How to start blog using blogger

How to start blogging by using Google blogger platform beginners guide.
Blogger

Blogger is a most common platform used for start up blogs. Service is provided by Google. It is not a script or does not have a database. All these are with Google. Following are the features of blogger
  • No need of server , it is hosted in Google servers
  • Only domain name need to be purchased
  • No need of bothering upgrading the server if traffic increases, Google will manage that.
  • Templates for blogger is available in internet
  • Simple configuration and more
Disadvantages of blogger are
  • No control over database or information published
  • Only can be used as a blog 
  • No tools can be installed like wordpress
  • If Google changes terms and conditions over blogger platform, that will affect your blog.
  • Google can terminate your blog (this will only hapoen when there is a strong reason)

Which platform is better for you?

For a starter, or if you are only focusing on blogging, you must choose Googles blogger platform. To start this you just need 5-10$ only. And you don't need to be bother about the blog uptime, bandwidth management, database size etc. That's all free man.

 If you are focusing on larger scale blogging with multiple users and moderators, you must choose wordpress blogging. Also you could add payment function any time you required in case any service is provided by you. All information will be safe with you because all controls are in your hand.

Also there other many services available in internet. In my opinion these two are the best options.
