Creating a blog site: How to create a free blog site?

You may know that Google BlogSpot is the easiest platform to create a blog for one's personal or business work. A blog can be created using BlogSpot very easily without any coding knowledge.

Since it is a Google company, you can continue blogging without any hesitation. If you are new to blogging then definitely start blogging by creating a blog with Google BlogSpot.

There are many types of online based Google products that cannot be used from all countries even if desired. That is, Google never opens all their products to all countries. Even Google has many products that cannot be bought from different countries for money.

Google BlogSpot is a product that Google has opened for all countries. Google BlogSpot is directly connected to Google's servers so there is no need to worry about any service related errors.

Introduction to Blogger Settings Part-1

We will discuss the two options that you can see marked by red symbols in the above image.

01. Introduction to Blogger Basic Settings

Basic – There are 3 more options under this as well. You can enter the name of your blog in the Title, a short description about the blog in the Description and you don't have to do anything in the Privacy option. Because it is set by default. So you don't have to do anything in this option.
Publishing - There is only 1 option under it. You can change your blog address from Blog Address. Moreover, if you want to use your own domain i.e. custom domain, then you can set it by clicking on Setup a 3rd Party URL for Your Blog.
Permissions - There are 2 more options under this as well. Under Blog Authors, click on the Add Authors option and you can choose the author of your blog if you want. This is called Guest Blogging. If you click on Send with the e-mail ID of the person you want to make the author of the blog, the request to make the author will go away. If he accepts your request, he can also write articles on your blog. However, he will not get permission to change any settings of your blog or he will not be able to do it.
Blog Readers - This is Public by default. So it doesn't have to change anything. But here also you will get two more options. You can make your blog private if you want. This way the blog will be visible to you and no one else.

02. About Blogger Posts and Comments Settings

Posts – There are 3 more options under this too. Enter the number of posts you want to show on the home page of the blog in the Show at most box.
Post Template - Different Css styles are used here to customize different posts. I will discuss this in detail in a later post.
Image Light Box - By clicking on the image of your post, the image will appear as a light box. It is normally selected as Yes. If it is set to No, after clicking on the image, you will need to click on the back button of the browser to return to the post.
Comments - There are 6 more options under this as well. Comment Location is usually embedded. There are several options here as well which you will understand by yourself. Who Can Comment Select it as you like. Select the Comment Moderation option as per your choice. But if you set it to Always, you will have to approve the comments again and again. After that give Show word verification and Show Backlinks according to your choice. Finally you will get a box instead of Comment Form Message. Here you can write your blog's comment policy or rules.

Introduction to Blogger Settings Part-2

Here we will discuss the 2nd part of Settings i.e. Mobile and Email and Language and Formatting two options.

We will now discuss the two options that you can see marked by the red symbol in the above image.

01. Blogger Mobile and Email Contact

Mobile - If you want to post blog through mobile then you can activate the option by clicking here. We will discuss this in detail later.
Email – There are 3 more options under this. If you want to post through Email, then you can turn on the Posting using Email option. Enter your email address in place of Comment Notification Email. Google will give you all kinds of notifications in this email. Enter the email in the Email to Post option only when you turn on the Posting using Email option. Otherwise it won't work.

02. Introduction to Blogger Language and Formatting

Language - Here it is better to keep English in the first option. But you can choose as you like. Enable Transliteration means the language you want to be translated into.
Formatting - Not much to say here. If you are located in Bangladesh, the options should be as shown in the image above. If you are staying in any other country then you will set the time according to the Time Zone of that country.

Introduction to Blogger Settings Part-3

Now we will discuss about the two options that you can see marked by the red symbol in the above image. Among these two options, the Other option is not so important, but the Search Preference option plays a very important role in search engine optimization.

01. Blogger Search Preference Introduction

Meta Tags - Here you enter a short description within 150 characters corresponding to the subject matter of your blog. Search engines will get an idea about the topic of your blog through these keywords.
Errors and Redirections - There are two more options under this. You can create a custom page instead of Custom Page Not Found. As a result, if someone enters a wrong link on your blog, you can provide them with some directions. This is called a 404 error page. With Custom Redirects option you can redirect from one link to another link. This type of link is usually used when a link is out of date.
Crawlers and Indexing- Options in Crawlers and Indexing are two very important for search engine optimization. You will see a message above the two options that if you set any of these incorrectly, the search engine may ignore your blog. So it is important to know these two options well before starting them.

02. Blogger Other Options Introduction

Blog Tools - From here you can take blog delete, custom blog import and blog backup.
Site Feed - Not much to do here. If you want to redirect your blogger feed to Feedburner, then you can use this option.
The rest of the options are not that important. But here you can use Google Analytics option. We will discuss this in detail later.

Introduction to various parts of Blogger

Pages - This section is just like the Posts option. Here are the various cleanup about blogs in general. For example - about your blog, about yourself, blog policy, contact page, etc. type pages are created.
