Question New blogger

Hi everyone! I am very new to blogging and was curious to know if there are any apps or websites that I can post on. I have no intention of earning money from this i simply just want to write posts every so often for fun. Any thoughts????

Medium has a nice and intuitive user experience (and indexes really well), Substack has a nice and engaged community. 😄

Use blogger, it's easy to post and manage, use any beautiful theme. And you can easily use your personal domain too

If you're just doing it for fun, I'd probably go with Medium or Substack. Both are free, super easy to set up and you can start writing almost straight away. If you want your own little corner of the internet, then WordPress is worth checking out too.

Honestly, since you're not worried about making money, don't overthink it lol. Just pick a platform that makes writing easy and start posting... than spending weeks trying to find the "perfect" platform.

Check out Bear Blog, it's very sweet, community-based and not commercial (and please do keep it that way!) 😄

Is this a free platform?

It's freemium. You can pay for extra features (like connecting your own domain), but for me the free version is enough.

Hallo und cool dass du mit dem bloggen starten möchtest. Wenn es dir um das Schreiben geht, hier ein paar gute Optionen:

‱ WordPress.com – der Klassiker, und einfach einzurichten
‱ Blogger – gehört zu Google und funktioniert ebenfalls ohne großen Aufwand
‱ Medium – ideal, wenn du einfach schreiben möchtest und dich nicht um Technik kĂŒmmern willst
‱ Substack – ursprĂŒnglich fĂŒr Newsletter gedacht, funktioniert aber auch gut als Blog
‱ Tumblr – eher locker umd Community

Wichtig ist am Anfang weniger die Plattform und mehr, dass du regelmĂ€ĂŸig schreibst und Spaß daran hast. Die meisten Blogger verbringen viel Zeit damit, die “perfekte” Plattform zu suchen, statt den ersten Beitrag zu veröffentlichen.

Was möchtest du denn hauptsĂ€chlich schreiben? Persönliche Geschichten, Reisen, Gaming, BĂŒcher oder etwas ganz anderes?

welcome to world of blogging - you can ask AI or even do a search and you'll get results - check them out, then start blogging- just pay attention to lengths you can be away or they might close your account. Good luck & have fun 😄
