The outcome of the material validation test by the material validator obtained "very valid" results with a standard of 4.38. While the practicality test was carried out with students  in the seventh grade of SMPN 12 Padang, the results were "very practical" with a standard of 4.31. Overall, it is possible to deduce that the learning webblog media developed is "very feasible" to utilize in social studies subjects for class VIII SMP.
