description: How to create, and self host a blog like this
created: 2024-03-01

## Chose a static site generator
This is the tool that takes your [markdown](https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/) or other markup language,
and generates HTML files, these can then uploaded to a server to host.
- [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/)
- [Pelican](https://getpelican.com/)
- [My custom one](https://git.node5.net/blog/blog-generator/about/)
## Buy a domain
### Chose a TLD (Top Level Domain)
.net is pretty cool IMO
## Hosting
- Selfhost
- At home
- Requires static IP
- Router port forward
- Always having a machine online
- Exposes your home IP (This isn't super bad)
- VPS (cloud monthly payment)
- Not independent
For the rest of this I refer to the awesome guides at [landchad.net](https://landchad.net/)
