#FF Feature & Follow #18

3/1/2013

5 Comments

 
Feature & Follow is a weekly meme hosted by, Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. Every Friday, each host will have their own Feature Blog which allows them to show off more new blogs! It is a fun way to not only gain new followers but to meet and make new blogger friends!  

If you are new to Shelf Addiction, please leave a comment below with how you're following and I will make sure to visit & follow your blog back. :-) ♥

Question: Confess your blogger sins! Is there anything as a newbie blogger that you’ve done, that as you gained more experience you were like — oops?

Answer: Mainly, I wish I would have used wordpress.org to build (thanks for the correction Lexxie!) my site.  I paid for the site that I'm using now, so I figured I'd stick with it and not waste money. Slowly my this company has begun making improvements with making new features available, so it's getting better. They have a long way to go to be even close to what WordPress can provide, but it's a step in the right direction.

Happy Reading,
~Tamara

Wordpress.org is not a host, it's more like blogger, it's where you find your templates and plugins, and it sets up your database for you. I use bluehost for hosting, and wordpress.org to set up my blog so everybody else can see it...

What are you using now? it doesn't look like blogger to me.

Thanks for stopping by <a href="http://unconventionalbookviews.com/feature-and-follow-34-newbie-oops/">my FF post</a> earlier. I'm an old follower hopping through.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Thanks for making that correction for me. "Host" was the incorrect word. I went ahead and corrected my statement. :-) You're right again, I did not use Blogger. I used weebly.com to build my site. I paid for a pro account so that I would have access to more features, but it's still not good enough for me. There are definitely things missing that I would like to add, but Weebly hasn't added those particular plug-ins it yet.

I've read that people prefer Wordpress or some other blog type thing over blogger, and I'm not sure why. I guess you can do more with it, and it has more features, but as a blog reader for a long time now, I actually prefer some of the features and the look of blogs that use blogger over all others.

I'm on blogspot and I figured I'd make/buy a domain of my own if I figure out exactly what I want to do and stick to it! :)

I use blogger. If my blog gets bigger and I start to really become involved like I want to then I will look at getting my own domain, but for now and just beginning.. I'm doing the free stuff!
