WordPress Vs Blogger



Quality

The quality of both blogging platforms are equal, however, if you need help or need to contact customer service, both Blogger and WordPress fail.
Again, Blogger and WordPress are both good platforms to choose whether you are starting out, or you are an experienced blogger.

User friendly

Changing the colors is easy thanks to the user friendly color and font converter tool in Blogger.
There are not many plug-ins available for Blogger, however many developers are coming up with easy to integrate widgets which can be added to the template.
Also, changing the template can be a challenge (unless you use a WordPress template) because many custom templates make changing color and arrangement difficult.
Many people disagree on this subject, but the truth is that Blogger is more user friendly then WordPress.
Many people dislike Blogger for different reasons, but Blogger has some great tools for beginner bloggers and expert bloggers alike.
You don't need to know much about HTML and CSS, but knowing basic coding will help you out when you need to customize the template.
WordPress has many plug-ins which are available to download to your blog, but each one takes a certain amount of knowledge to set up.

Interface

With easy to use color/font changer tools, and with an easy flash template rearrange tool, it makes it extremely easy for any beginner to set up a blog with Blogger.
Knowing what each section of your account interface is used for will help you understand how to navigate and change different aspects of your blog with ease.
However, with some learning and playing around with different tools within the WordPress user interface, you can begin to learn how to make your blog even better.

Options

As mentioned in the previous paragraphs, options for WordPress are easier to find and easier to install with basic coding knowledge.
Finding plug-ins for WordPress is super easy; there is a WordPress marketplace for plug-ins as well as many free downloadable plug-ins from other sites.
Many of these custom features for your Blogger account will be very valuable especially if you are using a custom template.
In order to add these custom features such as a 'read more' button or any flash widgets, you must know HTML and CSS.
Not as many options are available for Blogger, but there are a few basic options available for you to add to your Blogger blog.
For many free plug-ins just Google 'WordPress Plug-ins'.

For beginner or expert

You can create a basic blog with WordPress or Blogger, and make some basic customizations.
However, if you start to become more creative and if you want to have a more in-depth blog, using WordPress will make it more difficult for you.
Both Blogger and WordPress are as difficult as you want to make them.

Magnetization

Both Blogger and WordPress offer the same basic methods for making money from your blog.
But, Blogger allows you to embed AdSense on your blog, and WordPress does not.
Basic methods for magnetization include text affiliate links and banner ads.

 Over all

However, Blogger is all free, no matter what custom change you make; it is completely 100% free.
You cannot upload a custom template for free; you cannot make any custom changes for free.
Many people swear by WordPress, and many people swear by Blogger.
Blogger vs WordPress is a debate that will brew for many years.
