Which free blogging service do you prefer and why?

Hi

Im curious of which free blogging service you use and why you may use a particular one.

I currently use blogger.com and will possibly be starting another couple of blogs, is there anything that has made you choose one free service for blogging over another?

I welcome any suggestions and views.

Thanks ladies and gents

 

Hi, I too use Blogger for my Blogs, but I have found another one I will be exploring soon. It's called Blog Explosion
Let me know what you think of it.
Cheers

 

tbfilly, thanks very much, il definately check it out and give it serious consideration.

Anymore suggestions people, keep them coming please.

 

I don't understand why anyone would use anything but Wordpress... That said, when it's hosted by them, it's nowhere near as functional.

 

Thanks Affers, im taking all views into consideration.

Im a brummie too, by the way.

 

Ah, nice to meet a fellow Brummie. Royal blue or claret & blue?

 

There are several other threads on this topics, just take some time to search and you'll find them.

 

I have to be honest and say that i dont follow football, i know it sounds soft, but i can definately understand peoples passion for it, ive watched snippits of the World Cup as its hard not to get caught up in that.

Who do you support Affers?

alfie1848 sorry, your right, il have a good look around on the forums and check the other threads out.

 

Just a suggestion

Personally, I prefer Blogger

 

I wouldn't have a problem if you didn't like football although I've always been told never to trust a man who doesn't go mental about a piece of leather flying into a net!

I support Birmingham City.

 

Hehe, ive known and worked with some die hard supporters of both teams, one bloke i worked with talked about football virtually all day, it was everything to him.

alfie1848 thanks, ive only used blogger so far but will definately try one of the others aswell out of curiosity.

 

I Use Only Blogger.

And Check My Profile in Blogger To check my blogs and my usage of blogger -

You won't find any die-hard Villa fans, they only come out when the sun is shining! He.he!

 

One of our neighbours was a Blues fan, he sadly passed away less than a year ago but his family managed to get his ashes scattered at the ground, if theres a heaven he will be smiling from it i bet.

 

Lovely story. I'd probably go that way too. They'll have to fly my ashes home first since I'm emigrating to Australia as soon as I can

 

Blogger is good if you're an absolute beginner. So is Wordpress that is hosted at wordpress.com. But I prefer downloading Wordpress (http://www.wordpress.org) because I like to make my own changes and customizations. There is a learning curve in the beginning but well worth it if you're going to have more than one blog. On top of that there are tons of plugins for WordPress.

 

Sounds good to me, thats one country id love to visit, the warmer weather alone has got to be worth it.

 

internetguy, il definately consider this seriously as you mention the added benefit of doing it that waywith Wordpress. Sounds interesting.

 

However, Blogger does give you much more control over the template than Wordpress

 

Ya i agree.

A Many Things can be changed in the template in Blogger

I think There are not much features in Wordpress
I once used Wordpress but i think Blogger is far better
