Blogspot vs custom domain which is better?

[ezennaemeka]

I have being using blogspot sometime now but no good results. Will you advice me to switch over to custom domain.

[creativeandinnovative]

There is nothing better than your own domain. It will be your brand name. If you want to switch to your own domain then do it carefully so that non of the link equity gets wasted. Ideal solution will be 301 but I'am not sure that it can be done with a blog spot domain.

[xiro25]

absolutely go with custom domain name. You will have more freedom to do what you want with the website.

If the site you are referring to is the one in your signature, why are you offering advice on being successful when you admit that you are having no success??

The reason you are not having any success yourself is because your content makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

[asher_gben]

off course you need own domain if want get better result in search engine

[iAmNameLess]

Like everyone else said, custom domain that you own.

That way you aren't at the mercy of a third party website!

[JSProjects]

Custom domain. Absolutely.

Don't waste time building a site that isn't in your control.

[tennisconnexion]

Custom domain is always better.Because you have full control of your domain.

Firstly, its Blogger and not Blogspot. Secondly, if your aiming for a "blog" then go for wordpress hosted domain blogging. Its the BEST! otherwize for websites you can switch over to "cms" for better efficiency..

Custom domain period

[unitedsolutions]

Just if Google thinks that they are going to shut down the blogging feature, all of them with the blogspot subdomain will be screwed. If you are using a custom domain, you can easily transfer your blog to another space. Without changing the LINK STRUCTURE.

Whaoh! Thanks all for your tips

[warrior rakib]

You should get a custom domain and still you can put it with blogger

[webhostingrvw]

one more vote for custom domain because your blogspots blog may be deleted any time. there is no guarantee.

Yes, go ahead with custom domain. There is no better alternative available for your own custom domain

[faysal969]

Custom domain is always better than any other.

For better performance you should use custom domain.

Custom domain probably better..but in my case I had success more on blogspot for now..

[rain21]

your own domain is the best, because you have the fully control and easy for SEO

[sonic74]

It is better to go with a custom domain....

but also you can have a great success with blogger !

The bad thing with a blogger blog is that they can delete your blog anytime.

In the other hand Jazbo have a point here....

you can't teach about how to be successful if you are not already successful

yourself !

So my advice is to write about a topic that you are passionate and know your stuff !

Can I know what you mean by "......no good results."? I can see that your blog is from 2010, yeah, but 6 posts? Think you should be working more on it. Then see you results, I have seen blogspot sites ranking high.

As of your question, definitely custom domain no questions asked.

[diyakapoor]

Having a custom domain is always a right decision. You will have complete control on your blog.

[jonnyhardbaked]

I agree with those who suggested custom domain, it would be much better if you have control over your site.
