Advertising on a food blog
-
I am thinking of starting a food,blog and would like to have the capability to advertise with google Adsense or blog her etc. I realize first I need to buy the domain and use WordPress.org. How much does it cost? Do you need to download the software first or sign up with you host server? Can you still use the regular app by doing all this? Thanks for any help!
