    I'm guessing you mean the free version of wordpress. If so I would say go for wordpress over blogger, it looks more professional than blogger.

    Blogger can work, but you need a LOT of them. And then you're talking splogs (spam blogs, for the uninitiated). And you have to make more of them everyday because Google keeps deleting them. Some say with the right software this Blogger splog stuff can work...but I dunno. Your call, dude. :)

    Wordpress for the win! Is more professional, easy to be customized / adapted. Blogger is just a newbie in front of wordpress.

    If you mean the free version of wordpress then go with blogger, you can place ads and earn there compared to the free version of wordpress blogs. But if you are talking about your own domain name and hosting, go with wordpress, it's a lot better.

    I've liked Blogger as a free hosted blog, but when you need more control, you really need to get wordpress, no questions asked. Wordpress is far better, and you can add tons of plugins/ themes comparing to Blogger.

    I agree with cool_78, free wordpress don't allow blog monetization, so blogger wins big time. use any free blogs that let you monetize, but not the free wordpress.org!

    if you are thinking about paid hosting, of course wordpress will be the way to go :)
