Best blog serivce?

I was wondering which blog service was the best and if anyone reccommended any inparticular!

 

A lot of people use Blogspot.com

 

i use blogspot for thehockeyherold.com. but i am having trouble changing the template so i can put some ads on the left and they keep that annoying thing on the top of my site. anyone else use it?

 

Edit the HTML

 

wordpress.com

 

is it possible to transfer all my info from blogger to wordpress?

 

yes i think there is a plugin for this .

in my wordpress (hosted by me) i can see the option Import :

RSS Import posts from an RSS feed
Movable Type and Typepad Imports posts and comments from your Movable Type or Typepad blog
LiveJournal Import posts from LiveJournal
Textpattern Import posts from a Textpattern Blog
Old Blogger Import posts and comments from your Old Blogger account
Greymatter Import posts and comments from your Greymatter blog
Dotclear Import posts from a Dotclear Blog

 

There are migration scripts out there. I just went through a migration from my old blogger site to a hosted solution using Wordpress.

Are you on old Blogger or new Blogger?

 

http://www.blogurple.com is pretty good if you like wordpress. They have a lot of free plugins and they do not put any ads on your blog.

 

im on new blogger. currently i dont host the site myself. i do however have the option but i choose the just link the domain to my blogspot domain. so whats the best was to get all my content from new blogger to wordpress?

 

my vote goes to blogger.com too but you are on wrong forum you must ask this on content management or blogging forums

 

1. create a wordpress blog (wordpress.com or host your own)
2. go to admin area --> manage --> import --> blogger

 

There's a big difference between free-hosted Wordpress (wordpress.com) and self-hosted Wordpress (wordpress.org).

The free-hosted service do not allow much template modifications, and neither do they allow ads on their blogs.

If you are not willing to pay for hosting, then Blogspot is a good choice - it even integrates Adsense in their control panel.

However, self-hosted Wordpress is the way to go if you are in it for the long term. It just offers so much more customisation possibilities.

 

Wordpress.org is the best - get some cheap hosting and you'll notice and ENJOY the benefits.

 

Blogspot is best for me, have great features and friendly use.

 

Wordpress v Blogspot haha! Fight! Fight! Fight!

 

If you're really serious about blogging try to buy a domain and a host and install a wordpress on it.

 

lol i prefer blogspot rather than wordpress as an free service.

 

wordpress is free!! hosting and domain will cost you a few $$, not too much!

am planning to get a wordpress blog myself, just the domain name search is going on right now

 

Well Blogspot.com is best because it is a part of Google means Adsense supportive.
