Why Choose Blogger (Blogspot) For This Case Study Instead Of Free WordPress?

Our main objective is to eventually monetize this free site. So instead of focusing on Easy setups, SEO plugins and ready made templates.

We mostly focused on which platform provides more Earning opportunities and flexibility. Taking into account the many earning restrictions most free hosting providers has; including WordPress.com.

Other important aspects we considered were: Uptime, bandwidth, disc space, security And so on. In fact here's a quick breakdown below:

Blogger (Blogspot) versus Free WordPress: Which Is Best?

Let's compare the two free hosting platforms side-by-side. To give you a bird's eyes view as to why we settled for Blogger from Google.

Pros:

1. Blogger vs WordPress are both free. However Blogger allows you to register a custom domain from any third party, while still allowing you to host it for free.

2. Meaning should you later decide to buy a domain. You will only pay for that and still avoid monthly hosting payments. Which in my opinion gives you a better chance to earn compared to WordPress. Who will automatically revert to paid hosting if you purchase a domain.

3. Blogger allows more earning opportunities than free WordPress. They allow Adsense, affiliate links, or personal products. While WordPress restricts Adsense, because they already advertise their Brand on your free Blog.

Blogger on Blogspot use the same datacenters as Google, because it's owned by them. Which gives it the same security levels AND also 99.9% uptime. While WordPress might offer good hosting for paid Bluehost accounts. But provides a washed out experience for free accounts, to springboard them into their paid alternatives.

Cons

1. WordPress is easier to setup, and modern looking free templates. While Blogger is more outdated on designs, requires HTML, CSS, and JavaScript knowledge. However you still learn ACTUAL designing skills that might benefit you later.

2. WordPress has many SEO plugins as apposed to Blogger that requires manual configurations or coding know-how. However Blogger Actually gives you real hands on experience, which you can use to your advantage in other online projects.

For instance; you might discover your passion for Web Design and use your site as a platform to teach others.

3. Blogger Is More Secure that WordPress, since it's more static and doesn't allow third party developers access for plugins that might be vulnerable. And we all know the more people involved in any project, makes the project more vulnerable to infiltration.

In Summary:

Yes I will show you with this case study. Instead of tell you, like many others commonly do. That it's highly possible to Earn money with a Free Blogger (Blogspot) or WordPress Blog? It all depends on how you execute Your plan.
