I come across many people charging 100’s of dollars just to install a wordpress blog. And don’t know how much money they ask for optimizing & designing it.
Charging hundreds of dollar for designing looks fine as it involves time, idea, creativity at the best.
But for installing a wordpress blog maximum charge should be 5$. Yes! not a penny more.
I already offer free wordpress installation to users buying domains or other web services from my site www.wimesh.in
Ask me why this blog is on blogger and not in wordpress
Blogger.com is absolutely free and one can use custom domain. I always recommend first time users to try a free site like blogger. There’s a lot to understand on blogging. Don’t waste money on trial.
So I try whatever free service I find on web. I have a couple of autoblogs on wordpress working, earning enough to pay for MrSkin membership. This domain sushantgarg.com was lying with me for years. Created a blogger blog, and thats it.
Anyways if you are looking for someone to setup a wordpress blog. Give me a ping.
No charge for installation. Just one clause. ‘Do say hi when you meet me!’ :)
What I will do for free?
- Install wordpress on your server.
- Configure basic settings like your blog names, comment options.
- Add necessary plugins like Google analytics, Adsense, etc
- Help you understand how to post.
What will I do for 10$? Everything except designing icons, logos, backgrounds. I do arrange the themes for a better widget experience.
Free makes you friend, 10$ makes client cum friend. Your choice.

That's great Sushant, you are offering a great service. However, is it possible to have domain name free of cost in blogger.com without the ".blogspot.com"? Please checkout my blog at http:/binnyoinam.blogspot.com and suggest ways to improve as I am just starting out.
ReplyDeleteHi Binny,
ReplyDeleteYou have a beautiful baby and it's a great idea to post about her. The posts are touching. The blog looks neat and clean. Remove those headline on right bar. The site title "Princess Diaries" needs to be beautified. You can use cufon script to style it with any font you like.
I once came across a similar blog http://coleemmett.blogspot.in/ Check it out.
Regarding free domain. No site offers free .com,.in,.org domains. If they do, there's always a catch. You can get .tk or .co.cc or .cu.cc but they are not worth it.
Since you are in India. I would say adjust in your budget and get a .in domain.
First year is Rs.90/- From 2nd year around Rs.350/-
Gubi.in is available.
Don't hesitate to ask me if you need something customized.
