It'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.
As far as using a platform goes, I've always had different opinions about this, as I've never known which way to go with things. I've tried so many different options, and at the end of the day I want something easy to use that looks great.
Having said that, I'd like to share my three favorite blogging services with you at the moment. Keep in mind that all of these can be used for free, though purchasing some add-ons could always enhance your blog if you wanted to.
First of all, I'd definitely recommend taking a look at Blogger, which is offered free of charge by Google. It's very easy to set up a blog this way, and you get the benefits of having your content indexed shortly after it's published.
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.
One of the best things about Wordpress is just how detailed these plugins are in terms of what they do. With very little Internet knowledge, you can easily have a robust website thanks to Wordpress.
The last one I'll mention is a more recent addition to the blogosphere, and it's called Posterous. This is a great service that allows you to post to your own blog without ever having to set it up. As long as you email them your post, they'll have it up automatically for you in less than a minute.
The same can be done for pictures and videos too, making it very, very convenient.
