When you’re a beginning blogger, you might be confused about which blogging platform to use. There are so many of them out on the market, you might become overwhelmed and confused. Never fear, this article will discuss two of the popular blogging platforms and the benefits of each.
Blogger is a free blog platform that is user friendly and easy to use. You can set up a blog and post within a matter of minutes. This factor is important for beginners because they can focus on creating content instead of fumbling around with their blogs for a long period of time. Also, if you choose Blogger, it is easier to get the domain of your choice (with the .blogspot.com extension attached).
The bad part of Blogger is once you become an advanced user, you will notice that there are not many customizable options and you will be limited to simple templates. Also, since your blog is hosted on their website, you will never “own” your blog and it can be deleted on a whim (if you abuse Blogger terms of service).
Word Press (WP) is another popular blogging platform. The majority of the people who use WP are experienced bloggers or have knowledge about html and css. There are many more features to Word Press than Blogger, but you will need to know more computer literate to use them. Word Press has many more template options and some templates some with search engine optimization already built into the template. Most people who use WP pay for hosting and domain names, but you can use WP free of charge.
To conclude, it is recommended that a beginning blogger should try the free blog Blogger platform first. If they like blogging and think they will stick with it, then they can purchase their own hosting and domain name and use Word Press.
