Blogging still in nascent stage in India

November 28th, 2006 at 08:01 pm by ashok in blog

Indian blogging is still in nascent stage with only14% of netizens are blogging regularly. This is the finding of Blogging India: An MSN and Windows Live Report released on monday.

Some other notable finding of the reports are :

  • 39% of netizens are aware of blogs.
    A good number I suppose.

  • 76% of bloggers are male, compare to 24% female.
    I think 24% is not bad figure. It appears they will catch the male bloggers soon.

  • 54% of bloggers are between the age group of 25 to 34 and 32% under 25.
    Ya, I myself read many blogs written by teenagers, and bloggers in early tweenties. And they have good grasp on the topic they write.

  • 32% people read technology blog followed by 24% reading news and education.
    Because technology is taste of youth.

  • 90% bloggers spend more than 5 hours per week to read and updating blog.

    I think many bloggers spend more than 5 hours daily on reading and updating blog, and some even spend 5 hours to write an article.

      YES ASHOK I HAVE ALSO FOUND THAT RIGHT NOW MOST OF INDIAN BLOGGERS KNOW THAT THEY CAN EARN MONEY FROM ADSENSE AND THEY ARE INVITING THIER FRIENDS ALSO FOR BLOGGING . FOR EXAMPLE MOST OF THE YAHOO GROUPS NOW ALSO RUNNING BLOGS AT BLOGGER.COM . I FOUND SOME GROUPS LIKE CHOCOBLAST , CHUPPA RUSTAM AND MANY OTHERS……

      Interesting stats !

      Blogging is catching up in India, and hey, i know quite a number of females blogging. (not tech ofcourse)

      I’m however, surprised to see that personal blogs aren’t included in the most-visited stats. After all, personal blogs are way more common to us than Tech blogs and the likes.

      Hi,

      @Mr.Cool : Its catching up in India but to be honest its not proffesional.People just write for sak of writing.It will take time.

      @Atul : I agree with you.Not even yahoo but many it companies( i dont have the names) had started blogging section( not in india) for blogging on their products and other facts

      Regards
