How Can I Start a Blog

By John Domenico

Many people ask, how do I start a blog? Well firstly, do you know what one is? Just to clarify with you, a blog is a personal/business web space where you can make unlimited posts or entries to it (much like in a diary), that appear in latest chronological order, which also allows for reader comments (interaction). Now, you know exactly what it is, here are the free resources that will allow you to create one.

Most blogging software websites will allow you to either create a space with the the blog software name in the domain or you can purchase a cheap domain and host the blog software on your own web host provider. I do recommend the latter as, that allows you to have a professional looking web address such as myblog.com, rather than myblog.blogsoftware.com or blogsoftware.com/myblog.

Here is a list of the best blog softwares out there. Just type one of the names below in Google search, and they will come up as the first result. There you can sign up and start creating a blog quite easily, even now if you wish.

Here is the list -

  • Wordpress (most customizable, and my number one recommendation)
  • Typepad
  • Blogger
  • Squidoo
  • Hubpages

Of course, there are many more around, but these are by far the best, most well known and easiest to start with. All have very good official instructions and help, but also provide a stack of other external resources and help from other users that should see you in good sted for creating a value packed blog.

The best part about running a blog is that you can even start to make money from it. This is just once of many benefits of running a blog. So now you know the answer to "how can I start a blog", maybe it's time you start writing about your passion today!
