Blogs for business?
-
Hi
Are any of you using Blogs for business websites? If so, can you please send me some links so that I can see how I can apply a blog to my business website.
Thanks
Jay

Generally speaking wordpress.com blogs are non-commercial blogs. WordPress.com blogs cannot be used to conduct business transactions and/or to drive traffic to commercial sites. Advertising is restricted. Only a single discrete affiliate link is allowed either on the About page or in the sidebar.
The two important threads to take note of when it comes to “business blogs” are found here http://wordpress.com/tos/ (particularly take note of the paragraph in purple) and here http://faq.wordpress.com/2005/12/08/adsense/
If you require clarification on specifics be sure to Mark in support through a feedback (button on top right hand corner of any blog page) or by sending an email to support at this domain.
If you are planning to have a fully fledged commercial blog then wordpress offers another alternative to a wordpress.com blog. You can either self host or hire a webhost and download a free wordpress.org blog from http://wordpress.org that runs on different software than wordpress.com blogs do. The differences between wordpress.com blogs hosted by wordpress and those hosted elsewhere are laid out in this thread https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=3700&page&replies=1

I actually do have a wp.org blog. Can you direct me to any blogs used fully for business? I just want to see the application.

You can take a look at the new Waiterblog.wordpress.com. I know the fellow who runs it basically earns his living setting up blogs for restaurants and food supply companies, and thus he has his own blog network. Waiterblog is sort of the central blog off which all the other ones hang.
