Blog Hosting Sites

Before you start blogging you have to find a reliable blog hosting site. So far I have only tried using 3 sites. Blogger.com, tumblr.com and wordpress.com and they are dependable and easy to use. There are hundreds of other sites that provides free blog hosting. Just choose wisely. Below are the definitions of blogger, tumblr and wordpress.

Wikipedia says:

Blogger is a blog-publishing service that allows private or multi-user blogs with time-stamped entries. It was created by Pyra Labs, which was bought by Google in 2003. Generally, the blogs are hosted by Google at a subdomain of blogspot.com. Up until May 1, 2010 Blogger allowed users to publish blogs on other hosts, via FTP. All such blogs had (or still have) to be moved to Google's own servers, with domains other than blogspot.com allowed via Custom URLs.




Tumblr, sometimes styled as tumblr., is a microblogging platform that allows users to post text, images, videos, links, quotes and audio to their tumblelog, a short-form blog. Users can follow other users, or choose to make their tumblelog private. The service emphasizes ease of use.



 WordPress.com is a weblog hosting provider owned by Automattic which opened to beta testers on August 8, 2005 and opened to the public on November 21, 2005. It is powered by the open source WordPress software. It is financially supported via paid upgrades, "VIP" services and limited Google Adsense advertising.
