Blogging for a living is another way to earn money while writing. If you're new to writing on the Internet, you'll find there are hundreds of ways to get involved in some form or another using your writing skills and your life experiences to become successful on-line. What exactly is blogging? Blogging comes from the term "Web Log", which is literally to log something onto the web. Combine the two words and you get a blog. It was actually a twist of the words web log, from Peter Merholz who wrote "we blog" on his website. It caught on and they dropped the we and kept the blog. People who write or type a blog are usually expressing their opinion about a topic that is of interest to them and others.
When a person sets up a blog, they can quickly create one such as this blog site, with a domain that ends in a " ".com domain name such as "yourblog.blogspot".com. These are free and available to anybody. However, if you really want to show people that you are serious and in it for the long run, the best way to go is to set up your own domain name with a host company and go from there. There are many hosting services available including BLUEHOST.COM, the monthly fees start as low as $6.95 per month which is very reasonable.
The best way to start out your business as a blogger or webmaster is get a packaged deal.

is where to host your storefront. Your websites. Don't
take this decision lightly. Your domain name and your
