Remember Blogspot? For many of us, it was our first taste of putting something out on the internet. It’s the original free blogging platform, a place where countless hobbies and passions first found a voice. But in the modern world of premium hosting, custom domains, and complex SEO strategies, is it still relevant?
The common advice you’ll hear from marketing gurus is to steer clear. “It’s dead,” they say. “You can’t rank a free blog.”
But what if that’s not the whole story? What if there’s still some power left in Google’s own blogging platform?
I decided it’s time to stop guessing and start testing.
Announcing: The Blogspot SEO Experiment
I’ve just launched a brand-new blog with a single, clear mission: to see if it’s possible to rank a Blogspot site on Google and generate income from it, starting from absolute zero in late 2025.
No fancy tools, no expensive themes, no existing domain authority. Just pure, transparent effort documented for everyone to see.
This is a live case study where I’ll be the guinea pig. I’ll be sharing:
- My content strategy and posting schedule.
- The basic, free SEO techniques I’m using.
- Honest traffic reports from Google Analytics.
- Every success, every failure, and every lesson learned along the way.
Why Should You Care?
If you’ve ever thought about starting a blog or a simple website as a side hustle but were put off by the initial costs, this experiment is for you. It’s a zero-risk way for you to see what’s possible with a bit of time and effort, without spending a single dollar.
Follow the Journey in Real-Time
I’m not hiding anything here. The entire experiment is happening out in the open, and I invite you to follow along. Will it be a massive failure or a surprising success? Either way, we’re going to learn something valuable.
