Hello
I have a question. I have some sites and I want to improve their SEO. I am thinking to use blogger.com and I will explain the reasons and tell me if those reasons I think are true.
1) blogger.com is owned by Google so in my opinion that can help to the SEO of how they develop it. No coding errors and all those things.

I know that SEO it depends from a lot of things and not just if the developer created good the site or not.

My question is:
1)Let's say I am using "example.com" and I have 500 articles with blogger.com
or
2)I am using "example.com" with the same articles at another blog (wordpress , joomla , drupal)

I have everything same, content , articles...everything
Which one will have better ranking?

    Forget the idea that Blogger has magical SEO powers just because it's owned by Google, there's no advantage. If you want to rank a page, you're doing the same SEO regardless what CMS you use.

  • It doesn't matter Google owns it or not but the most important thing is that those tons of articles is unique, interesting, engaging, and provides great user experience then rankings will follow.
  • No benefit, I would prefer WordPress over Blogger if i had to choose free blogging site. For me, WordPress is more easy to use.
    What about blog.example.com ?

    • You're kidding right? WP is a blouted piece of crap that has made every
      Tom, Dick, and Harry think they can become webmasters.....

      Easier for what? Needing a bunch of nonsense plugins to do anything?
      Not being able to add things like adsense? Surely you jest....

      If blogger was so hard, it would not be one of the top 20 or so sites
      visited in the world...yup, higher than WP.

      Besides, blogspot comes SEO'd right out of the box exactly the way
      google intended it. You can't beat that.

      Everyone should have a blogspot blog as an adjunct to each website.

      Just like a FB, twitter, and YT account.

      In fact, one could make a tidy sum just with blogspot and YT.

      Big secret, I suppose.

  • No idea about joomla or drupal but I can rank 100 times better with self hosted Wordpress site than Blogger. The simple reason is I would have total control over wordpress.

    And don't trust Google too much, any suspicious activity and your blog will be removed.

    • If you're going to use the blog to link to sites you own, be careful. It's against Blogger's TOS to manipulate rankings in Google by linking to sites (so, your blog better have a powerful reason to exist besides SEO.

      Even then, if they think you're trying to pass link juice, they'll delete your blog. At least, if it's free.

  • I was also thinking like the OP.
    So I used many keywords to create sub-domains 23333333333.blogger.com, 2332222222222.blogspot.com
    But the traffic from there was very low compared to other sites hosted on a full domain. Thesame content hosted on Wordpress and a full Domain had a higher ranking and generated more traffic than that hosted with Blogger.
    So I will advice you continue developing your website, and can link it to Blogger, than developing it fullly on Blogger.
  • Yes.I agree with Kylie points,
    Google Owns blogger.com that not imply that it will improve ranking...

    The Core part is that You have unique,user engaging and meaningful contents because All Of us know that,In 2015,Content is King.
