Diaper Swappers

So, I've decided to join the masses and start my own blog. Can anyone tell me where they registered their domain name and what software they chose to use? I was thinking about using fat cow and word press but there are so many to choose from! Help! Any other advice will be well appreciated too! Thanks so much.

I use Blogger, but they just changed it and I think I'd prefer Wordpress now. Idk if it'd be helpful to you, but I have some posts I've written about starting up your own blog and am going to be posting more about doing your own product reviews: http://lifemoresimply.blogspot.com/p...-writings.html Just scroll down to the "building a better blog" series. Good luck!

Good luck with your new blog.

I'm a new blogger too. Post your link when you are up and running or pm me with it. I love to read new blogs.

Also I use blogger. I was not well researched and had heard both good and bad. So far I like it. It is easy to use and I am not a very techie person so it meets my needs.
