Create a blog site and store blog data

[Elena2006]

Hi, I am going to create a Blog site in SharePoint. Can you suggest me the steps to create a WebPart for the Blog site. How we store the Blog data? How we handle the data in Category-wise? Please suggest. If possible write some good links also. Thanks in advance

What version of SharePoint are you using? A blog is out of the box functionality; A blog site is an OOB site template. The data is stored in the content database; there is no need to create anything.

MOSS 2007 Blogs provide some limited functionalities. Categorisation, Keywords, Comment Archiving and Moderation are not powerful enough. You can use CodePlex features for SharePoint and also can use BlogEngine.Net which is totally .NET based application. Regards Saanj

There is no foolish question, there is no final answer...
