WordPress. How does it weigh up against other Blogging hosts?

In actual fact , I’d say it has the edge on other hosting companies. Not only is it free , and remotely hosted , but you can incorperate it into a normal website too , giving you a much wider theme choice. If you don’t beleive this God of a statement , check out http://www.themes.wordpress.com.

Blogger-

Good Points:

  1. AdSense – Make a profit if you can legally go to prison
  2. RSS and Link feed – Instant notification of recent blog posts
  3. Google makes it easier to search similar content on other blogging sites

Bad Points

  1. Canot be used in a seperate website
  2. Few Stylish themes
  3. No extra stand-alone pages

Twitter-

Good Points ;

  1. easy to post
  2. Javascript Code – Paste into Html File , use in website
  3. Easy access to other twitter sites]]

Bad Points

  1. 140 word limit
  2. Too simple
  3. Can’t compete with other hosts

WordPress-

Good Points ;

  1. Stylish Themes
  2. Custom Pages
  3. Incorparative into a seperate website
  4. easy to use
  5. Very Customisable

Bad Points ;

  1. Very Limited Themes
  2. Take’s some getting used to
  3. Some features are hard to use
  4. some features hard to find

So , all in all , it’s kind of a matter of opinion. But , to be honest I think that wordpress is better , mainly because it’s a blog , but you can convert it into a website if you feel the need. If you have any other Blog Hosting sites , comment and I’ll check it out , and edit this post :)

Expect some more words of wisdom later this 24 hour period. I’m planning this to be daily , so I’ll make up for yesterday’s miss
