Starting Blogging for Free

 
Blogging is a popular way to earn money, some people pay for webhosting sites, but there are ways to start your blog for free with a free webhosting.

Free Webhosting Sites

Blogger
Blogger is one of the most popular free webhosting sites in the world. The biggest perk about Blogger is their parent company, Google. With that being said, your login information for your other google accounts can be used for Blogger. In addition, you can use many other Google's features on your Blogger blog. First, it will be easier to put ads on your blog and easier to use Google Webmasters. Last but not least, users can easily add Blogger's features to their website. Users can purchase their own domain for $12.

WordPress
WordPress is another popular webhosting site in the world. The webhosting site has a free option, but also have upgraded packages that come with a fee. Another benefit of Wordpress is plugins. Bloggers can download plugins and avoid putting javascripts on their sites manually.

Wix
Wix is not as popular as WordPress and Blogger, but it is has a huge number of users. In addition to creating a regular blog, users can create an online store with Wix. According to Wix's, you do not need any tech skills, you can create your site on your own with their drag and drop feature. Wix aslo offers premium packages.

Weebly
Last but not least, Weebly, is another free option for you. Weebly is a good idea for people wanting to add a shopping cart on their blog. Users can also upgrade to a package plan as well.
 
In closing, I am living proof that you can start a blog with $0. In addition, bloggers can get free images from Pixabay. I hope you find a free webhosting site that fit your needs.
 
I do not blog on all the sites mentioned above. It is best to do further research.

Multiple Earning Sites is Important

If you dabble with earning sites, you know the importance of having multiple sources of income. For those of you that do not, it is important to have multiple sources of income.

1. Better Safe than Sorry
This mantra is probably the best phrase anyone can apply to earning sites. It is better to have something on standby if one earning closes down. Members are kick to the curb, and are left to find another earning site.

2. Just do It
If your earning site is going strong, you should still have multiple sources of income. Why not? After all, it is the internet.

3. Earnings Could Change
Many freelancers face this; earning sites change the payment system. If you have a few more earning site on standy by, you may be safe, and save yourself a headache.

4. You could get Scammed
If you earn online, there is a change, you may get scammed. If you participate in a few earning sites, you can fallback on the other sites.

In closing, it is safe to have multiple souces of income. Why not, increase your earning potential.

It is safe to say, that Google is a major player in the internet world. With that being said, the internet conglomerate owns a blog monetization service, allowing bloggers to earn money. Below, you will find a little bit of info about Google Adsense.

What is Google Adsense?
Google Adsense is a Cost Per Action (CPA). In other words, bloggers are paid when someone clicks on ad their blog. In addition, I saw something about Cost Per Mile (CPM) ads as well. With CPM advertisement, bloggers are paid after they have received a certain number of pageview. In most cases, it is 1,000 pageviews.

Strict
Any Google Adsense publisher will tell you, that Google Adsense has no nonsense policy. First, bloggers cannot click their own ads, cannot use pay per click advertisement, and must be go through an approval process.

Could be Lucrative
If you blog receive a large amount of traffic and clicks, you can earn a decent amount money from Google Adsense. In addition, the amount of money you earn per click varies, bloggers can earn 1 cent to $2, or even more per click.

Easier to Intergrate on Blogger
If you use Blogger (also owned by Google) as a your hosting site, it is easy to intergrate Adsense on your blog. All publishers have to do, is go to the layout tab, click on add option income and place the ads on their site. Bloggers can customize the ads as well.

Tax Form
Before, Google Adsense pay you, you will have to do a W-9 tax from. Furthermore, the blog monetization service is required to keep 28% of earnings for tax purposes.

Pay
Google Adsense only pays via check and bank transfer. Payments can are sent to publishers once they earn $100.
