Why Not Start Your Own Website or Blog?

Starting a blog or website is absolutely free. Why haven't you created yours yet?

There are many people who don't know how to create a website, market it, or transform it into a viable space for selling their products or services, and this is what ultimately leads them to just continue putting off creating their first website. Honestly, it's much easier than you think.

Unless you have huge plans of creating a social network or website that requires an advanced back-end area or features beyond what is included with many hosting providers, there will be a solution out there for you.

As long as you are able to copy and paste image links (when embedding images and video into your content) and have the desire to create unique content, you can get started today. It might only take three minutes to sign up for a Blogger or WordPress (more limitations) account, but you'll be able to begin marketing your blog within a few days of posting content.

Even if you need more resources (you want to be sure you don't have to transfer after a brief period of time), you can go with a paid service, which will dramatically increase what you can do and may even give you a free .com name. Many "value" hosts are between $5 and $15 per month, coming out to between $60 and $180 per year, again depending on what you are looking for.

As soon as you have ensured that your blog is being indexed, you'll probably begin noticing traffic coming in. You can, at this point begin monetizing your blog, as you will have potential customers and people who will be clicking on ads.

After that, it is ultimately up to you as to how you market and promote your blog. Every blog and website is different, so I couldn't present generalizations within a few lines at this point. Given all the opportunities and options out there, why not start a blog today?!
