Let’s learn to make a blog together

Creating a blog or website is now a must. The era has entered the age of the all-internet. Everything is connected to each other. Through social media and websites. Besides being connected to each other, now everyone can also create their own media. Indiscriminately.

From villages to cities, from students to workers, farmers to employees, and from young to old. The goals are also varied.
For sales, personal expression, and means of socialization, until it just rides in. Everyone can make a blog to express
his opinions and comments on many of the events around him.

That’s what Anugrah Pambudi, website manager of the UII Communication Department, said. Pambudi said the benefits of actively writing and creating content on a blog or website are numerous. For example, they were developing writing skills by simply adding acquaintances and experiences from all over the world. Several blogs are also used to accommodate community aspirations and share personal experience tips.

“Apart from that, blogging can also help us develop language and photography skills,” said Pambudi, in a blog and social media management training on Wednesday (23/3/2022). The reason is, the more often we write and take pictures to always be active on our blog, the more skilled our abilities will be. As the saying goes, you can because you used to do it or as the Javanese proverb says: Witing trisno jalaran seko kulino, The more you try, the more you can.

In this collaborative training between the UII Communication Study Program and Diskominfo, Bantul, all participants also immediately started practicing creating personal blogs. Pambudi guides the training step by step until all participants have their own web blog address. “Hopefully, in the future all participants from the Community Information Group (KIM) throughout Bantul, will be able to raise local potential through news publications on their respective blogs,” said Narayana Mahendra Prastya, UII Communications Lecturer, executor of the Community Service Program this time. According to Narayana, apart from creating a blog, the participants will also learn how to write news and photography in the following days.

At this training opportunity, the blog offered is a blog with a Content Management System (CMS) output by WordPress. Blogspot is also recommended because it is not paid but has an attractive appearance. Blogs with WordPress and Blogspot systems have also been widely used to feel more stable and can last forever and never disappear in cyberspace.

Preparations to Avoid Culture Shock

Nadira talks about her preparations before she left for London, UK. Before leaving, she searched for articles about life in the UK (England). She did this so that later She would not be surprised by all the culture and way of life in the UK, which is very different from the way of life in Indonesia. She also prepared himself not to carry many things. “I only bring important things. Bring only a little stuff. Remember, I go there alone, and I have to bring all the stuff myself,” Nadira advised, remembering her previous trip preparations.

What she only know is how to behave in a place far from home. How to prepare to avoid all the culture shock. Prepare all of them in a simple way only. Conversely, what Nadira wants to say is don’t bother yourself. You are not in your hometown.

Nadira did not experience too many difficulties in the UK because she had prepared before departure. “I’m quite ready there. I’ve prepared a lot of tips for this and that. If you have to travel, how should you travel? So be more prepared for that.”

Even so, Nadira admitted that she still faced obstacles after arriving there. “I have to adapt again,” said Nadira.

Even though she has good English skills and is used to speaking foreign languages, Nadira still has to get used to speaking with English people whose words are sometimes difficult for her to understand. “In the beginning, sometimes I didn’t understand what they were talking about. It’s not clear,” Nadira said when she faced several people whose accents and vocabulary pronunciations weren’t very familiar.
