Everyone faces a common question before stepping into a blogging career: Should I start blogging with WordPress or Google Blogger? Many people suggest starting with WordPress, and many people suggest starting blogging with Google Blogger.
As a result, young bloggers cannot reach the right decision due to two consecutive suggestions. We will give correct and complete clear solutions to these questions.
But before getting a clear idea about whether to start blogging with Blogger or WordPress, you need to know the difference between WordPress.Com and WordPress.Org.
In today's post, we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of WordPress.Com and WordPress.Org, and in the next post, we will discuss in detail whether Blogger or WordPress is perfect for you.
Although WordPress.Com and WordPress.Org seem to be the same, there are many differences between the two. Before writing about these two things, let me briefly say that WordPress.Com is a free basic version of WordPress. You can use it completely free of cost.
On the other hand, WordPress.Org is the full professional version of WordPress, which you have to buy and use hosting in exchange for money. You have to bear the full control and responsibility of it.
Advantages of WordPress.Com
Here you will be given up to 3GB of free space. However, after this 3GB is full, you have to buy space according to your needs.
They will regularly back up your site. You don't have to worry about it.
Disadvantages of WordPress.Com
- Show various ads they need on your blog. In this case, if you want to remove ads, you have to pay.
- You cannot use any type of advertisement of your choice until you get more than 25,000 page views per month on your blog. Then even though you will be able to use ads on your blog, they will have to pay 50% of the revenue from your ads.
- You can't use any plugging. And you must be aware that the biggest advantage of WordPress is the various plugins.
- You cannot use any type of custom theme even if you wish. In this case, it will be difficult to give your blog a professional look.
- You cannot use any type of custom analytics software. Because it will not allow you to use any custom code.

- The theme of the site can be changed without your permission. Because these themes are in full control of the developer.
- You have to pay to enjoy the benefits of your Themes upgrade. Only then will you have the opportunity to upgrade themes.
Advantages of WordPress.Org

- Upload everything and use thousands of plugins.
- All custom themes can be installed and modified to your liking.
- You can change your hosting anywhere at any time without any problem.
- You can earn money online using any type of advertisement you like.

Disadvantages of WordPress.Org

- You are responsible for all upgrades.
- You will also be responsible for data backup.
- You must always be vigilant to protect against any kind of Spamming or Virus attack. Otherwise, your web can be damaged at any time.
Which one should you use?
If you just want to use it as a personal blog without worrying about earning any money online, then you can easily use WordPress.Com completely free of cost.
But if you want to take blogging as a career or want to earn money online by blogging, then of course I will tell everyone to use WordPress.Org in exchange for some money. Still, if you think you will use either of the two, then it is your personal matter.
