Wordpress.org is the best paid blog platform.
WordPress.org – Wait, what is the difference between wordpress.com and
wordpress.org? To put it simply WordPress.com is where you will go to set
up a basic, easy blog with limited features. WordPress.org is where you will
go to get a self-hosted wordpress blog.
How to Setup a Self-Hosted Blog
You can skip this section, if you are going to be using one of the first three options
above.
Getting a self hosted blog from WordPress.org is probably the top choice for most
bloggers. It does require more work up front and does have small costs associated
with it: buying a domain name (around $10/year) and hosting your blog (around
$10/month).
It is the best way to customize your blog’s look and other features, and the best part
is you can use your own domain name (i.e. yourblog.com). WordPress.org has a
great step-by-step guide for getting you set up in case you need guidance.
Start by purchasing a domain name.
Domain Samurai is a good tool that will help you enter in a keyword and then
find a bunch of related domains that are still available. Go for a .com rather
than a .info or .us or anything else for that matter. A .com is always going to
hold more value than any other extension. For a simpler tool, just go to
psychicwhois.com and find an open one.
That is it for this post. next one will be about Creating and Managing a successful
Business Blog.
Look for it very soon.
