Many of my readers are bloggers and have their blogs hosted at free blog sites like blogger, wordpress, and others. Free blog sites are great and server new bloggers very well. But for the experienced blogger who wants move features, control, design freedom, web hosting is the way to go.
Web hosting is very affordable, even the blogger with the smallest budget can host their own website or blog and have all the benefits of web hosting.
So why don’t more bloggers use web hosting to host their own blog when the benefits out weight the cost?
1. They think it cost too much money.
2. They think it is too difficult and requires advanced tech skills.
Like I said, web hosting is affordable; some large hosting companies have hosting plans that are less that $5 a month.
Hosting your own web site is a lot eaiser than one might think. Good web hosting websites have great instructions, web hosting tutorials , and online support.

Thanks for posting the advice. I have hosted several sites, but never thought
about using a paid host for my blogs. I have always been content with using
a free blogger site. I will look into getting a blog hosted on a paid one.
