Best way to begin a Blog

[itsmegauri]

Pretty much everyone on BHW will tell you to use your own domain. Can't imagine where you would have seen posts that favour Blogger over having your own domain. If you build a successful site on Blogger, you still don't own it, so you can't sell it. With your own domain, you can earn through affiliate marketing, build up the value of the site, then sell it for a tidy profit.

The good thing is that you have reached out to the BHW community after just 5 posts on Blogger. Get some hosting and re-write your blog posts to make them unique, and get started on your own site. Best of luck to you

but google always favour blogspot over wordpress

Blogger isn't a good option, even if you make 100's of posts you shouldn't expect to make significant sales.

Must people when they found that blogger is owned by Google, they believe they'll be favored in google ranking, about 7 years ago that's what i thought.

Forget about ranking a blogspot on top 5 searches, if your blogspot is designed solely for the purpose of promoting affiliate products, your blog will be deleted fast.

Learn how to host wordpress on your private host, it's damn easy, every hosting provider i know offer one click wordpress install, so there is no technicalities involved.

After installing your wordpress you then head over to Youtube and watch a lot of videos regarding wordpress SEO and how rank blog posts in general, especially when it comes to selecting and using keywords.

And most importantly add very useful content to readers on your blog, when you do this even without backlinks you'll start receiving some traffic that could earn you some affiliate commissions as a beginner.

How long have you been here, OP? If you have been here long enough, you sure wouldn't be caught in between choosing a web 2.0 and your own domain.

indexing and ranking are two different things, i know that blogger will get indexed faster, but am not talking about using free wordpress either. am giving my opinion to OP, to host on a private domain and hosting.

Like everyone said, get your own domain, host it, and write unique contents. Install a few plugins like YOAST and WordFence. Make sure you write relevant and needed content. Invest in a few SEO tools when you can such as Ahrefs. Make sure you have your Google Analytics/Console linked to your site to monitor your site. Invest in Grammarly when possible. And once you've written enough unique contents, think about building some links/backlinks. I would build my site on paid Wordpress a million times over before Blogger. And spend some time soaking up the knowledge on BHW. Most of the answers you might be looking for are buried in the threads somewhere here.

To be an effective blogger, you first need to gain a lot of traffic related to your niche. You can either claim that you’re an expert in your niche such as blogging, webdesign or have a blog in that niche with loads of traffic.

For getting traffic, you first need to find what people in your niche are searching for. For example if you are in home improvement, you have to work around search queries like “How to clean your home” and similar queries.

Once you make a list of potential keywords, start producing content around these keywords.

From this point onward, you have to do link building in order to appear higher on Search Results.

with just usd 40 dollars you can start a blog with your own BRAND.
10 dollars for the domain and 30 dollars for the hosting (1 years). My suggestion is start small so you doesn't need to waste your money. You can scale up your blog later when your blog getting popular (maybe after 6 month).

hope you hit a big success!
