"I want to start a blog".

If that is what you have been telling yourself all this while then it is time to to start one.

It is free of charge, except your time and effort.

The most important thing is you must love writing and know a bit of search engine optimization (SEO), even though you are  not setting up a make money blog.

There are many free bloging platforms which you can choose from. Here are some of the more popular ones:

1. Blogger.com

2. Wordpress.com

5. Movabletype.org

6. Drupal.com

7. LiveJournal.com

Starting a blog is easy. the difficult part is maintaining it consistently with unique content.

So always choose a topic which you are passionate about. Topic which you have lots of new interesting ideas or stories to share with your readers.

One word of advice. Never fill your blog with plagiarized or paraphrased work from other people’s blogs.

Don't copy other people's content and pass it off as your original work. It is unethical and illegal as well.

That is why I have just said earlier, blog or write stuff which you love.

If you use Blogspot or Blogger, you could have your blog deleted as a spam or you could violate Blogger Terms of Service (TOS).

So if you think you are ready to share your thoughts or ideas with the world, it is time to stop saying "I want to start a blog".

Just do it. Pick any one of the above free blogging platforms and begin blogging away.

Welcome to the exciting world of blogging.
