On other hand, Blogger is the self hosted blogging platform provided by Google Inc. Here you no need to buy hosting service to host your blog. You just need to buy a custom domain to make your blog more professional.
So, if you are new in blogging world and you don’t have so much technical knowledge about website editing then, the Blogger platform is the ideal for you.
Why Blogger is better than WordPress for a new blogger?
Yes, I think Blogger is the best platform to start your first blog because-
- No Investment Needed: Blogging is the most serious online profession today. But it is the fact that here is no guarantee of success. So, you shouldn’t wast your money by purchasing hosing service without confirming your success. WordPress needs hosting service (approximately one year hosting cost around $100) but Blogger itself is a free hosting service.
- No need much technical knowledge: You should have technical knowledge to maintain a WordPress blog from c panel. But Blogger makes it very simple. You can maintain a Blogger blog very easily from Blogger dashboard.
- Easy customization options: You can customize your Blogger blog very easily than a WordPress blog. But here are some barrier. You can’t customize everything in Blogger blog like WordPress. Still it is so effective.
- Perfect for AdSense: AdSense is the worlds best advertising network today. Blogger is also perfectly designed for AdSense. You can sign-up for AdSense directly from your Blogger blog’s earning tab and you can also place AdSense in your blog by using Blogger AdSense widget. Not only that- if you are using Google affiliate network to monetize your blog, then you can place perfect products in your post by using Google Affiliate tab under Post setting section.
- Easy custom domain setup: If you want to make your Blogger blog more professional, then you can setup a custom domain easily from Setting tab in dashboard.
- Easy Import – Export options: Once you realize that you need to have self hosting service, then you can easily export all of your Blogger blog contents to WordPress without losing any comments by using Blog Tools. You can also backup your all blogging data by downloading .xml file.
Some advanced options of Blogger:
Meta tags: You can setup your blogger blog’s search description from blogger meta tags section to inform your visitors that what your blog is all about.

So, if you are new in blogging world and want to be an establish blogger in the future, then you should start your blog using Blogger platform. After getting success you can easily move to other place.

No doubt that WordPress is best for personal blogging. But why you invest money as you don't know that you will be successful or not?
