In January I'm launching a sideline to my already existing business and because it's a specific niche, I want to set up a blog to promote the new business through

As I'm a newbie to blogging, where or who is the best place to set one up?

    If you really want a great system, you've got to check out WordpressGoldmine.com . I'm a member myself, and have to say it's the best program I could possible recommend for a newbie. ( And to be honest, it's pretty good for people who know what they are doing too).

    The easiest way to get a good start is to have hosting that includes cpanel. Use this to do a quick Wordpress blog install (takes 30 seconds). Do a search for a nice theme and then think about what structure and content would effectively support your business and then spend some time adding that content.

    Things you may want to look into are:

    RSS - what this is, how to find your rss url of your blog and places to submit it.
    Social bookmarking - What this is, how to add this to your blog and how to bookmark your new pages.
    Widgets and plugins - these can easily be used to add a lot of functionality which you might find useful.

    All this is free and quick - just use Google to find out everything you need.
