How do I make my own blog? And which website do I use?

[waxingpoetic75]

I would have to say Wordpress is the way to go. You can go with either self-hosted or use Wordpress.com. I have several self-hosted Wordpress blogs, and you can use them for everything from websites to membership sites. You could set it up in such a way that only your friends, business team, etc would be the only ones able to access it. That way, your valuable ideas wouldn't be released to the public before you're ready.

Also, you refer to folders. Wordpress doesn't use folders to organize posts. It has a feature where you assign your post a Category.

For example, if you write a post that was an editorial essay, you would put it in your Editorial Essay category. If you write a post about a business model; likewise you would put it in your Business Models category.

Your categories then appear as links in the sidebar of your home page. Users can use these categories as one of a few ways to navigate your blog.

If you want to try this out without cost to make sure it's something you will maintain before you invest money in it. Use one of the following:

http://wordpress.com
http://blogger.com

If you're ready to jump in, Wordpress is a free open source application. You'll need a domain name and a hosting account. If you have questions, don't hesitate to add me as a contact. I'm not looking to sell you anything. I'm glad to help...no strings attached.
