… I observed the following:

  1. The vast majority don’t know how to write properly.
  2. A lot offer SEO and blogging tips on wordpress.com or blogger. People also offer tips on how to get easy money over the internet on these services.
  3. Most don’t use the MORE tag when posting videos or any other flash content.
  4. Blogger is used more than wordpress.com although blogger sucks when it comes to design and functionality.
  5. Loads of people use widgets like calendar and categories. As far as I know, these two are considered useless. Also have seen a lot of flash clocks.
  6. Some can’t read. On the first page you have a post stating you are not accepting link exchange requests and someone leaves a comment (in romanian on an english blog :death: ) on your latest post (without any link the the post’s topic) while there’s a nice ‘Contact’ link in your blog.
  7. The easiest way to make a blog is putting miniclip games on your site and naming your site something-containing-the-word-games. This can be done with or without your own domain. In the case a domain is used then it’s double trouble. You just wasted some money.
  8. Most blogs (on blogger and wordpress.com at least) are made in a moment of boredom.
  9. The most common description in About pages is “I am me (and no one else)”.
  10. Some have captcha + moderation + akismet activated on comments.
  11. Right-click protection is so ’95. If I want to steal something from your site, that will not stop me.

Did I miss anything?

    Yes, blogger sucks sometimes, but if you really want do do something you will achive :D I don’t think that my blog is ugly or malfunctionig.

    Nevertheless blogger is not a professional tool – a short example: i wanted to host a php script for a mail form but i can’t use it, even if i host it on another site.

    Come on, blogspot isn’t THAT bad :))
    About point 6. I actually got a comment saying ‘I didn’t read your post, but I can tell you this…’ Okay, in romanian it sounds a bit different, but you get the idea :D

      lol :P The comment I am talking about said something like “I saw your blog is interesting…” but he clearly didn’t even look at the first page :lol:

      I consider it spam.
