How to Create a Blog on Blogger - Usually, beginners who are the first time to enter the world of blogging, don't want to spend capital to create a blog, and that's fine considering they are new.

There are even professional bloggers who still use free services for their blogs.

Currently, there are many blogging platforms that offer to create blogs for free, such as Blogger.com, Wordpress.com, Thumblr.com, Weebly.com and there are still several other platforms.

However, Blogger.com and Wordpress.com are the two most popular and most widely used free blog services.

Especially in Indonesia, more people use Blogger.com services to create free blogs. Besides being practical and easy to create, Blogger.com has also been integrated with Google services.

This Blogger service is usually also referred to as Blogspot because the free blog address created on Blogger.com will use the Blogspot.com subdomain.

So, for those of you who are just starting blogging, it never hurts to try using this one blog service.

How to create a blog on Blogger.com

First of all, before creating a free blog, you must create a Google account. If you already have it, just open Blogger.com and log in using your Google account.


After logging in, you will be given two profile options that will be displayed.

The first option displays the Blogger profile, while the second option displays the Google Plus profile. My recommendation, just select the option that displays Google Plus profiles.

If you have previously created a Google Plus profile, you can go directly to Blogger.


On the next screen, click on “Create your blog” button again to launch your first blog.

Later the display will appear as shown below. This step has entered the stage of blogging.

Title

Write the name of the blog to your liking. Make a name as interesting as possible, not too long and easy when spoken or pronounced, so that visitors will easily remember your blog.

The maximum number of words recommended for blog names is two words.

For example, "Fashion Blog".

It's not pleasant to hear if your blog's name is like "The Latest Fashion Blog". The number is too long to be used in a blog name.

Address

Make an address according to the name of the blog. This aims to make visitors easily remember the blog.

For example, the name of your blog is "Fashion Blog" so it would be better if the blog address is made "fashionblog.blogspot [dot] com".

So visitors only need to remember the name "Fashion Blog" only when they want to access your blog.

Then, you also have to check the availability of the blog address. Make sure the address you wrote is still available or not used by others. If someone else has already used it, then you have to find a new address name.

Template

Blogger.com provides several blog views that can be used for free. Please choose a display that suits your taste.

After the three things above are complete, then click "Create Blog", and finish.

Your blog is now complete.

Understand menus on Blogger.com

After successfully creating a blog on Blogger.com, then you need to understand the functions of the menus on blogger.com.

This aims to make it easier for you to take care of the blog in the future.
