2) Which blog service should I use?
<Previous | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | Next>
When it comes to blogging, you basically have three choices: WordPress, Blogger, or Typepad. WordPress and Blogger are both free, while Typepad is a paid service. I recommend using WordPress, and here’s why:
I recommend using WordPress as your first blog because it is extremely user-friendly and gives you some great templates, widgets, and additional features. The beauty about wordpress is its ease of use. Tagging, uploading pictures, track-backs, and assigning authors and editors are beautifully done on the WordPress dashboard.
Blogger is the Google version of blogging. I use Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Docs, and pretty much everything else Google. I personally find that Blogger has fewer features and is a little bit harder to use – this may be because of my bias towards WordPress. In any case, Blogger is also a great tool to get started with Blogging and there are many people who use it.
TypePad is a paid service so it does have some features that WordPress and Blogger do not offer; therefore, they’re a great service for experienced bloggers and small businesses. As a beginning blogger, use WordPress or Blogger to get started.
