The limitations of free Hosting on Bloggers

If you are new to blogging, and want to get your feet wet, you must first experiment with a free blog hosting service before spending your money. In fact, a subscription to a free blog service is an excellent way to improve your blogging skills before moving on to bigger and better opportunities. There is a lot to learn to be a real blogger and free hosting sites are one of the best places to do that learning.
The packages that provide many hosting companies usually include such items as blog templates, a control panel to post and access your blogs management tools, and more. And a very popular blog hosting company that these services is Blogger.com. Recently Google acquired Blogger.com and now it's even easier to get extra money on your blog via Google AdSense to earn. However, there are some limitations for the use of Blogger.com.
To begin with, anytime you subscribe to a free hosting service your domain name will have the extension of your host. Place your domain name will be for his own, it carry a sub domain name under the URL of the host. This means that your blog will be harder to find and, unless you are into SEO strategies service, will probably make it not very high on the list of search engine results. This is not to say that your blog can not be found. It can be when people your blog address.
Another limitation on Blogger.com is that it is difficult to import a template, unless you understand and experience writing code. Blogger.com provides a window that displays your blog code is displayed. This gives you the opportunity to make additions or deletions in your template. But if you don't know where to write the code or to take it out, then you will not able to make changes. Fortunately, if what you wrote doesn't fit then the host software will not accept and make the desired changes.
The free Web hosting with WordPress is more advantageous, when we compare the flexibility of the CMS, as a blogger already limits the users to only a few changes, but WordPress is more flexible and allows the installation of themes, plugins etc, and the ease of posting in WordPress is more than that in Blogger. It should always be advised that one can go for a custom domain name instead of the sub-domain, which both the branding value, and convenience of optimization for search engines.
