Blogger or Wordpress?
-
Which one should i use to start my blog on my own domain name?
-
I've got to agree - use WordPress!
-
Use Wordpress, and wordpress.org, not just wordpress.com with your own domain name. With wordpress.org you'll own and host and control the content and can implement 301s and whatever else is needed. You have freedom and options you don't get when it's hosted elsewhere.
-
Agreed with the majority here. Wordpress. I have two blogs on there currently and think it's super simple with plenty of awesome plug-ins.

An alternative response, just for the hell of it - I have recently seen examples of Google giving a massive boost to blogspot
http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=curly+hair+images
I trawled through a number of hair related queries and there is a massive over representation of blogspot sites appearing high in image search
If your doing images, Id give it a try

ja - wordpress- so many and usefull plugins!
-
I'll add a vote for Wordpress. I love it.
-
+1 Wordpress.
-
Based on reputation and a limited amount of feedback, I would suggest using your own domain name.
Before making your decision, try Google: "Dont use blogger" and "Dont use wordpress".
Of course there are plenty of people who use each service and are quite happy. Since you are asking the question, you probably want to hear about a few negative experiences so you can make the right decisions.

I have used both and Wordpress is by far the best. Lots of great plug-ins. Very versatile and customizable. A little harder to install and customize but there are lots of capable people who can help you for a fee.
-
Wordpress - you can't beat it for most websites.

Health/Exercise/Fitness bloggers?
Hey Mozzers, I have a lot of blogs that deal with health/exercise/fitness and that niche and need to get content for them. I'm not looking for mass content that is crap. I'm looking for well thought out stuff. Any bloggers in that industry want to be guest authors and put up some posts on any of my sites? Trying to get good content and this seems like a good way. You can include a link back to you obviously. Please let me know if you are interested, I'm happy to get in touch and post your content on my sites. Thanks!
