Which one would you prefer to use ? Why ?
I have 4 blogs in blogger.com. I feel it is easy to create a blog in blogger where everything is just drag and drop. Even the blog theme is selectable from the site and easily been downloaded from other website.
I have no experience in wordpress.com as i heard it is harder to create blog than blogger.
i use blogger blog only.
in wordpress,they keep ads on their free blogs .
I am using blogger for my blog. Its because they are user friendly. For a beginner like me, it will be of course good to use that. Lol.
Now, I prefer wordpress than blogger. I can modify the template and add plugin easily with wordpress.
You should try that.
Nick i would prefer wordpress than bloggers it because the google team unnecessarily deleting our blog without proper reason thats why i hate google.Quote:

I just signed up for a wordpress blog and I can honestly say that worpress is better. It's easier to navigate and set-up in a word press blog. Now, I'm sticking with wordpress.
I have no idea about wordpress. Is it necessary to host a blog in a separate domain if I make my blog with it? or it will easily be visible like blogger.com? Moreover, I never heard that google would delete any blog without the permission of the owner. If this will really happen, more users may move from blogger to wordpress, I think.
i prefer wordpress over blogger as wordpress is easy to use,easy to place advertising code ,very user friendly but blogger is not so friendly and some times google block some sites writing potential spamming.
I have started to create a blog in blogger as it seems very easy for me to create. I should now try for wordpress, as you all are praising about it.
It's not a matter if you use wordpress or blogger, as long as you violating the ules and have dangerous content, then your blog will be suspended by blogger or wordpress.Quote:

Since I use both, I think it better to use the blogger, since I'm newbie it more easily to design and setting it up.
I started to think that blogger accepting adult content, because when we tried to enter blogger with adult content, we can see a warning from bloggerQuote:

Using wordpress is FREE but for setting up a blog you another webhosting service I use blogger for my blogs. tried to setup wordpress blog once but failed because of some server problem..
.. actually wordpress is a blog platform. where you can customise and manage your blogs in more ways than blogger can do like
user registration
userlevels for access
flexible themes etc...
correct wordpress is more flexible than bloggers and if you change any code or if you do seo work in bloggers then the stupid google will send you a warning message that your blog is suspended due to scam activity and your blog is a potential scam blog.Quote:

Blogger is better for something that is free. Wordpress is better if you already have paid webhosting. They are both good in their own way.
no need to have paid host for WP.as long as you have a domain you can have WP your self.go to freehostia.Quote:

yes you are absolutely right i have experienced this problem actually when i made any wordpress theme so i need to test it in order to make it bug free, so i have made a free sub domain at freehostia but i found many times the site go down and more than 5 times my mysql database has deleted automatically without the knowledge of the hosting team.
Thanks.
How cum they delete your SQL database ??
actually they don't delete any database manually actually their server crashed in some time interval so lots of people lost their mysql database.Quote:

yeah, very correct but as the person said that the new member who wants to experience about blog and also the sites then better to use free hosting site then to buy own sites. I know one very good site which is very stable and provide 5GB of free space. SQL and all available but which is not free.
File uploading and domain is free. I started with the free 110mb.com and the now i am planning to have my own domain.

Tiger are you using 110mb.com for your website? what facilities they are providing?is it cpanel hosting or layered hosting?is there facility of easy backup and restore?
Thanks.
for me i am only using wordpress for my travel blog and i like their services..i have never tried blogger yet...
i have 2 blog, all in blogger, i more interest in blogger, because it supported by google, which related with adsense beside, it easy to use with lot of template
But wordpress has cooler templates. And there are few templates which are converted to blogger templates and also has lots of bugs on those templates. I like wordpress templates but for blogging i like blogger. :lol:Quote:

yeah i don't know the plug ins of this wordpress. does it mean that we don't have to use the html codes in wordpress because they have plug ins any ways.
if there is buttons to automatically add our links without html then it will be great.
