People will judge you by the look of your blog and you need to know exactly what your blog looks like to your readers. Wordpress does a slimy and underhanded thing where registered users don't see the ads they put on their blogs. Since you have to be registered to have a blog with them, you don't see the ads on your own blog! How crazy is that? How can you be happy about your design when you don't get control over it and don't see what it really looks like?? There's no question on which to choose -- GO TYPEPAD!!! Typepad is awesome.

Although I'm somewhat satisfied with what I've made with Blogger, I've seen blogs that are really well structured and pleasant to look at. One day I may try another platform. It will even be good to enhance my search engine exposure. Have a nice week, José Hi everyone,

Well, since I don’t know HTML or any website editing language, I relly on already made templates. Although I’m somewhat satisfied with what I’ve made with Blogger, I’ve seen blogs that are really well structured and pleasant to look at.
One day I may try another platform. It will even be good to enhance my search engine exposure.

Have a nice week,
