Very helpful article for beginners in blogging. I also started my blogging journey in blogger.com and now I shifted to wordpress. The blogger helped me a lot to learn on how to post an article and SEO settings and more. And I hope that after shifting to wordpress I made my news website beautiful and user friendly. So, anybody interested can visit my site Daily News Hunt
