wordpress better than blogger

1. Easy to customize Its very easy to use and customize. Even people with little knowledge of html can tweak blogger template to certain extent. You don't have to go through php or mysql lessons for customizing it. And even better if you are expert in mark up languages you can just convert any web template to blogger template very easily. There is lots of help resources on blogger help.
2. Protects you from SEOphobia Some tech expert out there says that wordpress is better search engine optimized than blogger, i don't believe that. They say so on the basis that wordpress allows the use of Meta tags in each post. But remember Google crawlers looks into your whole content not just meta tags, recently i heard that Google crawlers totally ignores meta tags like keywords and description because of lots of black hat SEO practices going around the web. As long as your content is unique, original and contains proper keywords you will get better SEO than others. And don't get stuck into wordpress SEOphobia. SEOphobia according to me is condition where the blogger forgets about the content and just put their total concentration to SEO while writing a post, the result is poor content quality.
3. Easy Interface The web interface of blogger dashboard is way much better than wordpress, I don't know about others but for me its interface is easy on eyes and mouse than dull and boring looking interface of the wordpress.
4. Upload New Wordpress Themes From Within The Admin Panel
With the introduction of 2.7, you have been able to upload plugins from within the admin panel, so it was only a matter of time before the same was going to apply to themes to. For many users this will eliminate having to use FTP clients, and by the look of a lot of Wordpress Blogs out there, this is a good thing. As well as being able to upload the themes from within the panel, you can also browse themes and search via keywords, and also apply filters too based on width, colours and columns.
5. Widget Section Overhaul
Finally (again) all your sidebars are now visible on the screen, instead of having to select from the drop down box. When you have multiple sidebars this makes a lot of difference as you don’t have to try and remember what goes where. The layout is much cleaner and is a lot easier to use.
