Creating a blog – How to

So you want to create a blog, but don’t know?  It is very easy to do, and you can go here to check out our step by step guide creating a blog.  Before you do that, however, let’s take a look at your options.

When creating a blog, there are a number of platforms available.  The best choice, in my opinion, is to get your own domain name and hosting, and create a wordpress blog.

This way, you own the domain, you control the hosting, and if you want to monetize your website down the line, you will want to be sure you are in full control of all your site resources.

Even if you don’t want to monetize your site down the line, you will not have to worry about your free provider shutting down, and seeing all your hard work and writing go down the drain.

In all cases these days, I believe it to be best to have your own domain.  There are even more benefits to this, but the bottom line is that setting up your own blog is so easy, there is no real reason to rely on free blogging platforms any longer.

Setting up a wordpress blog does not take any html knowledge, and even those with almost no computer skills can put together a professional looking site.

Don’t believe me?  Visit the link above and we show you in detail, with screen shots, exactly how to set up your own blog.  It will take less than an hour, and will require no expertise on your part at all.

If you have been interested in getting online, whether creating a blog or a website, but have been held back due to your inexperience or lack of knowledge, don’t wait any longer.
