I’m using blogger

Someone just unsubscribed because they are going to use blogger.

I do not see the connection but hey, that’s life.

Let’s look at blogger.com for a moment.

Google owns it not you.

Using blogger is okay if you want to test the waters and see if you can get a topic to take flight. But to build on long term is not a good idea.

WordPress or Blogger Which One Do You Use

I get many questions about which blog platform to use. What i do is wait until I see trends in the questions submitted then I pick the one asked the most and answer it… This is one of those questions.

So, Blogger or WordPress?

Let’s clarify something first: We are talking about two free blogging platforms that do not require you having your own hosting account.

Why use a free blogging service?

Before spending money on hosting and leaning all about hosting your own blog you may want to test out your blog on one of the above free blogging platforms.  It’s also a fast way to test out a topic and see if it hits a market nerve.

Best blogging software

Roy asked: “What is the best blogging software?”

Well I think it is WordPress hands down. It’s free, you can install it on any host, it can do some real incredible things using plugins and I could just keep going on and on about it.

However, if you’re just getting started, I strongly suggest using Blogger because it’s free and owned by Google. Search “Make Money Online” in Google and the number one spot is owned by a Blogger blog.This tells me, using Blogger works. Side note: The type of blogging software you use has little effect on search engine rankings.

Why I suggest blogger really is because just maybe, all this blogging / Internet marketing stuff turns out to not be a good fit for you. If it’s not for you, you’re not out of pocket going with Blogger. It’s a great way to get your feet wet cheaply.

If going with blogger works out meaning you like writing, the blog is getting traffic, you don’t mind working on getting back links, then you can always import all your blogger content into WordPress hosted on your own domain with a click of the mouse when you’re ready.
