Wanting to start a new Blog...Help

[kristyhardy]

I want to start a Blog to complement my Scrapbooking/ Cardmaking business site. However, I am so new to this. Any suggestions on what sites are the best for doing blogs?

Check out wordpress.com

thanks...someone else suggested wordpress also!!!

I think wordpress is so much easier to use - across the board - than blogger/blogspot. Wordpress has templates you can use, too, if you don't want to, or are unable to, create your blog design from scratch. There are, just speaking of using their templates, many more designs to choose from than blogger/blogspot offers.

If you want to build a website and have a blog, I can tell you that I've used GoDaddy many, many times over the years to accomplish that; you'd pay GoDaddy for hosting your website and for your domain name and get your blog for free...linked (if you choose to link it) to your website. I build websites and blogs, that's my job, and GoDaddy is my go-to place for my customers.

Have fun creating yours!

Thanks for the advice. I have a web site now Scrapbooking Cafe Online, Making Crafting Affordable. I had one through Go Daddy .... hahah what a disaster!!! I use Just Hosting now. I think I will take another look at word press tonight.

You're welcome, Kristy. All that matters is that you find a system that works well for you.

I have to agree I have been using wordpress for about a year now and found it really simple
