    Upon my observations I've seen many people prefer to use Wordpress as their platform for blogging. But want to understand how many of you take blogger as a serious platform for blogging. I would like hear from both blogger(blogspot) and wordpress bloggers their experience using these. Hoping for some really healthy conversation on this

    You want to manipulate Google's rankings, and get your blog right up there.

    So tell me.

    Do you REALLY think it's a good idea to try and do it using a platform owned by *Google*?

    Or are you really just rockbag dumb?

    Its totally a situational Debate topic. Means all you need to do is be clear about whats your requirement is? if you are not having any relation with business so you can go with word press or otherwise blogger may be the best option because it is quite user friendly and does not require any HTML or CSS techniques.

    Agree! Exactly I'm just trying to figure out, are there any serious people who use blogger for blogging. I found blogger to be more easy to manage than a wordpress one though many people prefer wordpress.

    @jack jastin
    However do you blog on blogger seriously?

    They're both pretty good blog softwares. But, wordpress seems to be the most popular among webmasters.

    Wordpress is definitely better for SEO and there are so many plugins for just about every function you want.

    Wordpress plugins automatically generate sitemaps. If you don't generate sitemaps on your Wordpress blog, you're shortchanging yourself!

    I prefer with Wordpress because there are lots of plugins you can use for your Wordpress blog to make your blog user friendly. and Google also like Wordpress blog. There are lots of Wordpress Premium and Free themes available online to make your blog decent.

    Bottom line, Blogger is very simple and easy to use. You get what you see. WordPress on the other hand has many different features and customizable options that can transform your blog into an actual "website" instead of just a regular old "blog".

    Hope this helps!

    Wordpress is best for seo. I personally use wordpress. If you want to get more traffic then go to wordpress and open an account for blog and try to do your desired things.
