This will lead to the question of having a reliable host provider and also making sure you have the right domain name (most essential part), we have an elaborate post that covers that already on How to choose a good domain name .This is suitable if you want to host the blog yourself on a suitable domain you must have purchase or instead you utilize the non-hosted that means you will have to share the server of the blog provider (which is not has bad has it sounds).

For instance we provide a non-hosted, given you the opportunity to be part of a blogging community and your post gets relevancy when it gets trending and enters our blog home page for most view or most liked if it gets a lot of Facebook Likes.
