Try These Blogging Platforms
I’ve been a blogger for several years now, and I’m always open to the idea of trying out new blogging platforms. I’ve blogged about a wide range of topics, and my friends often laugh at me about this. From the tongue scraper to wine goblets, I’ve blogged about just about everything.
At first, I was a little lost for ideas as far as which blogging platform to go with. I must have tried fifteen different services when all was said and done. The most important thing to me was that I had something that wasn’t too difficult to work with.
While many were great, there are some that I’ve liked more than others. Generally, I stick to three now and what I go with really depends on the needs of the blog. Here are my top three, as I’m sure that one of these will be a great fit for you.
1. Blogger. Google’s blogging service is a great one, and it couldn’t be easier to set up a blog through this. It’s free, it’s intuitive, and you’re sure to get indexed pretty quickly because of the company behind it all.
Secondly, I would definitely look into Wordpress if you want to be a bit more adventurous. The many widgets and plugins offered through Wordpress are phenomenal.
One of the best things about Wordpress is just how detailed these plugins are in terms of what they do. With very little Internet knowledge, you can easily have a robust website thanks to Wordpress.
Then there’s yet another one, and it’s a newcomer to the scene but a great platform nonetheless. Check out Posterous when you can, as I’m sure you’ll be impressed with its offerings. There are many different things you can do, but the best element is its simplicity. You can literally make a blog post by emailing them.
Not only does it handle text, but you can give them videos and images, which they’ll do the same with as well.
