Whether you are running an online business, trying to sell a product or even just trying to earn some spare cash for next Christmas, blogging is one of the simplest and most effective ways to make money online.

When you are just starting out with blogging, I suggest that you use Blogspot at first. I personally use both Blogger/Blogspot and Wordpress for my blogs. Wordpress is great but not as easy to use as Blogger. My suggestion is to start out with Blogger, get a custom domain name and point it to your Blogger blog and when you have built up enough regular traffic transfer your blog over to Wordpress.

Why? Google loves Blogger, since it is owned by Google. When you are first starting out, it is incredibly hard to get your posts to the top of Google search. Eventually it gets easier but for the time being you should start out with Blogger because your posts are more likely to reach the top of Google.

I find that my Blogger blogs have much more traffic than my Wordpress blogs, without putting in any effort. My posts are automatically shared to Google+ which generates a lot of traffic.

So that is my little tip. However, different bloggers have different needs. You need to find whatever works for you.
