Which is the best blog platform?
Is it Blogger.com? WordPress.com? WordPress.org? Movable Type? Textpattern? b2evolution?.. etc. And if you familiar with opensource contents management system (CMS), you might considering Joomla, Drupal.. etc as a blog platform as well.
For me, definitely I choose WordPress.org (I mean the ‘hosted on own domain’ one) is the best blog platform. Why I choose WordPress? It simply because of…
1. It is clean & simple coded opensource software.
2. Being an opensource, it is free but priceless.
3. Super easy to install/setup.
4. User friendly and safe… It will suit everybody needs, either you just want to start a blog today or you are seasoned pro blogger.
5. It have thousands of free themes & plugins to customize your blog’s looks & functions.
6. Simply the chosen blog platform by well known pro bloggers like Darren Rowse, Yaro Starak, Justin Tadlock, John Chow, Gobala Krishnan…etc. And don’t forget to mention giant company like Play Station, The New York Times, Ebay…etc, who choose WordPress as their blog platform.
7. Hundreds of thousands communities members to supports either for sourcecode developments or creating themes & plugins.
8. Almost all webhosting support it.
9. Over 400% increasing of users… the number speaks itself..
10. The list goes on…
You not agree? Hey! this is my thought..my choice (actually thousands of other’s choice also). If you not agree WordPress is the best blog platform, what is your choice?
Hello Maliki!
I’m newbie in this blogging world… and just considering to start make a blog for my own. My friend proposed to me to use b2evolution as it have multilingual. What do you think?
(sorry.. I’m Japanese, my English very bad)
Thank you.
Hi Ryu!
Thanks for visiting MyBlogSphere. I was in same situation as yours when I want to start my first blog. Yes, it’s great features in b2evolution to have multilingual, multiblogs & multiusers in single installation. But, this advantage can’t simply beat wordpress. If multilingual is your main concern, don’t worry.. WP also supports in other languages… just get the language pack… and it done. WP also have in Japanese now… go visit http://ja.wordpress.org/
As I mentioned, WP is the choice for many great bloggers and big companies… so, you know it’s great blog platform.
Ryu,
forget to inform you that I’m in Tokyo, Japan right now…
こんにちわ。私は今日本に出張しています。このブログに来て、ありがとうございます。これからブログの内容をどんどん書きますので、ぜひまた来てください。
hey… I just want to show you that even my blog is in English, it’s no problem to write the contents or comments in other language…
