Common features included with free blog hosting
Free blog hosts are a dime a dozen, but not all are created equal. If you are a beginner, you should pick a free blog host that offers an easy-to-use Web-based editor and basic features. Some of the features you want to look for are templates and tools to manage the templates, archive management, a minimum of 25-50 MB for content storage and transfer, site management tools, image uploading, trackback and comments. You should also pick a blog host that has a reputation for providing good support to subscribers. Finally, placing your blog with a free blog host that has a well-established community will help you build readership if that is one of your goals.
