Go With These Blogging Platforms
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Not only does it handle text, but you can give them videos and images, which they’ll do the same with as well.
