Wordpress vs. Blogger

THIS is a 2010 year entry.

A couple of years ago, when i was active in blog reading and exchange links with my fellow bloggers, a lot of them use WORDPRESS and i find it envious because of the PAGES page they have. Blogger was then simple but freely customized in themes.

in WORDPRESS.COM,
Changing the theme into a CUSTOMIZED theme or changing the CSS from the default themes of wordpress will Cost you. When posting, though blogging is free, when you reached your limit for their allowable free storage, there is an option whether you will have a PAID blog or not to sustain the service and have no option but leave your blog, which is unfair. CSS, Javascript are not allowed either if you want to customize your menus. It is a pain in the ass but technically, their blog dashboard is exceptional. Everything is one click away and you will not have to worry about the malwares and hoax.

in WORDPRESS.ORG
You can have the customized theme but you have to have the host for your flavorful theme. Although there are a lot of free hostings, you can never tell how will it cause you trouble from lacking and being lock of your blogsite. You will have to push to look for a paid host. 

in BLOGGER
I just found out that Pages is now open for blogger users. Click here for the tutorial or simply go to LAYOUT section in settings and  customize your blog with CSS, HTML, Javascript. Everything is in your hand, you just lay your fingers and give it a freehand to get the best of themes install for you. Fortunately, Blogger has gone bigger and blogger friendly.
