I shifted to WordPress Self-hosted platform years back and still love to explore it for better and optimized blogging. I have learnt a lot during the past few years and changed many strategies and products like Free WordPress themes to Premium WordPress themes, Cheap Web hosting to Top Web Hosting and better TLD selection.
Blogging needs adoption of new strategies and making suitable changes from time to time in the plans and most importantly understanding your goal and identification of your targets. There will be people out there who won’t agree to spend dollars on domain and hosting to make a professional start. But think it for yourself, if you do not want to spend money, then how can you expect something good.
Launching blogs always look amazing and new bloggers feel excited while launching their blogs. They will have to understand that consistency and self belief are the two big pillars of Blogging. Blog launching and spending money on professional start-up are not just the two major requirements for becoming a successful blogger. It is also considered to be a good start. Make sure you understand the basics of professional blogging right from the very start.
Blogger vs WordPress
Most of the bloggers knows both WordPress and Blogger and have to decide to go for the either one to launch their blog. I use WordPress but before moving I used to use Blogger platform. Blogger is a Google owned free blogging platform.
I moved to WordPress Self-hosted Blog in 2009. As I have mentioned many a times that I remained an unprofessional blogger till 2010 and therefore have never turned to a professional blogger before 2010.
Starting up with the Blogger platform proved to be a very good experience. As an amateur back then, I did not know much about blogging and Content Management Systems. But whatever it was, I never tried to copy someone’s content even while writing about entrepreneurship, small businesses and strategies.
WordPress proves to be a much better solution for me. I find it useful and amazing on various levels.
