Blogspot or Wordpress When It Comes To Make Money?

[myqute]

Blogspot is actually using Blogger templates and they have a reputation for girly sites selling Japanese or kawaii fashion and clothes. I rarely come across one that actually makes money from "digital goods" or is taken seriously as a "classifieds" site.

But self-hosted wordpress blog have more plug-in and features like shopping cart and auction software. Even if you're not selling anything, there's a Donate-Me (Buy me a beer) plugin to use for free - you just link it up to PayPal. There are perhaps, a dozen more reasons to use Wordpress.

Blogspot for sure :-)
I had no idea there were so many ways related to making money online, until i checked some of it myself.
Some really good ones are

Getting a self hosted Wordpress for money making is necessary I think

I am with you Anhsy. Partially because freely-hosted sites have lesser credibility. For example, would you buy a domain and webhosting from someone on goodstuff.blogspot.com or goodstuff.com ?

I would like to find out one thing though since I am not using Blogger - does Blogger allow customisation of comments page? I have asked in another thread but no one has given a reply yet.

It depends on the niche the blog is in, and the monetization strategy that you plan on doing.

Here's a tip: If you plan to make money only with AdSense with the "current news" or "hot news" niche, it's usually a good idea to use Blogspot blogs because Google loves Blogspot blogs.

It isn't a surprise - Google OWNS Blogger (Blogspot). Wordpress blogs have no problems with SEO either. At least 2 of my web pages are ranked 4 with the homepage ranked 3 (before it was suspended due to spike in high traffic volume!)

Theslyguy, is a Blogger comments page editable? Since my webhosting is suspended, I was thinking of trying (surprise suprise) - BLOGGER!!!

I'm not sure if the Blogger comments section is editable. I only used it for a few weeks when I started blogging. Sorry if I'm no help.

Thank you for your prompt reply TheSlyGuy! My other concern is that some countries (like Turkey) are starting to block access to Blogger but it's not major. My blog will not appeal to Muslims I think! >,<

Hope to get my blog back up once I find a better webhosting service provider!
