You can use wordpress (wordpress.org), if you already have a website you can either have the blog on a subdomain (e.g http://blog.site.com) or in a subfolder (e.g http://www.site.com/blog)

if you are a beginner try blogger.com it's easy to use, but make sure you have composed an article for your blog contents.

Are you referring to free hosting blog site? or you want to have a blog in your sub folder?

Anyway, you can also try https://www.blogger.com/start if you are referring to free hosting blog site..

If you have your own hosting and domain name, just go to your control panel (www.site.com/cpanel) and click the fantastico button. Its very easy to install your blog from there

Not all hosting companies provide fantastico

You can just go to blogger. It is easy to use, just spend few minutes on you and you will get the idea

I Have ---.blogger.com and ---.wordpress.com.
If you can use both of them, you will get the link to your site and some link to your site.

I'm a big fan of wordpress as well.

Its like renting a home vs. owning one - its usually better for most persons in the long run to own.

Same goes for blogging. Its generally better for most persons to own their own site, than to continue to build content on someone else's site that they control.

Since your starting on making blog. Try first blogger.com, its much simpler and easy to use.

since you are new to blogging, I suggest Blogger for its user-friendliness and simple structure.

corlock · 05-21-2008, 09:25 AM

yeah, blogger seems good for beginners, but if you like something different, there are still other options like wordpress and live journal...

I recommend wordpress.
I recommend using a host with fantastico, which really makes installing it easy.

Then you main site will be http://www.yoursitename.com
And your blog will be http://www.yoursitename.com/blog

Real easy to do, especially with Fantastico doing all of the set up work for you.

It's easy. I use blogspot and it's user-friendly. It provides a step-by-step instruction on how to create your blog.

raven1083 · 05-30-2008, 08:08 AM

are you talking about free hosted blog or a blog for your own domain name? if it is a free hosted blog i suggest you used blogger if it is for a same domain blog as your site you used worldpress.

hem · 06-11-2008, 04:18 AM

Have you created your email id. It is very easy and same as creating mail id. Only you have to choose blog name. I am using wordpress.com and blogspot.com. It is easy to use.

if your still new in blogging i suggest you to use blogger. it's really easy and provides step by step information.

Okay, here's a great example of "the elephant in the middle of the room." At least, for me.

For the last year I have hated wordpress... why? Because, it being one of the multitude of really poorly written websites, it never bothers to mention, straight up, that you can install it onto your own website...

I have been looking for software that I can install onto my website so I host my own blog... and, last year, while working for a company, I was asked to create a wordpress blog... but, at that time, nothing was mentioned on the wordpress front page about self-hosting the blog... the only option was, like blogger, to have them host it. Well, this was part of my job and I did it-- but I hated wordpress-- really hated it! And that's rare for me.

Why?

It's a personal thing... I feel the same way about MS-Word. Let's just say, I find it a little "too" user-friendly, in that, the attitude of the developers seems to be that everyone is a complete idiot -- so THEY decide everything... sorry.

I don't know about the majority of the world, but I know I get annoyed when a program tells ME what I can do-- or keeps "interpreting" what I'm doing. It's like an over-eager office assistant... one that keeps bringing you coffee every five minutes just because you said, "keep it coming."

Still... I looked over their site this morning and am thinking of trying the install... maybe. One thing I don't understand-- why the heck does it need a database? My host only allows me three and I think I'm at my limit right now... I have to check.

Well... I'll let you know how it goes... mind you, I've already started creating and maintaining my own blog page. It not that hard, really. (I'd show you what I've already started, but it's not allowed.)
