2.1 - What You Need To Know When Choosing Your Blog Provider

Before You Choose Your Weblog Software
In this part of the lesson, you will be given guidelines and tips on choosing a blog software/sytem. You will also be asked 5 important questions as follows: How do you plan to use your weblog? What are weblog features that you are looking for? What is your experience and/or interest in the technical aspect of blogging? Do you wish to have a built-in community with your weblog? How much money are you willing to spend on your weblog?

2.2 - Reviewing Popular Blog Systems

Read Web Log Software / Hosting Reviews
To help you with your blog system choice, I've prepared some reviews to let you know the advantages and disadvantages of using particular blog software. But, if you'd rather cut the process short, you might just want to check out my recommendations on the Top Free Blog Software/Hosts and/or Top Premium Blog Software/Hosts.

2.3 - Setting Up Your Weblog System

Weblog Installation Tutorials
Once you've decided on your blog software, you can simply go to the website of the provider and follow the instructions in setting it up. Or, you may also check out some blog installation tutorials that I've prepared for some blog systems. If you encounter any problems, make sure you check with the blog provider's support system. You may also post at the About Web Logs Forums if you need some help.
