Blogger is one of the earliest and most reliable free blogging platforms out there and  I recommend it to any new/beginner blogger who wants to create a simple personal platform or just get a feel of how blogging is like.
Creating a blog in  Blogger.com is very quick and easy and am so excited to give you a step-by-step walk-through. Any questions leave in the comment box and any area you want to touch

1. Sign in to Google Search

Go to Blogger.com and sign in with your Google account. A Google account is necessary, so you have to create one if you don't already have it.

After signing-in, click on the Get started button to begin setting up your blog.

2. Register your blog

Blog Title - Create a simple and unique title for your blog. Users typically use their name, blog name or brand name in this field. No need to waste a lot of time here because you can edit this later on, like when you have something better in mind.
Blog address (URL) - Blogger blogs are hosted by Google for free, under the domain blogspot.com. Enter your desired blog address here and as you finish typing it will show you whether the title can be used or you need to change it.. So be sure to choose a really cool name.



Don't be frightened if you have plans to buy a domain name. A blog address in blogspot is necessary to complete the registration. You may change it into your .com (or other) domain later on when you like

3. Pick a Template

Blogger provides free templates which are fully customizable.

Select your starter template from the list. To help you decide - look at the format of the text and images and see which one is best suited for your taste or style.
The colors, background images, fonts, sidebar widths, and a slew of other settings can be tweaked in Blogger's Template Designer later on. You can also upload Blogger templates from other sources into the system or meet a professional to do that for you which i recommend

4. Customize your blog

Congratulations! Your new blog is now set and  live!

You may go ahead and hit on the start blogging arrow to begin writing your very first blog post, or you can further explore additional settings for your blog.
GO to your template designer to change the looks of your blog when you like and also click on the layout to move your existing gadgets or add new gadgets.
Right now, the blog is up but there is nothing on it.

5. Write your first blog entry

Now you are very excited so go ahead and make a test post, i was too. From the dashboard, click on the big, orange New Post button.

Blog posts are entered a text editor  which is very user-friendly. You can add Images, videos and links
You may Save or Preview your blog entry first before hitting the Publish button.
