Blogging is growing day by day and there are many platforms which allow people to blog without spending a penny. If you are passionate about blogging and want to start a blog for no charges, this post will help choose from the top free blog service providers.
I myself started on blogspot and afters years of learning and experimenting I started this blog on WordPress. Although my personal choice will always remain wordpress but for blogging enthusiasts the options are many. You can play around with each and in time you will be sure what to use and what you should not.
I hope this post will make few more people interested in blogging.
LiveJournal (LJ) is a virtual community where Internet users can keep a blog, journal or diary.

LiveJournal’s blogging features include those found in similar blogging sites (multiple authors, commenting, calendars, and polls). However, LiveJournal differentiates itself from other blogging sites by its WELL-like features of a self-contained community and some social networking features similar to other social networking sites.
