Its main advantage is the very fast and powerful visibility of your blog posts on the internet.
Let me explain what I mean by visibility on the internet. You may purchase a new domain or use a free blogging service. No matter it is free or not. But you will have a new URL (web site address) when you start a new blog. Free blogging services give the URLs as a sub-domain or a directory which doesn’t share the visibility with their own main sites. They give a free sub-domain and a site but it is fully new on the internet. Their new blogs can not share the advantage of the visibility power of their main domain/URLs. With those domains, you will have to wait a long time to see your blog posts on the search engine results. Story Sharing also gives you a new domain but it gets indexed by the search engines as fairly as the main domain: http://www.com-x2.com.
If nobody can find your blog posts easily on the internet, you can’t expect to be a popular writer or make money by writing. That is the most critical case if you think to write online by blogging. Get the best free blog with 80% Google Adsense revenue sharing at Story Sharing
