How to Make a Blog

Even if you are an engineer or a non coder, i will tell you the best way to make a blog. If you are an engineer, chances are less that you make this query. But even if you are, i would suggest you to opt for this way.

Follow the below steps to make a blog and earn money for free

1. Select the Blog Category

   This step of selecting the blog category is very important. It means that which content you will be putting in your blog. For example, you can create a blog like any popular fashion blogger.

   Whenever you select a blog topic, the revenue you generate through that blog depends on the Audience and the available advertisers. Take an example, that if you create a blog on social donation, there will be no / less advertisers that will spend money on ads of their work. So, the blog will be non profitable. You should chose a blog category where you have a interest too. Else you will never want to write the content.

   Here are the top 5 blogging categories for making a good blog with huge number of visitors.

   1. Technical Reviews
   2. Recipes
   3. Travel experiences
   4. Environment
   5. Health Tips

2. Choose the Platform for the Blog

   

   You can use the Content management system for making your blogs. There are many of such available platforms. But i recommend using wordpress. The WordPress alternative list include

   • Drupal
   • Blogger
   • Magento
   • Joomla
   • Shopify
   • Wix

   It is your choice to select a good platform for your blog. If you are literate and can think, i recommend wordpress but if you are completely new and are not much literate i recommend you to go for Wix. But opting for wordpress for blogs is recommended. Here are the reasons why i recommend wordpress:

   • WordPress is absolutely FREE (you only need a web host & domain name)
   • Many options to customise your website / blog. There are 5,000+ free & paid WordPress themes available to make your design look top-quality.
   • It offers 45,000+ free plugins to help your blog run more smoothly and efficiently. Even if you do not know coding, you can customise your blog.
   • Offers a online support where you can discuss with other community members.

3. Chose the Hosting and Domain Name

   

   When you have decided for the platform the next thing you have to get is a Web Hosting and a domain name for your blog. Here is the definition of Web hosting and domain name In sweet and simple words, The domain name is a computer (Server) where you keep all the files of your website and the domain name is the name mapped to your web hosting server to make it accessible using a web browser.

    

   I have a free method and a paid method for you guys. With the free one, your domain name will be associated along with the third party name. For example, if your domain name is techcheater and you buy it for free, your website address will be https://techcheater.com and if you want to get it for free, it will be Https://techcheater.wordpress.com

   Free Method to Buy the domain name and web hosting

   For free domain name, you can create your account at https://wordpress.com and proceed just like the below steps. But believe me guys, that is only recommended if you are having no money. Also do not think that lets start with a free one. If it is successful i will get a paid one. Trust me guys, you will succeed rarely with this thought process. Still it is your call.

   I recommend you to use the following service providers to get web hosting. If you buy the hosting from the below link, you will get the best discount for yourself.
   

   	Bluehost	A2 Hosting
   Discount Couppon	Embedded In the link itself	ZIP 51
   Link To Get the Discount	Click Here	Click Here
   Price	Starts from 3 $ Per Month	Starts from 3 $ Per Month

   Most of the new bloggers go for the cheap hosting / free hosting. Please do not do that. When you go there, you will realise and will definitely regret your decision. You will neither get support at the time of need. Suppose, your blog is live and at 12 pm your server goes down, then if you call your hosting provider and no body entertains you, think how bad your site performance goes then.

   Believe me friends, i am giving you the best hosting service advice to proceed. I can provide any name you can find on google and i will get commission to promote each and every one. But if i do, i am trying to achieve a temporary gain. But if you too start earning with your blog under my guidance, then definitely you will come back to read my articles. That will make me a big profit.
   Along with the web hosting, get the domain name as well. They will offer it for free of cost.

   Once you have the web hosting available, proceed to the next step
