Thread: Blogger Vs Wordpress

What do you think about Blogger and Wordpress ? lets talk about blogger and wordpress blog (without your own domain), that means your wordpress blog will be yoursitename.wordpress.com ))
Which one will you prefer ? and why ?
I prefer blogger because blogger can monetize but wordpress can't...

Wordpress.com has too many restrictions unlike Blogger.com. You can't use Ads or not supposed to earn money from it which is a big draw back. Also Blogger.com blogs get index faster. Also you can use your own domain with Blogger which is great advantage. So Blogger is better than Wordpress.com

so if we compare blogger Vs wordpress (own domain and separate hosting), lets share what is your choice. Mine is unarguably wordpress because it has more options and easy to work with + more plug-ins

Self hosted Wordpress script can't be beaten by anything else. It has everything you want and you can make even one whole portal site out of it. You can edit the code 100% so you have full control over your blog.

okay, any others to share the advantages and disadvantages ? me too believe that the best blogging platform as wordpress

Initially I used Blogger for blogging but later after few year I begin to use WordPress. Blogger has so many good features and also they're releasing many new feature in near future.

One great feature I like about blogger is their AdSense and Amazon integration. It so easy to make posts with all types of Amazon links. I wish there is a plugin like that for Wordpress too. Also since Last December they shows stats with the dashboard.

Not that Amazon tool Blogger has. I haven't found a good Wordpress plugin which works like that.

There is a WP plugin called JetPack that does this as well.

Definitely Blogger to use. Wordpress blogs have many limitations but Blogger provide a lot better opportunities to monetize your blog.

yea, its my choice and I asked what others' ? is there anything wrong ?

If you are talking free, non-hosted blogging platforms then I would go with Blogger.

#1 It's owned by Google
#2 You can monetize it
#3 Amazon integration

I header sometimes Blogger delete spam suspected blogs but in many case I didn't had this situation.

wordpress also delete that kinda blogs i think without a prior warning. Its in their rules and conditions.

In Wordpress.com they get less spam because they don't allow users to put their own Advertisements in their blogs.

less spam, but not useful. I don't like sites that we even cannot monetize. I heard that wordpress delete blogs suddenly, same as Google.

Yeah that's true. unless you want to run a profit free hobby site it's useless. But you can make smaller blogs which gives you backlinks to your main sites. I wonder they if allow doFollow links in posts.
