    Just wondering what your experience with blogger is? I'm currently using it;
    http://www.dreamwarestudios.blogspot.com
    And I'm happy with it so far. I also had the option of using type-pad since I know a guy who has an account on there and is willing to let me use it but I ended up just using blogger.

    Blogger is the best free option. Some of the other ones like Wordpress and Yahoo360 won't let you put ads on them.

    blogger is really easy to use and you can place adds and affiliate links on your blogs as well.

    Wordpress not customizable enough for my liking unless you pay for upgrades. The best thing about free wordpress is how fast the search engine indexing is! The worst thing is the stupid tiny black smiley faces the basic templates have on them!

    :eek: You must be speaking of free hosted Word Press.

    Yes blogger is a good choice for free hosted, but when you get serious, you will want to play on the big monkey bars and self host your own blog with Word Press.

    If you leave the other blog management aspects. I will still prefer you blogger instead of any other blog or system including wordpress. I have generated a good revenue from blogger.com due to its search engine optimization. But now I have shifted from blogger to wordpress. My sale has been effected. My page rank is also effected. That was a very bad idea.
    So keep yourself intact with blogger.com

    Blogger is a great place to start as it is free and allows for adsense/advertising.

    If you can afford hosting, I would go for wordpress though as it is a lot more professional and flexible.

    At the moment I'm making some money and getting some good visitors on my blogger blog. I've changed the template a lot (thanks to free downloads and tutorials) and you can;t really tell it's done on blogger anymore. - check it out: www.gxpblog.com

    That is pretty good. It almost looks like a Word Press template. Nice Job.

    This is just an example of why you should start with self-hosted WordPress if possible.
