By far the easiest way to get started is a hosted blogging platform. The most popular choices here are Blogger.com and Wordpress.com. Both of these services are free to use, and you can get started on your blog very easily, with a minimum of setup.
Darren Rowse writes about hosted solutions:
"This is the type of blog that many bloggers start out with, simply because they are easy and usually quite cheap (if not free). Probably the most popular of these systems is Blogger.com - but there are others like WordPress.com and MSN Spaces. TypePad also runs hosted blogs - although have the option to go with a type of standalone option also through remote hosting."
If you aren't sure about blogging and want to give it a try first, these are nice solutions that will provide you with plenty of options as to how your blog looks and displays your text. The big downside with these services - Typepad excluded, which is a paid service - is that you can't use your own domain name.
So, instead of having masternewmedia.org, for instance, if you were using blogger, your website address would read masternewmedia.blogspot.com. While this won't bother some people, and it is possible to hide, professional users might prefer to have their blog hosted at their own domain.
