  • As a young tech editor myself and founder of TechXav, today I'll relate to you guys the main reasons why most students/kids/teenagers "shoo" away from professional blogging. I've started blogging since June last year as an amateur without any knowledge or experience about the social web such as Facebook and Twitter. Without any cash, I created a free Blogger hosted blog and wrote articles encircling around the social web. Once in a while, I would review web apps which I think are beneficial for tech users out there. A few months later, the number of daily visitors began to increase rapidly. All thanks to "Web Hosting Secrets Revealed", I've managed to sign up for a .com domain name and a premium web hosting plan.
