Top Five Places You Can Blog for Free

1) Blogger - Blogger is owned by Google and provides a variety of pre-made templates which can be customized to some degree. Advanced users are able to create their own blog skin or upload customized blog skins. Users are also able to incorporate Adsense into their blogs to earn advertising revenue. Learn more at www.Blogger.com.

2) MySpace - Unfortunately, MySpace has received negative publicity, mainly based on the fact that many of its users are teenagers and children. MySpace recently added new security features and continues to work on improving safety regulations. MySpace is a good choice for those who are looking to connect with like-minded individuals and is more of a social blogging community; as opposed to a business blogging community. Pre-made templates are provided, or users can upload customized blog skins. To learn more about MySpace, visit their website at http://myspace.com.

3) Live Journal - LiveJournal is similar to MySpace, in that it is a social blogging community. Members range in age from teens to mid-forties. You'll find everything from poetry to movies and dancing to photography. It's easy to create a blog with LiveJournal and as with most free blogging services they provide you with blog hosting. With LiveJournal, you can have your first blog entry posted within five minutes. Learn more at www.LiveJournal.com.

4. Blog.com - Although Blog.com is a free blogging service, they also have an upgrade service. Affordably priced, upgrades are available for those who need additional space for posting photos or for bloggers who enlist the help of guest authors. The free service is adequate for most, but you aren't able to alter the templates or change any code. The bloggers here seem to be a bit more blog savvy, and a little older than the bloggers at MySpace or LiveJournal. The program is easy to use and you can be up and running in about 15 minutes. Learn more at www.Blog.com.

5. Wordpress - Wordpress gives you options, options, options! You'll find dozens of well-designed templates that are easy to customize. You can customize the sidebar, upload your own photo or image for the header bar, and customize your CSS code. Blog hosting is provided for free, but you can also download Wordpress software to your computer and upload to any web hosting service you would like to use.

Wordpress includes a lot of privacy options, along with the world’s best comment and trackback spam technology. If you have a blog somewhere else and want to move it to Wordpress, they can help you do that quickly and efficiently. Learn more at: www.Wordpress.com.
