Why Wordpress? Dan? Why?
I tried making a blog using Blogger.com but after 30 minutes I got annoyed. There was hardly any flexibility, the themes were all a bit samey and I would have had to put up with an address that was something like http://dansphotographs321.blogger.com
I think www.dan-jackson.com/blog has a much better ring to it.
Seeing as I pay $10 a month to Dreamhost to host my main site – www.dan-jackson.com I thought I may as well use the services I pay for and install a nifty Wordpress blog.
Things that are great about Wordpress:
- The “Dashboard” interface is bloody ace. So easy to use and so many options
- The themes are great. All free and far more interesting than the Blogger ones.
- All in One SEO pack? Bloody brilliant.
- It’s not Blogger.
Just realised, I have mentioned my Etsy shop for at least 10 minutes. Go there now and buy my stuff.
Just seen your post on Etsy. Welcome to the world of blogging. It’s very addictive.
i agree, wordpress is much better.
i have a blogger but as soon as i have my own domain, i will definitely swap to wordpress.
it’s much more versatile, hands on, and customizable.
i use blogger because I find it so easy – tried wordpress but couldn’t work a thing out! I am finding your blog quite hard to figure out, have to say!
