Sabrina Giles (sabrina-giles) | 12 comments I have a blog on both Blogger and Wordpress, but sometimes I go back and forth on which I like better. Wordpress.com seems to connect other bloggers more easily, as well as making it easier for you to search for other bloggers by category. I really like that feature, along with the fact that I seem to get more followers, likes, etc. on Wordpress than Blogger. I'm not really sure why this is, but 50 posts on Blogger has earned me 1 follower while my first 6 posts earned me 10 followers on Wordpress.
That's why I kind of left Blogger behind for a long time, but I go back to thinking about it every so often because Wordpress has its flaws too. With Wordpress you have to do an upgrade to upload videos, or at least more than one video, and I can't do any of my giveaways with the rafflecopter widget. I can't post gifs either, so that does limit the kinds of posts I can put on my Wordpress blog, which continuously saddens me because I've been thinking about making video blog posts. Not so with Wordpress.
Sometimes I really want to switch back to Blogger, but the connectivity thing makes me nervous. I don't know if anyone's had the same problem with that as I have, but I would really like to know how bloggers on Blogspot seek out other bloggers in their same category? Or any category? If I'm right in saying the connectivity between bloggers is a little harder than on Wordpress, then I ask how you did it. How did you get all those followers on your Blogspot blog?
