Creating your first blog

January 27, 2010 2:21 pm | 1 Comment

Some of my readers would like to know how they can create a blog.

First of all, opening a blog and updating it requires a lot of dedication. You need to have something to blog about, and sometimes you need to find something that inspires you in order to write a post (I mean, when running out of ideas or just looking for inspiration). So, the first piece of advice I can give you is: if you’d like to open a blog, you have to think about the use you wish to make of it.

Which is your goal? This might be the reason why you want to get a blog. For example, you’re a translator and you’d like to write a translation blog, so your posts might be about your life as a translator, words you found difficult to translate, books you read, resources you use, and so on.

I made my first video tutorial today! It’s in English, and its purpose is to guide you step by step through the creation on a blog hosted at Wordpress.com. You can get a blog there for free, and I highly recommend Wordpress even to first-time bloggers. You can watch my tutorial below.
