Overview
lightBlog is a Weblog (sometimes called a blog or an on-line diary) hosting service that has been developed with the needs of advanced bloggers in mind. Basic, at $35 per year, provides a strong foundation for a stand-alone weblog or framed-integration into another site, with enough customization to allow you to make a truly unique Weblog that fits with your style or main web home. Remote adds the capability of allowing you to post your text and images via email, creating wonderful possibilities for travelers and mobile-phone users.

Some Features of lightBlog

The core module is lightBlog Basic, which provides:
  • Easy-to-use Web interface for adding, editing, and deleting journal entries
  • Create post-dated entries
  • Attach photos to entries (which are uploaded to the server, not merely linked to a second site)
  • Control title and directory (URL) of weblog
  • Theme manager allows for user-specified color scheme and layout for simple layouts or framed systems
  • Add an HTML header and footer for limitless layout control
  • Archival feature for backup "zip" files
  • No posting limits*
  • Listing, if desired, in our directory of lightBlog weblogs
  • Access to Member Forum for community, support and announcements
  • One month free trial period with full features and no obligation
* lightBlog reserves the right to impose transfer limits on an account should that account utilize excessive bandwidth

lightBlog first and foremost has been designed to be simple to use. A journal can be established and configured in as little as 30 minutes, with posts only taking a few clicks to add, or even less when using the Remote option. lightBlog provides the ability to include a table of contents, will order your posts by date and time, and can have multiple entries per day and per page and a host of other customizations.

lightBlog Remote allows you to create a moblog, and provides the added capability of posting to your Weblog via e-mail, including photos, which is ideal for adding short posts with an image from an image-enabled mobile phone, low-bandwidth satellite phone submissions, or using a mobile or sat device to enable previously loaded messages. With Remote, you can fully manage your blog by not only adding, but editing and deleting messages as well.

Membership Costs
lightBlog is a membership-based system because we only want to be responsible to our members and their audience, not advertisers. As such, we do not force any ads on member pages, nor will the site employ popups or popunder ads. This allows us to stay focused on making sure we provide the best possible service to our members, and not worry if our ad revenue can keep the site active. We also know that anything free is worth what you pay for it.

All memberships are available with a one-month Free Trial, with the membership being billed after the free month. The free trial period should give you enough time to try the service to see if it will work for you and your project.

lightBlog Basic - $35 / year after free trial
