The Business of Blogging, Part 2 (Sponsored Post)
We're asked from time to time about the business of blogging. Some time ago, we wrote about possible ways to make money from blogging, an important thing to think about if you are planning to devote time and energy to maintain a blog for anything other than purely personal reasons.
More recently, we were asked to evaluate different blogging services. Here at TheInsiderTravelGuides.com, we use http://www.Blogger.com (which is owned by Google) and have been happy with the ease of using their software, customizing the resulting pages to match the rest of our site, and incorporating the service into our daily routine. As an added bonus, the service is free -- an important consideration to a small, advertiser-supported site like ours.
You can find another free service for your Blogs at http://www.thoughts.com/. Billed as a way to "share your thoughts" (hence the name), Thoughts.com emphasizes the community aspects to uploading text, photos, videos, and podcasts, although they also allow you to make posts private or viewable only by individuals you've targeted as friends and family. This new site (now in Beta mode) also allows users to chat in community forums and bookmark the latest news. And by allowing free unlimited bandwidth and explicit content, Thoughts.com tries to ensure that there are no restrictions to your personal expressions.
