The typical blog formats are dead, but new formats like Medium and Steemit are well alive because users can quickly jump between contents of everyone else instead of one person.

I still believe in SEO and Backlinks.
Why do you blog? Readers. Ads click and item purchase. So keep on creating good contents for google.

Blog should work with Facebook Growth hacking for the best synergy.
Blog alone is futile.

Yeah, same question here.
Seems like FB pages are overtaking blogs.

Why not have both blog and fb pages?
I do both.
The reason people see blog is getting left behind is because they play fb too much. Plus in your fb page you know who like your page. As for blog you only get random visits. When you did not turn your blog into a multi platform and you did not nurture it, it will be dead.

Where is the sos? Worldwide or Malaysia only? And what type of blog is dead? Personal, freelance, or business?

If you are talking about worldwide and no specified blog type, they are definitely not dead. On the other hand, it's getting more famous. Google "top blog 2018" and you can see plenty of blogs still active and getting better & better.

Even for businesses, blog is one pretty good way to earn extra profit and fame. With the raise of affiliate marketing and ads sense, many use blog as the main platform to promote them rather than creating an expensive website.

It is now the world of Social Media! Imagine how FB has almost the same traffic Google has now.

Obviously, the key to success is patience and hard working. Besides, there are plenty of different way to make money online. For example, become a copywriter or affiliate programs etc. Another way is gambling and it works pefectly. I recommend this online casino 2019

I won't say blogging is dead. It is just that too many people are diving into blogging with the sole intention of making money and it now looks like a garbage.

Crappy articles with no content at all. Contents are copied from somewhere else. Newbies without credible content are demanding for free stuff. So you need Google's and social medias' help to market your content. Otherwise nobody is going to dig into a pile of garbage to find something worthy.

What do you mean by blogging is dead? As long as people still searching information with search engines, blogging will never die. If you talk about getting your blog profitable, that's another story. Thanks to the continuous changing of search engine algorithm, the web world is getting better. If you want to make profit with your blog site, you need to provide VALUE to your audience. It is quite easy to bring your website to your audience eyeballs with the combination of social medias. If blogging is dead, why website like says got founded. In fact, web blogging sites that fail to adhere the best design practice or fail to bring real value, which detected by the search engine A.I is dying and that is a good thing imo.

I personally like blogging even these days. I am even going to start a new blog soon. I will be using some of the templates from https://www.templatemonster.com/category/in...site-templates/ for it as I want to practice my HTML/CSS skill. I think it is a great way to do it. How do you make your blogs, guys?

We're kinda slow in adopting new tech. You see that even blockchain got lots of naysayers.
