Only im not sure where to start... There are so many, what do ye think is the best and where should i start? Any comments or advice will be very welcome! :D

There are so many blogs out there, Im assuming you want to do a beauty or fashion blog? Just start with what you know and what you want to write and post about. Try not to compare your blog too much to others bc you want yours to be original and from you. (if that makes any sense lol). Do you know what kind of blogging platform you want to use? There's blogger, wordpress, tumblr and a few others? If you have anymore questions I would be happy to answer them :)

Blogger.com is great, I use it for my blog and I let google advertise on it and I get paid for it!

Nikki, blogger is pretty good but right now im finding it fustrating as ive created several pages and all my blogs are showing on the home page and i want them ONLY on their seperate pages, and i here theirs no way to fix that..just fyi if you want to add pages.

wordpress is good but i couldnt figure it out, well i couldnt get it to load.

i suggest you make a blog, dont have to get too detailed on a few sites for a week or so then decided which one you like. theirs a place called http://www.thecutestblogontheblock.... where you can get cute graphics and html code for a background ( you can changed your blogger background if you ADD A GADGET and select ADD HTML code...then you copy paste a code you find into that box.... hope that helps.

Yeah I use adsense, just started using it so we'll see how it works and how much money you can make from it.

Go for it! I started a blog and I've not looked back since, I just love writing about what I love. The key is to do what YOU love, it'll make you stand out and ensure you're writing unique content.

In terms of the platform, I blog on Wordpress because Blogger's always been confusing. Wordpress gives you the stats and how they found your blog, themes, galleries etc. I
