PS. Got a question? Here are a couple of the most frequently asked questions I get about starting a blog…
What is the cheapest way to start a blog?
With the special discount you receive for being a reader of JeffBullas.com you won't get a better deal than hosting your blog with Bluehost. The cost for an entire year is only $35 with a domain name included!
How do I pick a domain name?
This depends on what your blog is intended for. My first recommendation would be to go with "yourname.com" because it is great for branding and not limited by a topic as you adapt over time.
Should I just use a free blogging platform and then switch across when I'm making money?
Sure, this is an option. But in my experience it becomes very cumbersome and challenging to switch from a free blogging platform across to one you own once you are up and running. There are some very successful bloggers on platforms such as LinkedIn Publisher and Medium, for example, but they almost always regret not building their audience on a platform that they have complete control over. You won't get to control branding, and it will be much harder to monetize than a self-hosted blog.
I'm not technical, is a self-hosted blog still the way to go?
I can tell you right now, I didn't have a technical bone in my body when I started blogging. That was back in 2008, and I still managed to get a blog up and running using Bluehost and WordPress. These days, the support articles and 24/7 customer support from hosting services like Bluehost are 10x better than they were back then, so I'd be very surprised if you had any issues from a technical standpoint. WordPress is also an intuitive and easy-to-use platform. Bluehost have a 30-day money back guarantee if for whatever reason it doesn't work out, so you can be confident with your choice.
