What Blog.ng is
Blog.ng is a web publishing platform for Nigerian stories and journals, built and operated by Bolrach Technologies Limited in Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria.

Creators can earn through tips, paid journals, memberships, supporters, and paid newsletters. Discovery is available through Explore, Trending, and Topics. The service is intended for Nigerian storytellers writing in English, Pidgin, or a Nigerian language. Payments for tips, subscriptions, and payouts use Paystack and Flutterwave. Nigerian creators can receive money in Nigerian bank accounts and mobile money, with weekly payouts on Starter through Pro. Writers retain their rights and can export their writing.
