How much do I need to start up a blog?

[giddy]

I advise you don't start blog with your real money they are many free blog.
Several blogging platforms allow people to launch their blogs for free. You can register afree account (free blog) on WordPress or Blogger, but you should know a few things about free blogging sites before you get started: ... Your blog name will look like this: “blogname.wordpress.com” or “blogname.blogspot.com

I believe having a blog shouldn't cost much, am sure there should be some platforms that doesn't charge at all for you to be a blogger, you can develop yourself and has you make profit, you will want to make an upgrade,by then you should be ready to make some payment but not that costly

If you do not want to use the free blogs like Blogger.com then you need to have your own website. Pay for the domain name for your choice or provider like dot com or dot org or any other domain name provider. Next is find a hosting provider that will handle your website 24/7 on their server. In here the estimated cost for the domain name and hosting can be from 2,000 to 5,000 pesos ($40 to $100). Lastly you need a website design so you will also pay for that.

Starting a blog is actually not that expensive, a lot of popular bloggers you see today started their blog for free but today they're living large. Although at this modern age I won't advise you to start a free blog as the paid blog far outshines the free one when it comes to services and customer support, with $100 you could start a paid blog.

You don't really need money to start up a blog.... you can start up a free blog and write about the things you are passionate about.... As time goes on you can now get a paid blog and kick off from there.... I think that's the best thing to do

The two things you need to start off is a hosting plan and your domain name.
Domain cost about $4 approximately for the first year and hosting plan can be gotten for a minimum of $55-60 for the first year and subsequent can range from $90 to $99.
This plan comes with basic offers .It can be more if you need more benefits.

Starting up a personal blog is a great step towards the field of writing and making money from your site. Hence, I think it requires huge amount of money to set up. Please clarify my doubt, how much do I need to start?

You can start your blog for free, you don't pay to use WordPress free account though it comes with less quality stuffs at least you can manage that till you have enough to upgrade it
There is also blogger which is also free till you have money to purchase paid theme to make it look attractive. Good luck

you can start it for free, you pay nothing to use blogger, as it's a free google service, once you feel that you're getting professional, you can start with buying a paid domain and theme

Thanks @Patrik for the Enlightenment. Honestly speaking I never knew I could start up a blog for free. And I just got to know about blogger, I will ensure that I research more on it and try it out.

Depending upon your goals and the type of blog you want to start, your blog costs will be around $34.50 to $65.40 to start a blog in 2021 and cover your first year of expenses.

If you need to factor in buying a computer, phone or other hardware into your equation for how much it’ll cost to start a blog—then that can add anywhere from $200 to $2,600 in one-time purchases depending upon the brand of computer (Windows vs Apple) and features (MacBook vs MacBook Pro) you decide upon. Plus, there are a lot more variables to consider when calculating all of your blog costs.

There are numerous free blogging platform. However, if you want to make money from your blog, I auggeat you try with a custom domain and paid hosting. You can get free domain from some webhosts. You can start a blog for $30 with a dot com domain and shared hosting from namecheap.

Does running a blog requires money.I am asking this because I'm ignorant of it.
Have been nursing the idea of having a blog when school resume in my country to be discussing education online with interested students.

There are many sites that are allowing users to start blog for free and so you are able to follow that route if you want to get started quickly and easily. Alternatively what you can do is that you can pay for a site or a domain and then you can use your blog there. But I think that starting off with a free blog is probably the best option to use.

Thanks so much for sharing your own opinion on how to start up a blog. And beyond that you provided a way of starting out for free. Although I am hearing about blogger for the very first time, I promise to give it a try and see how things turns out. Thanks once again.

There are some ways for you to start wh the the fuore

You can start with just a phone. A simple camera will do the important is your contents and make sure it will catch viewers.

The two major things that is needed to become a blogger are passion for writing and patience. If you are passionate about writing articles and you are patient enough to nurture your site, then you will do well in the business. The money aspect of starting a blog is actually not a big deal, you can build your website/blog from scratch with next to nothing, or you can pay a professional to assist you with it for a token.

Of course WordPress is one of the best platforms that are easier to manage to publish your blogs. I have been using since last 2 years. It helps a lot to put newer themes, and to renew the previous published material. But buying a Domain And Hosting sometimes are not so easier to buy. As a student it was a huge investment from me.

 

[Justin]

I am also thinking about starting my blog. Based on my research, only investment you need is to register a domain and buy hosting, provided you are using wordpress. Price for domains vary according to extension you choose and hosting fees also vary according to hosts. However, the cost is under $30.

 

[Prettybabe]

If you're just trying to trying this blogging or writing for the first time, I'll suggest you use the free blog host... Like WordPress and the rest like it.

When you get started and have become quite good with it, then you can go ahead to buy a domain name and a hosting service for your blog.
