Blogger Vs. Wordpress Vs. Tumblr

Blogger: This Site
I have to say I love all the sites. They are all cool and unique in there own ways. The first blog I ever started was on blogger. So I think blogger will always be my favorite. First of all blogger is free unless you pay for a domain. I currently don't pay for a domain but might sometime in the future. You get a lot of free things you can add. You an add linkwithin for free which directs people to other posts on your site they might like. You can add html and it's easy to do that. There is a follow button which makes it easy for anyone on google to follow you. Plus, for people not on google you can add e-mail subscriptions and feed reader subscriptions so people can keep up with your blog on anything. I love all the templates on blogger and they are free so that is something that also rocks about blogger. You can have a private blog where only people you invite can see. There is no option to make only certain posts private.

Wordpress: Wordpress Blog

I like wordpress because I think they have some very neat and clean looking layouts. I also think they are pretty simple and straightforward to use. My biggest issue with wordpress is that there are not many theme options otherwise you have to pay for some of there premium options. Also if you want to make a more complex site you have to have your own domain otherwise there are certain features you can't add for example linkwithin. It is hard to follow people as well but people can subscribe to your blog via e-mail and you can add google friend connect. You can have a private blog that only people you invite can see and make posts private as well.


Tumblr: Tumblr Blog

Tumblr is great for adding short posts and pictures. It is hard for people to follow you though unless they are already on tumblr. Mostly people use tumblr for blogging things they like and adding pictures they like. They have some cool free layouts but for some of the better ones you still have to pay for. The same as with wordpress. It is easy to blog on tumblr and you can have more then one blog the same as with blogger and wordpress. You can't import to tumblr though so if you want a new blog you will have to start from scratch.
You can have a private password protected blog and you can also make posts private that you don't want anyone else to see.

What motivates you?

I was reading a blog from the Lady Bloggers Society. The topic was whys you can be inspired to create. I liked a lot of the ideas and the ones that always inspire me are other people's creativity. Listening to music is always a way that sparks me to come up with a new idea. I came up with a few the other night that I'm thinking about working on.

Watching movies inspires me. And so does reading a good book. Seeing how other people write helps me to get ideas about my writing style and how I might want to go about a project.

So what motivates you to write? What inspires you?
