It's smart to start your blog on good footing. It's difficult to change ways and begin again. Blogging with "free" blog hosting? It's true what they say, "You get what you pay for."
If it's within your budget at all, pay someone for website hosting and verify that your server can work with Wordpress.
When you are trying to choose the hosting company to host your blog, make sure that WordPress and Fantastico are included with your hosting package, unless you are quite computer savvy. Fantastico will instantly install Wordpress. The other option is the difficult task of downloading and installing Wordpress yourself, which is not something that is recommended for a novice.
Wordpress is easy to use and you do not need to be a computer programmer to be able to use it. It works as soon as it is installed, and you can begin blogging right away.
For what reason should you use WordPress, and not another type of blogging software? WordPress is the top brand. It has existed for quite some time. There is an wide variety of themes available through WordPress. (The appearance and feel of your blog can be altered with themes.) There is no need to know how to design or code, unless you want to make a change to "canned" functionality.
Plug Ins: You can add things to your blog with plug-ins. If you know PHP, you can make your own or you can select third-party plug-ins. The WordPress website offers plug-ins. There are quite a few of them and they do everything you can imagine -- there is even a plug-in that will generate an XML sitemap of your site for Google.
You can have total administrative control over your blog with Wordpress. You have endless options and few restrictions. The user management for Wordpress is excellent. For instance, articles can be written by authors; upon approval, editors can publish those articles; administrators can alter the design of the blog.
Don't waste your time, only to have to destroy all of your hard work and move it Wordpress.
