Choose These Blogging Services
Sunday, November 8th, 2009It’s been quite some time since I started my first ever blog, and there have been many of them since my first. I’ve written about so many different things you wouldn’t believe it. Everyday topics like politics, and not so common topics like the Little Tikes kitchen. Men’s interests like sports, and women’s interests like the Kate Spade handbag.
At first, I was a little lost for ideas as far as which blogging platform to go with. I must have tried fifteen different services when all was said and done. The most important thing to me was that I had something that wasn’t too difficult to work with.
I’ve been through my share of good ones and bad ones, and I’d like to tell you about three of the blogging platforms that I’ve found to be the best of the bunch. The best part is that these are all free.
If you’ve never blogged before, you might want to go with a Blogger blog to start out. This is a service that Google powers, and you know it’s got to be good if they’re behind it. It couldn’t be easier to get started.
2. Wordpress. I absolutely love Wordpress as a platform because of all of the plugins available. There are really so many of them to choose from.
There are so many different ways to take advantage of Wordpress plugins, and I’d definitely suggest playing around with it if you have a decent knowledge of the Internet.
Then there’s yet another one, and it’s a newcomer to the scene but a great platform nonetheless. Check out Posterous when you can, as I’m sure you’ll be impressed with its offerings. There are many different things you can do, but the best element is its simplicity. You can literally make a blog post by emailing them.
The best part is the fact that you can upload videos and pictures directly to the blog via email, and they’ll post those too.
