Wordpress is easier to set up. There is lots of free and premium themes are available for wordpress. Number of plugins are available to customize wordpress theme and template according to requirements.
Wordpress all the way. It is a better platform and with the Plugins available for it it is much easier to index for SEO
I prefer wordpress. It has all sort of funny functions that you don't find elsewhere, like designated posting.
i would suggest blogger for easy to use (user friendly), however if you consider SEO (it's hard to do it on blogger). =)
For my view Blogger is better for new users its free and simple but if you want to grow and take your blog to next level you can use wordpress. You always have the option to transform your blogger blog to wordpress blog or wordpress blog to blogger. There are many succesful site such as labnol.com which started from blogger but transformed the site to wordpress
wordpress is better. use wordpress if you want to make money blogging. wordpress supported with plugins.
I prefer blogger over wordpress....blogger is very easy to handle and customize.....wordpress has too many features....It's confusing.....
In my opinion, though Blogger is a product of Google, but the engine is more friendly with the Google search engine is wordpress. Also very easy development and Personalization.
i choose wordpress but blogger are add some more features today and i think they add more function in near future
Blogger : HOst free, Get chance to increase PR ( i see it on my blogspot, i dont write more but it has PR1, i dont know why) Wordpress : You can develope more plugins. However, i like wordpress.
I think you should go with Blogger because if you want to earn by blogging so the Blogger is best because wordpress does not support html on his widgets. Thanks!
