OT: What's the best free blog host? - The Orange Mane

Natedogg · 08-05-2008, 02:58 PM

Looking to start a blog. (Actually was my new years resolution, lulz.)

Any advise on what is the best free site. Right now i am leaning towards Blogger (google's afil) but wanted to ask the mavens first.

I am not a good coder at all but want to improve, so bells and whistles are good.

thx!

What are you wanting to blog?

Don't use blogger/blogspot/google, they are having a big problem with people's blogs being locked out and labeled as spam blogs. Go with Wordpress

I don't know a ton about Blogger, but I've been using Wordpress from the start and am very, very, very happy with it.

Just from my experience, Wordpress has a lot more of the 'bells and whistles' and different layouts too. Most Blogger pages look very similar. More variety with WP.
