hey everyone....

what is the big difference here?

I am trying to justify spending the money on xSite pro...but am trying to figure out what the advantage is over wordpress?

can you publish blog content with xSite ?

This may seem trivial...but i cannot wrap my mind around it....

Thanks
Sean

    If you want a blog use WP - that's what it is designed
    for. You can feed a blog into an XSP site or any HTML
    site. If you want a blog with comments I'm not sure if
    you can feed a comment system into XSP.

      Thanks...

      If using the free service by WP...do you not if the robot.txt restricts url access?

      I have several blogspot blogs and all of a sudden the robot.txt is restricting access to 95% of my url's and my page rank dropped.

        I don't have any experience with Xsite, but I do with Wordpress and overall, I just don't think you can beat the WP platform for ease of use and especially the amount of plugins and themes available. I make my sites to look like static sites but with blogging functionality. google loves WP as well. they are all ranking extremely well in search engines after just a short time. The Nokia phone site in my sig is only a week old and is #1 on Google for: nokia 5800 phone

        I just don't think that would have happened with an html static site so quickly.

          I know with blogger it is very easy to upload new template scripts and modify the modules...is this the same with WP?

          Also, who do you have hosting your site?

            I use different plugins for different sites depending on the functionality I want. Wordpress can do pretty much anything you want (within reason), so yes, everything is modifiable basically. It just keeps getting better and better.

            I use a couple different hosts but hostgator is my main one. That's another thing about WP...a couple of clicks and the latest version is installed for you. Then up load some themes, some plugins, build a few pages and you've got the beginnings of a nice site.

    I have not tried XsitePro but with WP you can do a lot of stuff as well, from blogs to magazines to static sites to sales pages to squeeze pages to galleries, etc...

      I do my sites with xsitepro and I havent come across any url access restriction problems.
      Usually by putting these two lines into the /robots.txt file on your server:

      User-agent: *
      Disallow: /

      it could work.
      Have a look at there website's features page, may be?

    I do wordpress and I bought XSitePro as well!

    You can use wordpress to build your website, but need to invest some plugins to make it SEO "onpage friendly".

    XSitePro allows you to build SEO focused website, you can easily create a very SEO friendly website that will rank well on Google!

    Either way, you are on the right track, just pick one and try to master it.
