Press Release Body = Blogspot blogs vs blogger blogs on your own domains.
Everyone knows you can make blogger blogs on your own domain or host them for free at blogspot.com. For the average person who wants to make a blog there is little difference between the 2 (besides that one will cost you a domain and some hosting), but for marketers and specifically Adsense publishers there are many and varying consequences for the choice of one of these forms of blogs over another. Allow me to explain.
Many beginning Adsense publishers opt for blogspot blogs because when planning to create them it is a big saver when you don\'t have to fork out for many domains and an expensive host to handle it all. As well as a big saver though it can also be a big mistake.
Here are some reasons why blogspot.com blogs might not be the best option.
1. Blogs at blogspot.com get pulled very easily. Because recently many programs have been written to quickly create blogspot.com blogs, the spam filters are very tight on this kind of blog and anything that could even resemble a spam post or an adsense blog will be results in that blog being deleted. Not only that but for Adsense publishers to know is that blogger.com don\'t like blogs to be made solely for the purpose of making money from adsense and so can delete blogs for no reason other than it seems like an adsense blog. 2. Because of this same reason, many posts to blogspot blogs get saved as drafts and not posted. This causes the user to have to log into the account to unlock the blog and allow it to remain active. If you can imagine having to do this when you have hundreds of blogs, you will see what I mean. 3. Even if they survive the spam filters, each blogspot blog comes with an option that when it is online, other people can flag it as a spam blog and have it deleted.
So what\'s the alternative? I have always been biased to hosting the blogs on my own domains. Here\'s why:
1. These blogs can\'t get deleted by blogger at all! Of course if they are blatantly crappy spammy blogs their life will come to an end at the hand of the search engines but unlike blogspot blogs their lives will never be ended prematurely by blogger for looking like a spam blog. 2. Can be posted to often without arousing suspicion. If you post to a blogspot blog more than once a day it will usually get deleted but with own domain blogger blogs you can post frequently (to get quicker search engine spidering) and not worry about deletion. 3. They become self growing websites! Each time a new post is made a new page is added to your website so each page has its own post. This means without any effort on your behalf your website will be constantly getting more pages in the search engines, more traffic, more clicks and eventually more money. 4. They use up less resources than normal sites or other kinds of blogs. For example when you put a word press blog on your domain you have to build a data base and consequently your site continues to grow and uses more bandwidth which could eventually results in your site running slower and incurring server problems. With blogger blogs on your domains however the data is still stored at blogger.com. So you have the benefits of a blogger blog without having the increase in bandwidth usage!
As you can see there is much to say on this topic. But the fact is that if you are mass creating blogs to profit from Adsense or affiliate sales (or anything for that matter) I believe that blogger blogs on your own domains are certainly the way to go.
