I'm interested in creating a blog. I recently created one on blogger, and I plan to do reviews to start off, and maybe branch out into competitions at a later date if it works out. But I have never written a blog before, and don't know the best way to go about it. Please Help!!

Hey! I have been a blogger for a couple of years now. I am also on blogger and I started with a list full of ideas. NOTW, OOTD, FOTD, hauls, reviews, trends - what ever- and as a got more and more into it, I got better. my first blog post was a really informal how to make sogno de chocolate (on a beauty blog! ha!) with no pictures. if your not comfortable with taking pictures, make collages but I highly recommend at least trying to take your own pictures. you will get better and better. 3 tips: don't use flash, always use sunlight (put subject in front of window and take your picture with it facing the window without blocking the light) and always have it on macro mode I think it is. its the icon with the flower. and take like 20 pictures of the same thing. also, make sure your iso is on 80. the lower the better is all you need to know right now. for your first blog post, do whatever you want. its your blog! you can write about whatever you want to. join blog hops and start following other bloggers and comment on their blogs always leaving your url link. but never ask them to follow you. chances are they will click on your link if its there and your not shoving the whole "follow me!" thing down their throat. good luck girl! if you have any other questions I would be happy to try to answer them for you

It's cute and I love what you wrote, very heartfelt and honest - it definitely makes me want to keep checking for your posts!
How do you like wordpress versus blogger?

I prefer really. to me, it seems just as easy to use, but that may be since I was only on blogger for a short amount of time

I changed to wordpress as well, after seeing yours (I followed you by the way!) it's much easier to use and I think customizing your blog is easier than blogger too :)
