This week, I received several questions from “I’m going to start blogging real soon now” readers asking which blogging platform they should choose.
Should they go with freebies like Blogger and WordPress.com, or should they choose a paid option like TypePad, or should they buy their own domain name and install WordPress on it? Or should they…?
Here’s my answer.
Your blogging platform DOES NOT MATTER. Your blog does.
I’ve tried just about every platform available. Currently I use three: WordPress on my own domains primarily, but I also use free Blogger and paid TypePad.
Yes, some platforms have benefits over others. However, when you’re new to blogging, just start. You can always switch platforms later, when you have a real reason to, or you can start another blog on another platform, again when you have a real reason to do so.
When you have no blog, you’re completely in the dark as far as the benefits of a platform to your nascent blog. You don’t have any information, it’s all hypothetical, and you’re wasting time you could be spending on your blog.
So… close your eyes, choose a platform and start blogging.
