What is a Blog?

A Blog is a truncated term for “weblog” which is a discussion or informational site that consists of entries (known as posts) that are usually displayed in reverse chronological order. Although on our site, you can do them in chronological order. A blog is interactive in that people can comment on your “blog” and you can respond to them. All of these comments and responses are public and everyone can see them.

When you create a blog on the Boatbuilder’s Blog, it’s actually a blog within our blog, so to speak. That’s a lot of blog going on! When you create a blog, it will not immediately show up on our site as we at Glen-L have to approve it first. This is so that folks with no scruples can’t just post whatever they want—and trust us, they try.

Once we approve it and it’s on our site, when you add to it, it will automatically show up with no wait. However, if you start it on say June 4 and then by the time you add to it, there have been 5 other blogs created, yours will be below all of those. But, if you let us know you’ve added to your blog we can move it to the top. Plus, we’ll mention it in our next Newsletter too!

The purpose of this blog is for you to inform other builders and/or potential builders, about the Glen-L boat you are building. Once you start building a Glen-L boat is when you want to start your blog. You can chronicle your build and use photos to show your progress.

We hope you’ll use this blog to share your project with other builders because it’s so helpful to our community. Thank you so much and if you have any questions, be sure and contact us at info@Glen-L.com.
