Blogging started as a diary-style entry where people document their day-to-day activities. It has revolved into one of the most influential marketing tools and home-based businesses of the 21st century. Most entrepreneurs capitalize on blogging to serve as a source of livelihood.


Ameyaw Kissi Debrah, known professionally as Ameyaw Debrah, is one such entrepreneur. Ameyaw Debrah founded ameyawdebrah.com, a lifestyle and entertainment website and blog that mainly reports and publishes news about Ghanaian celebrities.


Early life and career

He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in publishing and served his nation (National Service) at Ovation International Magazine in Accra. At Ovation, he wrote about the happenings in Ghana’s entertainment space to the magazine’s international audience.
In 2007 after his national service, he lent his passion for blogging to some pan-African websites such as Jamati.com, and Orijin-ent.com.

The website/blog, ameyawdebrah.com was made possible thanks to a friend of his who helped him acquire the domain and hosting service.
