### "Free Website Creation Made Easy"

January 13, 2026

5.0

I have used Blogger for over 15 years. I've created many permanent sites and some temporary. They are easily indexed through the Google console to get great placement on search engines. They're easy to create and are very simple to use for a quick site needed to promote a special piece of my art for an upcoming event.

Pros

I can make as many websites as I want for free. I use them with Google adsense and products I sell to bring in more revenue. Because they are by Google I am able to easily get relevant traffic using basic SEO skills. It also offers a free ssl certificate internally placed for security requirements.

Cons

Because it is free, it has many limits that a paid host offers. The templates are limited so much customizaion is needed.

February 21, 2025

5.0

As I started my blogging journey blogger provide me a good experience in terms of easy to setup, simple and fast and effective.

Pros

Blogger is very easiest and beginner friendly and free platform where everyone can start his own online journey, and the best part it is very simple and no coding required to setup a blogger website. And everything is possible in blogger.

Cons

All things are perfect but blogger offers less customisation features and rest all are perfect.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Blogger

It offers more customisation options and other features like seo custom plugins that make it a great alternative of blogger.

### "Easy to use "

January 1, 2026

3.0

Eh, it was ok. As a user, it does the job but if someone posts defaming blogs there's little to no support in getting the material removed

Pros

The ability to easily create, publish, and share content online is extremely easy, even a child can do it.

Cons

There's no live customer support. All support is through an AI system, with the option to submit a report to be reviewed but there's no feedback or communication from support team.

Pros

Blogger is simple, reliable, and easy to use. I love how quickly I can publish posts, customize layouts, and manage content without any stress or hassle.

### "Blogger Is very good"

June 16, 2025

5.0

I have been using it for at least ten years and it has never let me down. I think they might update it but I would rather not have to learn new stuff

Pros

It is easy to use and it has kept the same format for a long time. I think I had a hard time deciding if I like this more then word Press

Cons

I want a button that will allow me to have downloadable files. I think that would make it better for sure.

Alternatives considered

[WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/)

Reason for choosing Blogger

It does not charge me from day one. I think it lets me monetize also.

### "The best starter option out there"

June 16, 2023

5.0

It's my favorite in order to pass Google ads and then I have so far tended to switch over to another platform once I've been "certified"

Pros

The best part about blogger is that it is so easy to start and use, however after moving from some other hosting platforms out there you really start to notice Just how much it is lacking in terms of useful features It really is just a blank simple easy to use platform and nothing else, bare bone if you will.

Cons

My least favorite thing about blogger was that it just didn't offer much outside of hosting a blog. And there doesn't seem to be much in terms of SEO help for instance a lot of the terms even though it's with Google didn't match up to what I was used to and you would think a lot of the things that Google uses to rank would be included but they are not for instance meta tags and all that stuff would be a lot easier to access or utilize. It's extremely bare bones

Reason for choosing Blogger

The ease of use gave me time to straighten out other areas of my business before pushing forward with the blog on a more comprehensive platform.

### "Free. Simple. Blogging platform for individuals and small teams."

November 28, 2025

5.0

It might work for a team as an extremely low-cost way to publish financial tips, firm news, and educational content without concern for hosting or maintenance. It allows advisors to maintain an easily accessible, frequently updated repository of their content to help foster trust with clients and prospects alike.​

Pros

Blogger is completely free, quick to set up with just a Google account, and includes hosting, basic themes, and simple tools for writing, scheduling posts, and checking stats. It’s easy enough that non‑technical users can publish articles, add images or videos, and start sharing content in minutes, which suits a small financial services firm well.​

Cons

Limited customization compared to modern site builders: templates are basic, advanced design changes harder, with less control over the site than on self-hosted platforms. There’s no dedicated customer support, updates are infrequent, and power users often outgrow its simple feature set and SEO tools.

### "Simple website creation and the publication of articles by editorial teams."

November 8, 2025

5.0

Blogger made it easy for our team to publish content and update our journal's site, supporting fast article releases and page editing. It has increased our online visibility and helped us maintain consistency for the International Journal of Nursing and Health Services.

Pros

I like how Blogger's intuitive setup lets me create our journal's website, publish articles, and edit pages with such ease. Customizing layouts and managing content is pretty straightforward, which keeps our publishing workflow at an efficient level, allowing us to focus on writing.

Cons

Customer support can be slow to answer complex issues, and learning advanced customization takes extra time. Security and user permissions take careful setup to protect sensitive drafts, which is not exactly intuitive for new editors.

### "Blogger for technical documentation"

January 18, 2026

5.0

I still like to use google blogger to write techinical documentation since it has very simple user interface.

Pros

I use google blogger to write technical documentation and share with teams, you can also use blogger and knowledgebase for your team, it supports rich text editing. And you can easily share your content on social media.

Cons

Google blogger is also a 10+ year product, it lacks the latest integration with AI and mordern features.

### "The OG Premier Blogging Website"

November 16, 2025

4.0

Pros

Blogger is an effective medium for article writing, creative website content, and personalized publishing. It allows editing even after publishing. The comments section enables interactive communication with readers.

Cons

Blogger, while convenient and easily integrated with Google applications, has not updated its features in a long time. It has almost become a thing of the past, probably due to lack of innovative features.

### "A Versatile Bogging Website "

May 15, 2025

4.0

My overall experience has been positive. It offers lots of features, though at times I wish they were easier to navigate.

Pros

I like its easy public use for sharing all manner of information. It's accessible and easy to use. I used it for managing a blog for family and friends when we went to Europe, and it worked quite well.

Cons

I found earlier versions of the website to be more helpful. There are more options today, and, therefore, more issues. It has made it more difficult for casual users to know all of its ins and outs.

### "Even my mom had a blog, and that should say something"

October 22, 2024

4.0

Going back and visiting my blog fills me with nostalgia and joy. It was such a fun process for me, and I used it pretty much daily. It became a form of self-expression and I'm glad I had this outlet.

Pros

Blogger was my idol in middle school. Having my own space to design, write, and share pictures and updates with my family was almost a healing, self-identifying process.

Cons

Overall, the functioning was a little clunky, and I think now that technology has advanced, there are sleeker, more user-friendly options.

### "Honest review by a mobile user of this app"

July 19, 2023

4.0

A good experience in writing with lack of SEO settings.

Pros

The blogger app is a very good writing tool for mobile users and for the people who want to learn how to write content and decorate it.

Cons

The blogger app doesn't have even simple SEO settings like Image ALT text, Search description, centre align, these features are available on official site of blogger, the site does not fulfill the needs of mobile users such as writing, theme upload and does not have search option in html code (Mobile mostly Android) (even with desktop mode) while it has these features on Desktop and laptop like windows devices.

### "Solid Platform for Straight-Up Blogging"

August 24, 2021

5.0

For just blogging (especially for the less tech-savvy) this is the platform I would always recommend, it can be set up fast and customized easily. For those looking to have a blog as a lesser addition to a business site and have the whole thing hosted in the same place - there are platforms that are better suited.

Pros

I started as a total beginner with Blogger and it was able to grow with me as I acquired more digital skills. I didn't need to know (or learn) tons of coding or need to create my own templates to do some customization right away. Then, as I grew I was able to add enhancements with tools that has always been there for me (like the ability to easily paste template code and check it as I did my edits). There was no time I felt that there was a gap between my skill level and the next level I wanted to take my blog.

Cons

For me, blogger is (as the name suggests) a BLOG platform. I found that, as my needs expanded (need for a store or a landing page, information pages, etc.) That the level of experience with templates and coding needed to take blog pages and convert them to other types of pages was much more steep than my prior experience.

### "Great Product for Simple Blog"

March 26, 2024

5.0

Blogger has been the most straightforward product. Simple to cut and paste and publish. It feeds our app without fail. It has been the most reliable product I’ve used to date.

Pros

Blogger is so easy to use. I just cut a paste just like any regular word processor. When I go to schedule my posts, a window pops up to verify the time and date I have selected and that feature has caught errors before they happened.

Cons

Hard to think of anything that I really don’t like about it. In the beginning I had a little trouble with the RSS feed, but was able to resolve the issues quickly.

### " A great tool for anyone who wants to have a free blog."

October 7, 2021

4.0

I have a health blog for over 5 years on blogger. I managed to leave it as I would like. it turned out to be a very professional site and it helps me a lot in gaining new clients and what's best was all free.

Pros

The point that most caught my attention for using blogger was the fact that it is free and a great tool. I had a blog with him for several years which helped me build my online structure. It has several ready-made templates that make life easier for you to get your blog online in a few minutes. If you want, you can send the domain and google servers and because it's theirs, you already have google adsense integrated. I have recurring earnings with my blog because of adsense.

Cons

Despite being a great tool that allows you to build great websites it is somewhat limited. In addition to requiring a good knowledge of HTML and programming to achieve better results. But even so I think it's worth having.

### "A Great Option for Blogging on the Cheap"

April 23, 2022

5.0

I have used Blogger to create my own blog for my daily Bible devotionals. It's something that I use multiple times a day and a site that I link all of my social media accounts back to.

Pros

I love that Blogger has a free option that anyone can use. So many other sites charge for different options, and the free versions are really limited. With Blogger, you can play around with things, change colors, fonts, layouts, and make your blog look just how you want it to look without paying extra or running into hidden fees. I also like that they have an integrated mobile app that automatically formats posts to mobile viewing.

Cons

It's entirely on you to get the word out there and get people to your blog. It's not a big surprise with a free platform, but it does take extra work to be found by the readers that you're looking to gain.

June 8, 2023

3.0

Blogger saved me a lot of time by providing great blog publishing services over the years

Pros

With blogger, we can create a simple basic blog without spending money or manage any complex server/backend

Cons

Built-in rich text editor feels less smooth and there are almost no new features, and what's even more annoying is paragraphs that don't use semantic tags

January 18, 2023

3.0

Overall, Blogger is good to start your blogging journey when you have few resources to start with but you can upgrade to others once you can afford to pay.

Pros

It is 100% free to create a blog. Creating a blog on blogger is very simple and straightforward.

Cons

What I least like about blogger is that you don't get full control over your blog. You cannot have root access to the blog since the site is hosted by Google.

January 12, 2023

5.0

I've had an exceptional experience with Blogger, and have used to for almost 5 years now. From journaling, blogging, content marketing to website creation; I find that it is reliant and straight to the point and has remained consistent.

Pros

This was the first app I used that gave me confidence with content creation. It is extremely user friendly and I love how quick and efficient it was with uploading content. I was also able to create my website with it; it's multi-purpose functionality enabled me to utilise it in various tasks.

Cons

I feel there should be more options with customising. It can also be a little bit challenging at first to get other readers to find you.

### "It has lived its life"

April 14, 2022

3.0

Initial experience was good when we rode the hype express and started using it but slowly when our competitors started shifting to other platforms and we saw the difference that it was making, we also made the same decision & switched.

Pros

It had a simplistic UI and was easy to use until other competitor tools showed us that it can be easier to use, and that we are putting in too much effort. With respect to current advancements and standards, I don't find anything likable.

Cons

Everything. Instead of solving problems it became an issue itself. We were having a hard time managing it. Once we used the modern tools we never looked back at it.
