A blog is a website that regularly publishes content. Articles are ordered by publication date, so the most recent appears first. But why are we telling you this when you're on NeoTeo, one of the best blogs on the web!
There are several engines for creating a blog, the most common and professional being WordPress. But if you're a writer without the technical skills to set up a professional blog, we present You Don't Need WordPress, a tool that creates a blog by publishing Google Docs documents. This simple content manager integrates automatically with Google Drive, so you won't have to spend money on a web server because it uses Google Drive's hosting.
How to Set Up Your Blog
The first thing you need to do is create a Google account and link it to Google Drive. Then you'll create your blog on the platform, which some spell as “You Don't Need WordPres”, and associate your Gmail account. After completing the integration steps, you'll see the 'New Blog Post' option; click it and you can create content in Google Docs.
There you can use all the tools of Google Docs to enrich your text and add all kinds of multimedia content. For those who don't know Google Docs, its use is very similar to Microsoft Word.
Also, from You Don't Need WordPress you can edit your bio and add links to your main social networks (great for SEO). And of course, readers can comment on your articles and you, as administrator, can respond. When you publish your Google Docs article by clicking 'Publish', the platform generates a unique URL hosted on Google Drive.
Without a doubt, You Don't Need WordPress is a very good and simple option to create your blog without spending money on web hosting. You can find the platform's code on GitHub. There's nothing to lose by trying it and seeing if it fits your needs.
