You can get WordPress apps which work offline. https://apps.wordpress.comI was thinking the same,what is the best iPhone/ipad app,can you just use the app when no signal or abroad when data cost are high, then sync once a day,not sure how the apps work

@DBK has got it dead right.
I love reading of other people's travels, especially if they include photos.
Take an example from @Robert Clark and his postings. Lots of info and photos and easy to read.
While wordpress is okay it is on another site. I never remember to go look at these blogs as it simply slips my useless mind. Invariably the blogger forgets to post a reminder here or if they do it isn't every time they add to it so when you go to their blog you have to scroll to the last bit you read. In the end that gets tedious.
Stick with MHF you know it makes sense.

You will find facebook is banned in China for example and certainly Blogspot was treated the same as facebook. There were also problems in Uzbekistan , Turkmenistan and Mongolia

I think it's worth considering why you want to write a blog. If it is just to record your travels and photos then starting your own using WordPress or blogger etc will do fine. Quite a few folk do on here and they post from time to time telling folk they have just done an update and leave a link. However, I'm not sure how much interaction they get compared to just posting an account of your travels directly here on the forum. This is a great way to get comments and above all suggestions on what else to see in the area where you are and where to go next. However, a dedicated blog might be easier for non-motorhoming friends and relations to read your words of wisdom but most blogs I've seen have what I find is a confusing layout with the most recent entries at the top. It is possible to change this, at least in WordPress, but folk seldom do.
I just had a quick look at your blog and I see that you have exactly the problem that DBK and I mention in that you have to go all the way through it to get to the start. But at least you have a monthly list to one side.I would love to change mine around, I hate the way it is now, but don't really know where to start. I there something simple to follow somewhere. I am not a techie in any way plus just at present even the simplest of tasks seem hard

I'm not sure what you mean. When you log on you should be on the editing page, with options down the left, such as templates and layout. When you add a post, you need to click publish and then if you click view you should then be able to see your blog.I dont get it, i have just sorted out a blogger name from the link at the bottom of your blog page ( powered by blogger ) set it up, but when i logon it looks nothing like yours , were do i start ????
