Up until May 1, 2010, Blogger allowed users to publish blogs on other hosts, via FTP. All such blogs had (or still have) to be moved to Google's own servers, with domains other than blogspot.com allowed via custom URLs. Unlike WordPress, Blogger allows its users to use their own domain free of charge, while Wordpress charges around $11 to use a custom domain. Blogger cannot be installed on a web server. One has to use DNS facilities to redirect a custom URL to a blogspot domain.
Blogger Pros
- Free
- Reliable (unlikely to be hacked, virtually no downtime)
- Easy-to-use for beginners
- Decent selection of templates
- Blogger Cons
- Limited features (especially comments and the post editor)
- You can easily lose your template customizations.
- No premium frameworks
- Google is free to use and distribute your content.
