Tips and tricks: How to start your own blog
Of Zen Computing wrote a very nice guide on how to start your own blog. The guide covers from paid blogging platform to self hosted blogging platform. So if you are new to blogging, the guide is good enough.
The act of blogging is quite simple: start a web site, publish content on that web site, and present it to the reader in reverse-chronological order. Your blogging software will take care of the “reverse-chronological†bit automatically, so all you really need to concern yourself with is thinking up what to publish.
Blogging software is any system that you use to manage the content on your blog. Blogging software organizes your content, archives, categories and files, and generates the code necessary to turn that content into a navigable web site that visitors can find, browse, and possibly interact with.
There are two main types of blogging software: blogging services hosted by the people and companies that operate them, and blogging software that you download and install on your own site. The rest of this article will cover a few of the most popular options for managing a blog.
