Best Blogging services Review

Hi friends I am really sorry that I was out for a month and unable to update the blog, but I am very happy for the huge good responses I am getting daily about this blog. As in previous post I had discussed why Indians (every one) should blog. If you read that article and got the secret and known the benefits of blogging and wondering to start a blog right now or if you had just started a blog very recently than this post is for you.

I will not only tell you the most popular and best free blog hosting services but also review them in brief. Before I start listing them I would like to clear some points on which I will rate these blogging services. Following are the terms and their short description:

  • Scalability: It means if your blog becomes much popular than you must need good speed and server side power for your blog to run smoothly.
  • Migration: If you need to move your free blog to self hosted powerful blogging services like (WordPress) than your free started blogging service may be migrated easily without loosing any post.
  • Locality: Indians must see one thing before choosing their blog service, the locality (Language support).
  • User friendly: Blog service must be easier to use and customize it’s design.

Some other points that should be kept in mind is popularity, no forced ad and custom domain (yourdomain.com) options.

Now here is the popular hosted blogging services Indian’s should choose:

  1. Blogger.com : Best for hindi blogs, reliablity and is popular in india and abrod. Custom domain option easy to Use.
  2. WordPress.com: Free hosted blog service of worlds most popular self hosted blogging platform WordPress. Hindi support, many themes, easy to use, scalable, migration enabled.
  3. WordPress.org: Same features as at WordPress.com but self hosted ideal for big blogs like our. TechMitra is hosted by us and uses wordpress.
  4. TypePad: Premium and Free hosted blog service, this is free but scalable if needed.
  5. Blog.co.in: Indian Blogging Service multilingual, write in hindi and other language.

You are recommended by me to use only Blogger.com or WordPress.com never use non popular blogging services they can cheat you after your blog gets popular. One more thing Blogger.com only provides 1gb of storage for your blogger account and Picassa account. But WordPress.com is good in this. To add your blog in the list please comment below.
