dated or include new input on a daily basis. . Authorship In their study into corporate blogs Lee, Hwang, and Lee (2020) split them into five categories: the employee blog, written by any worker in the pany。 the group blog, which is a workers’ blog kept not by one person alone but by a set of experts。 the executive blog, written by management。 the promotional blog, which is an impersonal corporate blog seeking to spark discussion on products and events。 and lastly, the newsletter blog, which is also impersonal and aims to represent the pany stance through its information. We have used this blog authorship classification for our own study but brought it down to only three analysis categories: personal blogs, by public relations professionals。 pany blogs written by an employee, 2 either nonmanagement or management。 and public relations pany blogs. The largest share (%) of the blogs analyzed in this study is personal, written primarily by public relations professionals.

However, what is most striking in these results is the low percentage of corporate blogs written by employees, given the powerful municative tool that they constitute for organizations. Some panies have caught on to their potential and encourage their staff to keep blogs. These contain personal, subjective munication that is not directly sent out by the pany but by a third party who gives their own opinions and the information is therefore perceived as impartial and unbiased. However, the value of this type of munication lies not only in its impartiality but also in the personal information provided, which gives a human face to the pany and builds up a positive munity vision around it and its products (Lee et al., 2020). . Content Table 1 shows the main objectives of the blogs analyzed. As can be seen, most seek to ment upon topical affairs in public relations profession, as well as to voice personal opinions on these issues. Given that the blogs analyzed are largely personal, interest in the author’s contributions is understandable. Conversely, the low percentage of weblogs that aim to debate issues surroundin。
