Need to find a good blogging site!

Okay guys, so I'm looking to start a blog solely to do with Chelsea, because I feel as if I have a lot to say about the subject, and I was wondering if anyone could think of some good blogging sites I can use to get started! Preferably one that's a relatively popular choice among regular bloggers!

And just to say in advance! Please don't just say twitter :P ... because on there you're restricted to 140 characters, and that's not essentially blogging in a sense!

Thanks in advance :)

In terms of a 'pure' blogging site, I prefer Wordpress over Blogger. It's less restrictive. Though if it's something casual like you're saying I'd co-sign KV's shout of Tumblr.

You wouldn't class a Chelsea blog as "pure" blogging then??

As in if you're committed to doing a proper blog, which you'd update most often & grow then I'd suggest something like WP. Tumblr is more user friendly, easy to catch followers too. With things like WP you have to develop a reputation and it's difficult in the initial stage to get subscribers.

I don't really plan to gain followers making the blog, if I could, that would be great, I'm more interested in linking the blog either on talkchelsea, or twitter, if possible!

Use http://wordpress.com/ mate, easy to set up and use. If you make it a success you can get hosting and buy your own domain.

The alternative would be to write for us. :P

I have to say, wordpress is impressing me so far... though I wouldn't go as far as buying my own domain, I'm not looking to invest in it in any way, I just want to link it to twitter really!

writing for TC would be interesting.. but hey.. I'm only just starting out! Let's not jump the bandwagon here :P

Wordpress > Blogger.

Set it up, I think your mind's made up ;)

I've found that there are two ways of setting an account up...

  • The .org way, where you have to assign yourself to a web host
  • The .com way where you can sign up for a free account... but I've found that ads will show on your blog if you don't register for the Premium version, which you gotta pay for!

I find the second point rather off-putting!

If I can't make up my mind, I might just have to use tumblr...

While mine's a .com and I've had no adverts yet.

We get it, advertisements are annoying!
Talk Chelsea relies on revenue to pay for hosting and upgrades. While we try to keep adverts as unobtrusive as possible, we need to run ad's to make sure we can stay online because over the years costs have become very high.

Could you please allow adverts on this website and help us by switching your ad blocker off.
