Having a blog is a great thing because
you can share anything you want. As you are sharing your experiences
with others, you are helping others in a way (…and if you are wise you
can also earn a decent income from your blog).
So you want to start a blog. That’s great! Not only is blogging a great pastime, but with a blog, you can express yourself in a unique way, help others with problems you’ve overcome, establish yourself as an expert, and even make money.
So
you want to start a blog. That’s great! Not only is blogging a great
pastime, but with a blog, you can express yourself in a unique way, help
others with problems you’ve overcome, establish yourself as an expert,
and even make money.
There are many blogging platforms which
offer you to start a blog for FREE, out of which 2 platforms are the
most popular ones and the most used ones, i.e a blog on WordPress.com
and the other is a blog on Blogger.com.
On WordPress you can
create new blog for free but it is difficult to use the themes you want
unless the default themes. Even if you can buy a domain you will pay it
for two or more services like for Domain, Hosting and For other money
plugins you may used for your blog SEO.
However, many newbies
who want to start blogging don’t want to make an initial investment of
funds to create a blog. This is completely reasonable to choose the
free and easy blogging platform which is Blogger.com. You can easily
make a free blog , as it doesn’t charge you for the hosting. It
requires a little technical and HTML coding knowledge to modify your
theme, but for a sweet and simple blog, Blogger is the best platform.
The
blog is hosted itself by Google. For initial stage, you can choose a
sub-domain with .blogspot.com as an extension which is completely FREE.
Later on, you can purchase a domain name (.com, .net, .org) of your
choice at very cheap price.
In this post i am going to show you
how to create free websites/blogs on blogger for free. As you finished
reading i hope you will create your blog completely. Additionally at
the end of this post i suggest you to watch our video guides on how to
create free blog.
Create free Blog on blogger
Step One: Open your browser and type www.blogger.com and login using your Google account. If you don’t have a Google (gmail) account, you can create one for free. For a first time user, you will see an option to use the identity from your Google Plus profile, or you can use your limited Blogger profile. I recommend using your Google Plus profile. Once you are logged in, click on “new blog” or click on this link to directly go to this link here.Step Two: Name your blog, the first thing you need to do is add a name and select your domain. During selection of blog name and address avoid using your personal name as the domain name, and instead use some generic domain name that you can brand later with a custom domain.
You can then select a blogger template or theme (you can change it anytime). Once you are finished entering you blog's information, click the “Create Blog” button to create your blog
Step Three: After creating your new blog you are redirected to blogger dashboard, the next step is publishing new posts. To start posting click on the New Post button at top left corner of blogger dashboard.
On the dashboard you have an option to write your posts on the blank post area. First enter your post title on the blank space provided and then add the post body you need to publish. During post time you can add image, videos and other contents.
After adding post titles, post body then add Label for your post. Label is the category of your blogger posts and it is located at top right of your post area as you can see on below image.
Finally after finishing all contents and labels you have to publish your posts so that the posts will be visible to all of your blog followers both on you website and search engines. Click on the Publish buttons on top right of your blog post area.
Like this you can publish hundred of posts on your blogger blog for free. But the great things is not that publishing and posting the posts, but it is all about how does your post and website will be visible and even if it is visible how much it will attract your blog followers. To get those things done you have to customize your blogger. This is starts from your blogger Themes and widgets, the first sight of your blog followers.
The second criteria you have to do with your blogger blog is that you have to deal with Search Engine Optimization (SEO). Search engine optimization is the process of getting traffic from the “free,” “organic,” “editorial” or “natural” search results on search engines.
Everyone who can search for something on search engines related with you blogger niche will redirected to your blogger by the search engines systems. On one of my last posts i wrote many things you have to know about search engine optimization you can read here: Search engines optimization for blogger blog.
