Free Blogs vs installed Blogs

6 replies
I've heard not to use a free one such as blogger because what if it mysteriously disappears, but why would that happen? blogger didn't like the competition? ok theres an option to publish the blog to your website into its own directory. what about that? could it still disappear?

It looks like most people go with word press, why?

what about Drupal?

    Most people tend to use Wordpress because of it's versatility. There are thousands of themes available and almost as many plugins which means you can do virtually anything with a wordpress blog / website.

      Personally I like wordpress because of all the plugins, but there are many people here using blogger and doing very well.

      As for the blogger blog disappearing...I'm not sure why that would happen unless you violated their TOS.

    Blogger will delete spam blogs and blogs that are against it's TOS basically. Drupal has a steep learning curve in general, but in comparison to Wordpress, it's not as easy to maneuver.

      WordPress supposedly gets more love from Google (source: that Niche Marketing on Crack guy). Also, there's an SEO advantage to having more control over your domain name. And yes, Drupal is a lot more complicated, and more of a website platform than a blogging one.

        Wordpress is much more user friendly and you can do everything you can with a website, plus having blog capabilities.

    Wordpress truly is popular and so you're going to find lots of neat themes and plugins available. I think is very easy to use overall.
