If you are a dedicated blogger, or one who is looking to create your own blog, there will be two words in particular that keep appearing: WordPress and Blogspot. This is because when it comes to the world of free blog hosting, these are the two main players that you have to choose between. They both basically do the same job, in that they will enable you to place your blogs and customize them as you see fit. There are certain differences between the two however, and it is these that you must consider before you subscribe to one or the other.
Blogspot Vs WordPress templates
Take customizing themes for example, blogspot has a collection of easy to customize templates whilst WordPress allows no editing of templates and style sheet editing is only available as an upgrade which costs.
Image storage
Where image storage is concerned, there is 1GB with Blogspot but no browsing facility but with WordPress you get 3GB and you can upload many formats.
