So if you're publishing family blog, this one might offer more of user-friendly options you need.

The one drawback to using free services always comes back to age-old saying, "You get what you pay for!"

These free blog services come with virtually zero customer support, so if you can't figure it out on your own, good luck finding anyone to assist you.

If you don't mind paying $5 a month, you can get a full- featured weblog at TypePad.com that offers a decent level of customer support.

The blogs available here offer many more features than Blogger or MSN, but also require you to understand a bit more about blogging's more advanced features like "trackback links" and "pinging" blog directories to let them know you've updated your blog (so others can come take a look at your new material).

Regardless of whether you choose free or paid option, using a hosted blogging solution rates best when getting started.

However, once your blog really starts to take off and you find you need more "bells and whistles," you may want to consider upgrading to a more sophisticated blogging solution.

Narelle Eldridge used to work for Telstra. Today, she has her own e-commerce business and makes more money in 1 month than she used to make in 1 year.

Wanting to find a profitable business working from home so she could be around for her 2 teenage children, Narelle spent over $3000 researching her options. She knew she wanted to work her own hours from home doing something that gave her satisfaction as well as financial freedom.

After starting a business based on one of options she researched, she realised quickly, it was never going to be something that she loved. So she was back to square one. Not one to give up easily, she then stumbled across an e-commerce business which she started part-time and now makes more money in 1 month than she used to earn in a whole year!

Narelle has a complete business ‘package’ that she teaches to others who also want to change their financial future and who are willing to work with her on developing their own successful home business. “The really great thing about my business now is not so much my own financial success and being able to live a dream life, it’s actually being able to help others to achieve their dreams. To work with people and see their lives changing for better has to be most amazing reward of all. I love what I do with a passion”. Narelle says.
