Why I Prefer Wordpress

I know, I know… this is a funny post on a Blogger blog. LOL! But as I mentioned, I’m in the process of moving this blog to Wordpress and have been blogging on several other sites powered by Wordpress.

Since this week on Moms Morning Show we’ve been featuring “Having Fun and Making Money with Wordpress“, I thought I would share a couple of the reasons why I prefer Wordpress so much. The two features that I love the most are:

  • Post scheduling.
  • Post slug.

Post scheduling means that you can write write write to your blog on those days you have a lot to say, and Wordpress will schedule them to publish when you want them to. This is an awesome feature!

I think all of us have those particularly chatty weeks when we have lots to say, and then we have other weeks (or months!) where our blog is lonely and quiet. The post scheduling feature means this is no big deal.

Post slug is another cool WP feature that is also search engine friendly. You want your post title to be interesting and a little catchy so you can grab the reader’s attention, but your post filename (the .html part) needs to have keywords in it that tells the search engines what your post is about.

WP has many more cool features that I love. For one, Blogger often bogs down (maybe due to the sheer number of splogs (spam blogs) on Blogger?) and takes forever to publish. I never have problems publishing to my WP blogs.

Right now I’m in the progress of having a VA move a couple of my sites to Wordpress, including this one. Stay tuned for changes around here. :)

    I’ll be watching for your transition experiences – I’ve considered moving to WP from Blogger, too, but hate to think of all the work to do it!
