If you’re one of those people who can’t get enough of your favorite bloggers, but are also sure that you would add valuable input to the blogging community, or that you could use a blog to add valuable income to your bank account, you may be wondering,” How do I start blogging?”

There are a few things you can do to stop asking “How do I start blogging?” and get your blogging career off to an impressive and profitable start. The first one is to decide where your blogging investment will be best spent. My advice is to use a free blog script, on a paid host.

There are excellent free blog scripts like WordPress, which has an amazing range of features, plug-ins, and tools and is getting more of them all the time. While you can use the WordPress script on the free WordPress site, any free web hosting site comes with the risk of having your blog removed for no good reason that you can think of.

A simple spam complaint will often be enough to cost you months of effort and you audience as well.

You can avoid that particular disaster by using your free blog script like WordPress to create your blog, and then finding an inexpensive web hosting service on which to install it. Your money is best spent on hosting services, so that you’ll know that your blog is safe from deletion. I stay away from http://blogger.com simply because it’s too easy for them to find a reason why your blog is no longer welcome.

WordPress even has a list of web hosting services on their website, so you can feel comfortable with your choice. I recommend that any web hosting service you choose offers C-panel installation with Fantastico capability, because it is far and away the quickest and easiest method of getting your blog up and running.

And you’ll naturally need to attend to registering your blog with a domain name, and the catch is that some domain registrars will lure you in with a very low registration fee, only to jack it up after an introductory period.

If you want to lock in a permanent domain registration fee and protect you blog’s profit potential even to that small extent, go with http://hwnic.com. They won’t ever charge you more for your domain registration than they do when you first sign up.

One of the most important steps in the answer to your question “How do I get started blogging?” is in picking the right domain name to register. You want your blog’s name to reflect whatever it is you are trying to say; and this is especially true if you are using your blog as a business and income generating tool.

I suggest you include the main topic or product on which your blog focuses in your domain name, because doing so will help optimize your search engine standings, and more importantly, will help anyone looking for what you are offering to find your blog.

So the answer to your question “How do I start blogging”, in short, is to use WordPress or another free blog script and to pay for your web hosting service, and to use a domain registrar like http://hwinc.com where you can permanently lock in your registration costs. Spend your money wisely, and good luck!
