INTRODUCTION
I Created my first blog in 2019 with some computer experience. It took me
forever because I had to google my way through. It’s much easier these days! This how-to guide has step-by-step instructions in an easy-to follow format.
What is a blog?
A blog is a type of website with posts (articles). The newest ones are usually displayed at the top.
Why start a blog?
Here are a few popular reasons from my readers:
- Make money working from home. I make a full-time income blogging. Many bloggers do the same. Blogging takes work, but it’s a great opportunity due to low risk and low overhead.
- Become a published author. Publishers want authors to have an online presence. The reason is simple: it’s a lot easier to sell books to people who already know you. A blog is a perfect way to become known.
- Help your business or organization. A blog helps businesses and organizations reach a lot of people at little cost.
- Just write. If you want to write, share your story or encourage others, a blog is a great place to do that.
A blog is an online home you own and control. If you’re serious about breaking into the online space, don’t put your livelihood, brand or reputation in the hands of others (like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube or other social media).
How much does a blog cost?
If you use the method below, it works out to $5 to $10 a month. I blogged for years on this budget. As my blog and income grew, I started paying for more premium tools and services, but they are not required to start.
Can I start a blog for free?
Yes, but I don’t recommend it if you want to make money. Why? Five reasons:
- Limited money-making capability. Some free services limit the money you can make unless you “upgrade” to a higher level. You’ll have to pay for that upgrade of course, which defeats the purpose of having a free blog in the first place.
- Lack of support. Companies don’t offer free blogs out of the goodness of their hearts. They want to make money. If you’re not making them money, they won’t go out of their way to keep you happy. Sometimes this means you’ll have little to no support. Other times you’ll be badgered with offers for their paid-for products.
- Only basic features. Basic features might not be a problem at first, but as you grow, you’ll feel the pinch. Expandability and flexibility are key. Both are limited with free blogging services.
- Switching isn’t easy. If you want to switch to a better service later (common for those who start a free blog), it’s a hassle and can be costly. Doing it yourself takes a lot of time and know-how. Hiring someone to do it correctly costs hundreds of dollars.
- Can’t use others for inspiration. This happens to new bloggers all the time. They start a blog for free. Soon they notice cool features on other blogs which they want too. The problem is, those features aren’t options on their free servic.
