How to start a blog - part 1

Hi, welcome to my guide on how to start a blog. I would like to thank you for coming to my guide. I am probably going to span these lessons over about three or four posts so make sure you stay tuned in. Now lets begin.

Starting a blog, is it free?
This is questioned is one of the most asked questioned to beginner bloggers. Most them think that blogging cost to much money for them and that they will never be able to unlock the riches of the blogging comunity ,but they are sadly mistaken. To make a blog all you need is a name, email adress and some ideas. These are all very simple items except for the last one which will slowly come to you after many blogs.

Where do I go to start my blog?
There are many places that support bloggers ,but one of my favorites is blogspot. They are very easy to use and offer many different options on setting up your blog. The main reason people use blogspot so much is because it is so easy to hook up to adsense. "What is adsense you say" Adsense is a google owned website that pays you for placing their ads on your sites. This is the main way to make money on blogs. The reason blogspot is so easy to get ads on is because google owns blogspot which is great for all of us bloggers.

How to start my blog?
For this section of the guide I will show you how to make a blog. One of the main parts of making a blog is deciding what to blog about. This is VERY important. I will discuss how to pick good blog topics or niches as they are known in a later post. For now I will just go through the process making a blogg about people favorite kinds of food.

Now I am going to sign off and allow you to ingest what I have told you. Think about what you want to write your article about remember this is VERY important. Your homework is to go blogspot and make an account there, this is very easy and should only take a few seconds. Also go to google adsense, make an account there too. If you already have an account with google that will work just fine. I will write the second part of my guide on how to start blogging tomorow.
