Top 5 Reasons Why Wordpress Rules The Blogosphere

Thanks for revisiting and subscribing.

As I have mentioned or you know,there are two main types of blogging platform software that you install and host yourself wheares the other is an online services that manage everything for you.They are referred as self-hosted platforms and hosted blog platform.Now I am going to list the top ten reasons why self-hosted wordpress rules the blogosphere.

  1. Free Of Charge-Although you need to pay for the domain name and hosting fees,Wordpress needs no payment to run it whereas services such as Type Pad or Expression Engine needs monthly charges.
  2. Research and Development-One of the features I am happy about Wordpress is the huge amount of  development and new updates updated by the developers of Wordpress.org.Although other blogging platforms also offers plugins but Wordpress.org/extend/plugins has over 3,673 plugins and over 17k  downloads at this time of writing.
  3. Easy setup-This depends on every person technical abilities but when you install wordpress self-hosted platforms,it is the easiets blogging software to install compared to the other blogging software.Besides that,most web hosting services offer one-click install such as Simple Script or Fantastico.
  4. Ownership and Branding-I could install the software to the server under my owned domain name with no sub-domain name structures. Like am on www.internetmarketeen.com which looks lot better than internetmarketeen.blogspot.com, and having something behind your desired name doesn’t look brandable. Wordpress proudly hands over the “Ownership” license to us, making us the sole owner of the blog. With blogger, you are under their ownership of Google and are just a blogger with no much branding to your blog plus  you will be banned for no reason if Google feel you are spamming.
  5. Ping multiple social and media sites-Hundreds of pinging services and blog directories with RSS accept all
    wordpress
    feeds and are pinged once and always when a post is published in the

    wordpress
    blog, and the pinging in their sites can be automated.
    The same isn’t there with

    blogger
    and very few blog directories accept feeds from

    blogger
    powered sites.
