Of course, since I am really a beginner, it was quite hard for me to determine which one is for me. So now that I have my own, and still on the process of making it better, I thought of making some list of blog host for people who wanted to have their own site but are afraid or have no idea where to start. Most of the beginners do not want to spend bucks for a site that they do not know how to operate, like me! So first thing is to look for free blog host. That means, FREE, no credit cards required! Here are the list of free blog hosts where you can choose from. I only included hosts that are quite popular.
1. Blogger.com - a blog publishing tool from Google. They say that this is so simple, however, there are lots of widget you can add to make your page unique. It is one of the most popular blogging program as this has been for long time and people are familiar with this. It is also Adsense (a Google-based ad programme) friendly, a plus point for people who want to earn extra bucks while blogging.
2. Weebly.com -users said that it is so easy, with the use of drag-and-drop interface, and allows to use customized domain name, however, it is so simple that you cannot do so many things. This is good for basic use.
3.WordPress.com - this one I found quite complicated, but it will be a good use for someone who has some knowledge on codes. This one is well-known for having an organize platform and rich features. But, unlike Blogger, WordPress does not allow Adsense.
4. Livejournal.com - this is a favorite for people who are interested in community blogging since it has good community oriented support. Livejournal however put ads in your site which you do not have benefits, that is quite a turn off.
In choosing your blog host, you must identify what are your purpose and capacity. Well, as a beginner, it is not bad to do some trial-and-error, right? Right!
