| | Hi everyone! I'm a new member, I'm here for free web hosting... I would like to set up a blog. But I don't know what's the best blog system. Some tellme that blogger is the best, and other tellme that I must use WordPress.
What's the better blog system for you?? |

I personally recommend wordPress. No particular reason for this recommendation I must say. I don't really work with blogs very much. You can get a blog hosted on a website made specifically for hosting blogs. You could get a subdomain like "yourblog.blogsite.com" or something. Or if you get hosted here at trap17, you can buy your own domain and host your blog there. All you would have to do is install wordPress through the fantastico script installer included in the Cpanel with trap17 hosting. Then you can have "yourblog.com".

It all depends on what you want out of your site. If you simply want a blog and pretty much nothing else, I would recommend using Wordpress. However, if you want to build a website with a blog as its main features, you should use the CMS. I have heard different things about different CMS software, so I recommend that you decide what CMS is the best at http://opensourcecms.com. I have heard good things about Joomla, but I would check out more than one CMS before you make a decision.

WordPress for the WIN! I've used WordPress for many months, It's simple to use, Easy to install skins and plugins, and is a fresh breath (which has been so for a long time)  If you can't be assed getting yourself some hosting and set it up manually (or through cPanel's Fantastico) then get some Blogger thing. I also think WordPress gives free subdomains plus small hosting (yourname.wordpress.org) or something.

I've only created a couple of Blogs during my Web Creation Career. However, I used Blogger.com and it was good to me. Pretty easy to use and what not, too.

I don't think Joomla has an in-built blogging system, but I could be wrong. There's atleast Blog Addons for it though, so no stress if you have setup Joomla.

I would say go for WordPress. Being on Trap17, it would give you way more than what Blogger.com ever will. Blogger hardly has any good advantages of it's own and the readymade templates are plain ugly for me. Many, many, many more features. Most customization. Better standards. So many skins and plug-ins. A great community to hold your back. It's like owning a really nice web-site rather than having a "blog". It's not just out of a fad that WordPress is basically called the best blogging platform and I've been using blog systems for almost two years now and nothing, absolutely nothing beats WordPress. But if you need something more than a blog, you can go for CMSs. Someone mentioned the link to Open Source CMS. Give it a try, that's the best place to discover new and compare CMSs according to your own needs.

nucleus is a good blog plus it lets you create several other smaller blogs. Like wordpress, nucleus is very easy to learn and simple, great skins and very small and compact. I would recommend you to try the Nucleus before Wordpress, you'll be amazed.

Of course worldpress I know z-blog is pop here too Both are for the people who have his own domain and need a system. and It seem like XXX.XXblog.com is good for common use.

There is a lot difference between blog hostings and blog programs I use wordpress it is really great you have many options you can add anything and work almost everything with it also there is so many extensions for wordpress and many nice themse that way your blog will not look the same and whatecver you can change it is quite easy and you cna make even some better changes if you know some of the php and mysql in the worst case just php will work.

I also like wordpress as it gives you enough freedom to customize your blog. You can also add a huge number of plugins and themes and the maintenance is really easy. The support forums at wordpress are a bit chaotic but you'll eventually get the help you need. Oh, I almost forgot about the backup, import and export options which will enable you to move your blog from hosting to hosting without any problem.

I use blogger because it is intuitive and simple, but this usually also means you sacrifice freedom to code. I am now sold solely on coding because although it may take longer to produce a site, you can theoretically have the freedom to make it look exactly how you want it and it will be more original.

As a $8,000 / month blogger, trust me - Wordpress is definitely your best bet. The only thing better would be a proprietary, specially programmed blog to meet certain needs, but with wordpress you would only need to create certain plugins.

I must say that since my last post here I've started using wordpress and I think it's great so I recommend it thoroughly. I think it's better than blogger and the fact that you can not embed (or easily at least) objects keep the wordpress network more clean and more information oriented than turning into a bunch of awful designs with lots of widgets, media players, youtubes, etc. I still think it's the best option. I've also heard good things about movable type but I never used it. For bthaxor I recommend you to describe your error in wordpress forums (if you don't get an answer here), surely other users can help you.
