I want to start blogging with blogger/blogspot, and i need some inspirations from you guys Also you can share your blogging with blogger/blogspot experiences like your earnings, stories etc. Why i decide blogging with blogger/blogspot instead of wordpress/my own domain? because it's free, it can be monetized with adsense etc, and also you can decide to host your blog with your own domain later, or you can just leave it if you don't like. Another reason that i want to start blogging with blogger/blogspot is i want to have experience with it, i won't blogging about serious topics like SEO, gadgets etc with blogger/blogspot, because if i want to start blogging about serious topics is best to host it with wordpress/with your own domain, so you can have freedom about your blog from beginning, so i'm prefer to blogging about "light" topics but at least it can make decent of money( i don't mind to recieve my first adsense cheque within 2/3 months ), before i'm going blogging about serious topics and hosted it with wordpress/my own domain. Thanks guys Cheers
I used to have 2 blogspot blogs, but I rarely touch them these days since I am now enjoying my WP blog. Of course, it is better to use paid hosting rather than free. If you are just a newbie in blogging, and you will use blogspot then you are NOT expecting to earn your first $100 in just 3 months. Six months can be possible. Not unless you surround your posts with tons of Adsense and make your blog skyrocket to a very high traffic one.
I would suggest to try and decide on one subject and stick to it... if you write about too many subjects on the same blog it is difficult to find an audience that will stay loyal and keep returning... also as soon as you can afford, get your own domain name and hosting as that will give your blog much more professional image and will help in getting links and rankings.
There are a lot of ways to make money online strategies to choose from. Adsense is the most popular PPC site, but you may want to know its pros and cons which you can find here - Making Money from Adsense - Gain or Pain?. Now, for the paid hosting vs. free hosting issue. Although you can read tons of posts around, I will try to simplify them here. 1.0 Free hosting means you do not pay for it. But actually, you will be promoting your site. This means they can control the ads that you will place on your blog, do you like it? 2.0 Since it is free, they can cancel your account or delete your blog anytime they like. If that will happen, you will be starting all over again. How about that? 3.0 You will be only be allowed to use a limited space, tools, and do not expect a 24/7 technical support. Can you live with that? 4.0 Internet is business, and for a business to grow you need capital. Who do you think can earn more, the one spending or the one who's not? 5.0 Obviously, your blog is not really yours and you cannot sell it. Therefore, it's like you're working for them. Isn't that you decide to make money online because you want to leave the corporate / employed world? 6.0 Your will have sub domain, and therefore will have longer URL. Which is easier to promote, domain.com or domain.subdomain.com? Hope that helps.

Hey, I really appreciate for your good start.. I liked the way you started off by elaborating your views regarding blog... Start your blog with the topic which you are familiar, because that only helps you to write a QUALITY CONTENT. I'd like to say one thing about the blog. UNIQUE CONTENT and REGULAR UPDATING BLOG is the key for healthy blog. Good Luck !
If you want to learn blogging. I suggest you also sign up at wordpress.com no adsense there. But 90% of the bloggers eventually end up with a hosted Wordpress blog. Blogger is very different from Wordpress. Wordpress is much more flexible and can even be used like a regular CMS like Joomla! I do use blogger as well, but I use it to promote CB products. That is how I got started.
I am a newbie in the world of blogging. Please tell me that which platform is more easy to start with a blog. Also tell me the ways to promote that blog.
