Blogger v/s Wordpress

Posted by sparkz9 in General, ... | 03.10.2008 - 12:59 pm

Before getting strated with sparkz9.com, I used to blog on blogspot blogs. Actually, I felt it very comfortable. Almost all of my posts were indexed in Google within 24 hours. I was surprised by this fact. It was so damn fast, the moment I post, I was sure of finding some new readers for my blog. If the keyword competition was less, my posts were used to get indexed in the firs 2 result’s page. I never used to spend time on promotion. That time, I used to think my content is unique and very good. That inspired me to go for a domain name and professional hosting. Is was not the same case over here. My posts were not indexed as quickly as they were done while using blogger. I struggled a bit, but now I’m comfortable with my sparkz9.com wordpress blog.

The reasons I could figure out why blogger posts were getting indexed in Google is: Blogger.com is Google’s family member and also, Blogger.com has a pagerank of 8. So, those of you who have a dream of becoming a blogger, get yourself a blog at blogger.com and start posting about the topics you love!

Thanx a lot for this suggestion !

Blogger is indeed seen as a high reputed site by google since google owns it :)

And I like your template its really cool and decent looking as well .

Well, I agree with you to a certain extent. I have a self-hosted wordpress blog. But, I don’t see me getting any trouble from Google at all. I update my blog almost everyday, so, since the content changes, I get 2-3 visits from Google bot everyday.

Cheers!

Wordpress ping service should make articles be indexed even faster than blogger though blogspot is a family member of goole. Here you indicate that blogger pr=8, that’s just for blogger homepage, every new member have to start with a pr=n/a, never mind you or me, :)

Hi, same situation with me. But, when I moved to new domain name, I continued to host my blog at Blogger.

Google continue to index my posts with the same speed.

Best regards,
