Learning how to start a blog may be easier than most people may think. There are many website guides that explain how a novice user can start their blog and build it.

The first thing you should think about before starting a blog is the topic you want to blog about. There are many bloggers on the internet and to stand out from them, you must talk about something unique. The best way is to choose a topic you passionate with and familiar about.

Select the type of hosting you prefer. You can host the blog yourself or choose a free blogging service that will be hosted by a third party. However, free blog services don’t allow you to transfer your site elsewhere; you’ll have to rebuild it if you ever wish to move the site. It is always best to host your own blog since self-hosted sites offer freedom and flexibility.

The next step is to decide on a blog domain name. Choose a domain name that relates to the type of topic you will be blogging about. Make sure that the domain name is easy to pronounce and remember as well. It will be easy for your followers to remember it and recommend it other users.
