What are the most profitable websites for blogging?

What are some good blogging websites to blog about ur life?

• I'm looking for a good blogging website to blog about my life experiences and opinions on various aspects of people and cultures, and other people are able to view my blogs n can express their comments.

• Answer:

  The service that's good for YOU depends on how you are going to construct and develop the blog, as well as and other preferences. I can tell you what services are popular. Wordpress (i.e. the http://wordpress.org version) is at the top of the list for people who run a web site and want to incorporate blogging or who want to do "multi-user blogging". Wordpress can be a bit complicated to use, but it offers the largest and most progressive batch of features. Blogger/Blogspot (http://blogger.com ) is at the top of the list for people who would rather have a service control the primary web site functions and provide automated tools/features (i.e. developer-hosted blogging, which is the Blogspot version of the site). Blogspot is well known for its ease of use. Livejournal (http://livejournal.com ) is easy to use, but lacks the depth of customization available in the other services. Wordpress can be used as a developer host (i.e. the http://wordpress.com version - which also has multi-user features). All of the above (except wordpress.org) are free developer-hosted services. Similar services are Vox (http://vox.com ), Typepad (http://typepad.com - can also work as a self-hosted blog platform), Travelpod (http://www.travelpod.com/ ), and Tumblr (http://www.tumblr.com/ ). You may want to check out http://blog-services-review.toptenreviews.com/ , which provides a listing of some top blogging services and features. With that said, you do have the option of creating a self-hosted/stand-alone blog where more of the site will be controlled by you. You would likely need money - $10 to $160 - to pay for a web host and/or domain name (prices vary regarding time range and offered features). You may need to purchase blogging software as well. There are some services that are all-inclusive - web hosting, domain name, blogging software in one package. See http://www.problogger.net/archives/2006/%E2%80%A6 for more details regarding your choices. Again, Wordpress.org, Blogger, Typepad Pro, and Movable Type (http://www.movabletype.com/overview/power-bloggers.html ) would be applicable as a blog platforms in that case. Also, this may be your best option if you want to help ensure that the blog stays active for a long time (provided that you can continually fund its existence) and that you can utilize or incorporate the most features. NOTE: You may want to post future questions about blogging in a subcategory of Computers & Internet > Internet OR the Computers & Internet > Programming & Design category.
