Arabic weblogs service providers

There exist 4 major blog service providers that allow users to create blogs in Arabic Language.

  • The oldest Arabic provider for free blog services is called Jeeran. This service has a blogging community with more than 35000 blogs. It is considered to be the biggest blog service provider in the Arab world. Jeeran doesn't only support various features to attract new bloggers, but it enables subscribers to publish and share their photos with other users, gives a free disk space to create home pages and provides free e-mail services for communication.

  • One of the famous Arabic weblog service providers is called Maktoob. As far as I know, Maktoob has the second biggest collection of blogs from the whole Arab world. This collection is estimated to count more than 7000 blogs. the totality of blogs in Maktoob are in Arabic however it is very possible that some blogs could contain posts in English or French.
    This blog service is accessible at : http://www.maktoobblog.com
  • Blogger dot com is one of the oldest and famous blog service providers. Users might use this provider to create blog in Arabic without running in problems related to Arabic language encoding. Blogger dot com gives the possibility to store all posts in UTF-8 which is a universal type font that interprets Arabic font correctly. Moreover, Blogger dot com might be hosting more than 3000 Arabic blogs. Most of these blogs have posts in English, Arabic and French.
