a free blog and then moved my blog to my own domain only after making less than 10 entries in the original blog. Some 3 months later, I moved again to a new domain CJCM2u.com which is going to be a permanent address for my blog.
All the while I am an editor for my own blog. Along the way, I had been introduced to the idea of paid blogger, which can be a single author or co-author. When you co-author a blog, you and at least one more bloger would post entries to the blog.
Yet, there is another type of blog authoring known as ghost blogger. No…you are not a ghost when you become a ghost blogger, just that blog readers do not know that you are the one who are writing all the blog entries. This is because the owner of the blog still uses his or her name as the author of the blog. However he or she has engaged you to become a ghost blog writer and never made known to the blog visitor.
I believe there are many ghost bloggers out there in the blogosphere, but they are never popular or known to the readers or visitors. However, it is a different case for Neil Crespi, a Freelance Journalist, and the author of Squidoo. Besides being a Freelance Journalist, Neil Crespi is also a Part Time Blogger and Part Time Ghost Blogger. Naturally, it is not stated which blog he is a Ghost Blogger for, other wise he wouldnt be a ghost any more…right?
I for one do not like to be a Ghost Blogger. I’d rather be authoring a blog on my own or with other bloggers as co-bloggers. How about you?
