What do you think is the best blog hosting site?

Asked by IBERnineD (7324points) June 3rd, 2009

I just wanted opinions! I am going to start a blog and I wanted to make sure I was on a good host site! (I prefer a free site, but if there is one that trumps the rest that’s cheap I am ALL about it!)

My favorite blog host is newsvine. They have so many different services that you can do all your computer related work from there.

@YARNLADY Newsvine seems not to be a blog host but, rather, a social news aggregator.

Like @adreamofautumn I am a big fan of Tumblr. It, is, as far as I can tell, the most tweakable free site out there. Unlike some other alternatives, you are free to manipulate your css + html to enough of a degree that you should be able to get a design you are very happy with. It is extremely easy to post with, even more so with bookmarklets and it is very social so there is a lot of fresh growth going on. Check out these Tumblr themes where they will show you how to set up your own, sort of.

Wordpress

You have…

Blogger,
Wordpress,
Livejournal,
Tumblr.

They all seem equally good to me, except that one thing special about Blogger is that it is supported by Google’s AdSense.
