Blogger

Blogger is a free blog-publishing service owned by Google that lets anyone build a personal or professional website in minutes. Launched in 1999 by Pyra Labs and acquired by Google in 2003, it remains one of the longest-running platforms of its kind. Users write posts through a simple editor, pick from a large library of templates, and publish either to a free subdomain or to a custom domain they already own. The service connects tightly with other Google products, so signing in with a Google account handles hosting, basic analytics, and ad placement through AdSense. Over the years it has powered millions of personal journals, hobby sites, and small business pages, and it still offers default SSL, a mobile app for posting on the go, and built-in comment and RSS features that keep running a blog approachable for first-time writers.
