Hi everyone,
I want to start blogging and need advice on the best low-cost or free platform. I already have my own domain, but I don’t have hosting with a database. What’s the cheapest way to get my blog up and running?
Thanks in advance!

Try Substack or Medium. Both are great options.
Hey, check out Penify. It’s a free platform where you can write your own blog posts.

Can I connect my custom domain? I’d like my blog to show up as www.blog.mydomain.com.
You could get shared web hosting from any hosting provider near you.

Would it be possible to link it to a subdomain then?

You’d still need hosting for that, right?

Not really. I use GitHub Pages for my website, but it doesn’t have database support.
Check out bearblog.dev. It’s lightweight and simple.
Netlify and Hugo are a free combo. Highly recommend it.
There are a few options like Medium, Blogger, and Substack.
WordPress is a solid choice. I’ve had my blog on it for over 5 years now.
