Using A Free Blogging Web Site




For first time bloggers, a free blogging web site is a



great way to get started in the blogosphere. Popular



blogging web sites like blogger and eponym allow users



to set up and host a blog without paying any fees at all.



This encourages people to start blogging, because the



fact that one of these sites can provide you with all of



the tools that you need to get your blog up and running



without spending any money means that you have



nothing to lose by starting a blog. The fact that it is so



easy to find a way to blog for free is one of the reasons



why so many people who have never had any other kind



of web presence before find themselves drawn to



blogging.





By signing up with a free blogging web site, you may



find it easier to get listed in search engines that you



would if you were starting your own blog from scratch.



For example, google runs the free blog hosting site



blogspot and crawls its pages very often looking for



updates, so if you have your site hosted by blogspot you



are almost guaranteed to be listed on google's blog



search engine. This easy access to search engines can



take some of the work out of promoting your blog, and



can help you gain a following with a minimum of



marketing effort.





If your blog attracts a large readership, you may want to



consider moving your site. Many people feel that being



hosted by a free blogging web site gives a blog a kind of



amateur flavor that is fine for a new member of the



blogosphere, but is not appropriate for a high-profile



blog. Having your own domain can help you make your



blog feel professional, and finding a company that will



host your domain is not difficult or expensive. Once



your blog takes off, you will probably be able to sell



enough advertising space to be able to afford to buy a



domain and pay for a hosting package, and still have



money left over. However, it does not make sense in



most cases to invest in these glossy luxuries before you



have a sizable readership.





Starting your blog on a free blogging web site is a great



way to build a following before you spend any money



on your blog. If and when your blog becomes popular



and you are ready to take the next step and purchase



your own domain, your readers will follow you to your



new home. The fact that it is possible to use a free blog



host like blogspost, blogger, or eponym as a kind of



incubator for your blog is great news for bloggers
