Free blogging platforms best suited for monetizing
Many new bloggers often wonder if they should start their blog on a free host like this one or if they should just go all out and get a host and a paid domain name. In my opinion if you are just starting out it's best to first get a feel of whether you like the idea of spending long hours on the computer and getting paid a few bucks a day in return or you'd much rather stick to the 9-5 cycle like most folks. I started blogging in 2007 and there's no accounting for the money I've lost with hosting services and domain names that I have since dropped because the idea that seemed so great at first turned out to not be so great after all.
Rather start small, start on a free platform and if you go the monetizing route see if it brings any cents in. when you start doing well you can get your own domain name and either continue using free hosting or pay for hosting.
1. Blogger
Is wonderful for beginners. It's owned by Google but you can also use all your other affiliate ads on the blog.
2. Weebly
I found it hard to use all the widgets and I just gave up in the end. But for those of you who are not as technically challenges as I am, you can give it a fair go.
3. YolaSite
Yola looks more like a mini website than a blog but it has a lot of great features and built in widgets.
