    I have many of my own sites but want to start writing a blog.

    I am unsure what the best method is.
    I can easily set one up on my site but feel that places like blogger.com or blogspot.com can offer more in the way of marketing and exposure. Is this true and if so which blog provider is best?

    It just depends how serious you are about blogging

    You can use Blogger on a .Blogspot domain or your own domain

    Put it on your own site. Either write your own software or use wordpress.

    If you have the resources to buy a host, domain etc then it is recommended that you go for your own domain.

    cool. I will use my own site then.

    I can easily get the software etc but was mainly concerned about marketing
