Recognize that fin? That's the Soviet Space shuttle

Ahhh, people posting such quality stuff on other peoples websites always makes me cry internally. Please learn how to make a website all by yourself. It is rediculously easy to learn! People are usually afraid of "coding" but it is really much easier than that.

It's like MS Word just instead of pressing Enter you write <br/> and to make a paragraph you surround your text with <p>text</p> and to add images you don't drag an drop but write <img src="http://i.imgur/source.png"/> That's it. Yes you can do advanced stuff with "PHP" and "Javascript" but it is completely optional. You can build a great website entirely with HTML/CSS where CSS just stands for the visual properties you set up on your website like the background, the font and so on.

Now, what are the benefits of building you own website? You are independent from other parties! You don't need to fear to lose all your fans just because a site decides to stop its service. Additionally if your audience and the traffic of your site grows you can start making a little extra buck so you can spend more time making such awesome posts. More time means they get better (or more frequent) and you get more fans faster. I hope you get the idea. It grows exponentially and since you'd do it for free anyways you aren't in a hurry either.

Right now you think you "work" for fun and for free but in fact you work for somebody else without even seeing a daim. All those sites you can blog on do in my opinion take advantage of people underestimating themselves and overestimating the effort it would take to make it on their own.

In case you fear cost: A .com domain costs 9$ a year (much less for stuff like .xyz) and webspace is available for free these days. You can simply host your website using dropbox! Just link your domain to the main page in your public folder.

Sorry for that lengthy post but I felt to tell you this :)
