Blogging can be a profitable venture, and setting up and maintaining a blog is quite straightforward. Picture a lifestyle where you earn money writing about topics that fascinate you, all while enjoying the freedom to work from anywhere at any time. This flexibility allows you to unwind and take vacations whenever you choose.
Setting Up Your Blog
In this article, we will explore the potential profitability of blogging and guide you through the process of creating your own blog at no cost! Interested? Let’s dive in!
First, we need to choose a blogging platform. You have a couple of options: you can either host your blog on your own domain or opt for a free blogging service. For beginners, let’s focus on the free options. You can start a blog at www.blogger.com or the newer and more advanced www.wordpress.com. If you’re tech-savvy, you may already be familiar with WordPress, a powerful and highly customizable blogging platform.
Blogger.com is owned by Google, which means your blog will be indexed more quickly by search engines. On the other hand, WordPress.com offers a range of features that can enhance your blogging experience.
Blogger.com is owned by Google, which means it gets detected and indexed by search engines more quickly. In contrast, Wordpress.com is a newer platform, so I can't provide a comparison regarding its indexing speed. However, Wordpress offers more advanced features, such as Trackbacks and Categories, and allows for better management of sidebar links (more on that later).
You can create a free blog on either Blogger.com (http://www.blogger.com/signup.g) or Wordpress (http://wordpress.com/signup/). Start by posting your first entry and exploring the various options and templates available.
Here are a few common blogging terms to help you get started:
1) **Permalink** – A permalink, or permanent link, is a URL (uniform resource locator) that directs users to a specific post on your blog.
2) **Trackback** – When you write about another blog post, your post can appear in the original post's comments section, allowing for interaction between blogs.
