Basic idea comes to our mind when we hear about a blog is 'collection of posts'. So many of us are having our own blogs. Few might not be knowing about the creation of a blog. But let us've a look at a the procedure of creating a simple blog using blogger and to a website.
1. Lets choose a site which provides free rights to create a blog under their own domain name.
Here i've mentioned few names of such sites.
www.blogger.com
www.wordpress.com
www.tumblr.com
2. Create your account in any of the above mentioned sites.
I would like to continue the further discussion of creating a blog in blogger.com.
You can choose any of the sites, but procedure will remain almost similar.
3. So here you create your blog. ex: www.blogname.blogspot.com
4. Now create your posts and pages as you wish to put in your blog.
( Difference between post and a page:
Posts in any blog will be handled and categorized automaticaly.
Pages have to be manually handled. )
5. In blogger you can use any of the templates which are built by them.
For better templates i recommend: www.btemplates.com
6. Usage of these templates in blogger is legal, if and only if you do not modify any contents of the footer
mentioned in the xml page of the template.
( to use external templates, goto templates --> Backup/restore --> choose xml file --> Upload. )
7. Modify the layout and template such that it looks like an awesome site.
( editing template: templates --> Edit HTML --> Proceed )
8. Convert the your site name from www.blogname.blogspot.com to www.blogname.co.cc
Visit co.cc and create an account for your site with same blog name. ( co.cc provides free domain )
Ex: www.blogname.co.cc
9. Then you have to setup your domain.
Goto setup-->Manage domain.
Choose Zone Records
Host = your domain name (www.blogname.co.cc)
Type = CNAME
Value = ghs.google.com
