Hello fellow bloggers, Recently I created a new blog on WordPress and on Blogger. I post personal writings on a daily basis and have currently gained 60 followers in two weeks starting from the bottom, which I'm quite chuffed with. However, in order to grow at a faster rate, I believe that community and collaboration is the key to success. So, I plan on creating a small network of up to 50 bloggers, whereby we can all collaborate in order to help each other gain more exposure by doing things like guest blog posts, special mentions and promotions etc. I put this idea into action when I owned a YouTube channel a year ago and it's probably one of the most effective and fun ways of exposing a blog without paying for expensive advertising. For more details on how you can get involved, please add me on Skype: furyishere My blog: http://thetragiclifeoffrank.wordpress.com/
If I might make a suggestion. Get a domain, a .com and hosting and import to WP self-hosted software That alone will do you a lot better than sticking with the free hosting side of WP
