Is Typepad and Effective Blog?

tjxu97 · 05-31-2009, 06:58 PM

I have used Wordpress and hear a lot about Blogger, but what about Typepad? I need to create a blog for a business I work for and this program looks like it could be the right choice with a professional look.

Any feedback?

As a professional Wordpress and Typepad is much preferable rather than blogger.

You can use any one of them as per your need. TypePad is a useful tool and very simple to manage, Inexpensive, no software to download, install, update etc. I believe this is the best choice for most people as it is much easier to handle. WordPress on the other hand is a system designed for bloggers who need more grunt behind their blog. It’s highly adaptable and has so many options and features - especially through it’s available plugins.

So if you are going for a business blog and can handle WP well, then Wordpress will be the best choice for you else go for typepad as its much more easier to handle.

I saw where Typepad has "business" blogs, but they're like $90 a month. Are the normal blogs free and hosted for free just like Wordpress.com?

I've used WP.com, but haven't stepped into WP.org. How much of a step up is it to use the later?

Wordpress is the best according to me.

If you have worked with Wordpress stick to it. It should be simpler the second time around and you will be able to deliver an even better product.
