Which blog site do you recommend?

I am looking to bring my blog up again but want a site with more options.

I don't know much about it, I would love to learn more about blogs..... There seems to be quite a bit of WAH jobs that need bloggers.

Sounds interesting!!!!! Let us know if you find a good site with more options....

After what happened to you on your last blog, why would you want to have one again?? That was unreal.

I personally use blogger and it meets and suits my blogging needs :)

I too use blogger.com for both of my blogs and am quite happy with it.

Personally I like Xanga - I've had a blog there for about two years now. Only bad thing about it is the only people that can read it are other Xanga members.

I have never blogged.? But I've read alot of different blog's, and it seems like something fun and interesting to do. Any suggestions on how to start a blog or become a blogger ?

I would suggest a simple to use one like blogspot or blogger.

Blogger (or Blogspot) is good . I just don't like to feed the monster that is google, so I use VOX, the problem with VOX, is you need to be a member in order to comment on anyone's blog. Thanks goodness I have some diehard followers who joined just to comment. These are all good for the hobby bloggers...if you want to get more variety and learn more to enter the professional arena, WordPress is a good one. But be forewarned it is not for the faint of heart and takes some work to understand and get proficient at it YMMV :)Type Pad is another, but you pay and it is more for the profesionals Vox and are Type Pad both owned by 6part.

Thanx you guys. I will check it out.

[b]I'm actually new to blogging, too. I ended up at blogspot. I just wanted a place to try and get referrals for the places I use, and this was a way that was recommended to me. At the same time, it's just a way to chat about things. Maybe it's therapeutic. I have no idea who is reading it or why. lol -- but it's there, and it's growing a bit. I used to wonder who the heck would care what I had to say about anything. Anywho -- good luck to us all!

I use Wordpress and I love it:)

I think which site to use depends on what you plan on doing with your site. Supposeduly WordPress doesn't want you to make money off your blog if you host it there. But it you really like blogging I'd suggest you get your own domain anyways.

I had my first blog at WordPress, just using a basic template, which I later transferred to my own domain. Then when I was no longer seeking clients for it I dropped it.

I had an idea for something new, had a cute graphic set up by a lady who could only do blogger not wordpress - I've tried messing with it, but don't like blogger as much.

I've got 3 blogs I'm trying to get going now (you can find them all from my sig below). I know it's too much. They are all free wordpress templates. I just like wordpress better. I find it's easier to find information for how to do things too.

I have four blogs on Blogger and I really love it. It's really easy to use and they now have a feature where you can schedule (or back-date) posts. It's great.

I personally use blogspot as well,but I'm new to the blogging myself I just never had time. However, now I use it to vent about the daily trials of running my business; as well as some self promoting.

It's mainly for entertainment purposes

Here's my blog: http://cashcowchaching.blogspot.com/

I'm going to trying to improve it and really get it out there... I just don't have anytime would love to speak with anyone who has a real firm grip on this blogging thing and could give some great advice.

Thanks a bunch!

For my personal blog(s), I have one over at Livejournal that I've had for... ohhh, seven years, now. With the sale of LJ to a Russian-owned corp, though, and their community care going down the tubes, I went to Insane Journal and bought myself a permanent account over there when they were having a sale. IJ doesn't have as monstrously huge a user base as LJ (and the layout is kinda fugly), but I kinda like that - not as many server issues and they really do care about their users (kinda like LJ used to). I also have a fanfiction journal that I've been using for about two years and I cloned that one over to IJ also, given Livejournal's penchant for picking on fanartists (meh!).

As for my new 'pro' journal, I'm using Blogger. It's nothing too fancy or fussy, but it gets the job done. It's kinda like a 'work' desk versus the desk you have at home (my IJ/LJs).

Plus, over at AdultMaven, they encourage you to do blogs (they have a blogging system already in place over at the site, I think, so you don't have to open a separate blog elsewhere) to draw more traffic to your reviews - and I know I need to get off my bum and start posting over there.



... I never realized until now just how many blogs I actually have! XD
