Building your website or blog for free

Searching the web you will find a a lot of ways to create your very own website. We have experimented with many of them and have some suggestions. Remember that is always idea to be able to have your own domain, and not a affiliate domain name. Google has stated that they intend to start de-listing affiliate sites. An affiliate site is something like www.jeffrogers.hubpages.com. while your name is in the domain name, you do not own it and it is very difficult to listed in the search engines. If you are just starting out, I would recommend getting a free blog, at one of many sites such as blogger.com, and then start creating your name there. Post to it weekly around your passions. It is very easy to create different looks, and you can even incorporate Googles Adsense into the mix.
