Overview
Blogger is a long-established blog-hosting service that is provided by Google, whose Terms of Service govern its use.[14] Blogs can use a blogspot.com address or a custom domain bought “with just a few clicks”, and Google AdSense can be connected to display ads and earn income from posts.[11] The service also links to Google Analytics and Google storage.[11]
Blogger remains a simple option for personal blogs and hobby sites that want a Google-account-based service with minimal setup. Its official about page lists no subscription price. Compared with modern platforms, Blogger offers few new features, limited themes and no built-in newsletter or membership tools, and it is less suited to publishers who want to build a business around their writing.
