Free Is Not Free After All
The year is winding down fast and it’s been some good months since you took up that tempting free offer to start your blog/website. Naturally, you are totally loving the idea of having a space that finally allows you to say your piece. A medium to have your voice heard and you are busy plugging away for hours on end.

Have you had problems with WordPress free blogs? I haven’t, but then I’m not a prolific writer. I think your advice is valid for people looking to earn from their blogs, but for the average blogger who just wants to rant, share their love of something, or give blogging a try, WordPress free is just great. Many people can’t afford even a small blog hosting fee. Happy writing.
