Blogging on the Internet has recently become a very popular pastime. Few people dare to start writing for others on a personal blog that requires payment for domain and hosting, design, etc. depending on the functionality.
Popular blog services in Russia
The simplest solution is to start your blog on one of the popular platforms with a large community, so as not to be left without readers. All blogs provide the ability to publish text, graphics, video and audio content. They are well optimized to attract readers from search engines.
They all have advanced functionality. This can be the ability to customize blocks on your site, change the design, connect accounts from popular sites for data transfer, etc. Most of the services offer users a third-level domain, that is, primer.ya.ru, where instead of the word primer there can be any free one.
One of the most popular platforms among bloggers is Livejournal. The service began operating in 1999 and is owned by a Russian media company. For ease of use, you can add other people as friends to read their entries in your feed. Many famous personalities have their own page on this resource.
The second most important service for bloggers in Russia is Ya.ru. Here Yandex invites you to write on its pages and also add people as friends. Under the popularity system of you as a blogger, there is a fictional KP parameter. It shows your activity and popularity and adds social networking opportunities. There are a lot of groups of people with the same interests, so you can always find grateful readers, as well as pick up new information yourself.
Very often people start their blog on blogspot (blogger) or blog.ru. The first platform was acquired by Google, while the second site is privately owned. Due to the fact that they were one of the first to open, there are enough users here to remember them.
Where else can you start your blog for free
One of the most popular sites among microbloggers is Twitter. Here everyone can register for free and leave messages up to 140 characters. Through this service, it is very convenient to bring interested readers to your main blogs with articles. To do this, it is enough to publish a link with a short description.
The service Wordpress.com is very popular abroad, which runs on the free website building engine of the same name. People from all over the world post their articles here, including the Russian-speaking community.
Of course, there are many more lesser-known sites out there where you can start a blog.
