Beginners Blogging Guide- 2: Choosing Blog Platform

Choosing Platform for blogging like selecting a notebook or Diary. You can write in both cases but they do differ slightly in features. As I said in Beginner’s Blogging guide – 1, I am going to consider whether Blogger or Wordpress.com? It all depends upon your requirements, Choose which system you feel most comfortable and what fits your needs or objectives. Well, I will make comparison easier for you by enlisting its features.

Blogger.com (aka Blogspot)

Who’s who: Blogger is a free service created by Pyra Labs in 1999 but was acquired by Google in 2003.

Features:

• Address:  The one you want, provided they have not chosen before. Put the suffix blogspot.com. For example: http://blogsolute.blogspot.com. You can also buy a domain name and address to the blog you’ve created on Blogger.
• Ability to store files: Only images and nothing else.
• Storage limit: 1GB of images (actually, the images are uploaded to Picasa free account, you get when you open an account with a Google service).
