Blogger is easy enough for an amateur blogger, but it has enough great design tools, widgets and promotion features to be one of the top services. With this service, you can start posting immediately using a basic template or create your own customizable theme. For these reasons and more, Blogger is the Top Ten Reviews Bronze Award winner for blog services.
Design Tools
The draft page of this service looks very similar to a typical Word document. It has a clean design that doesn't overwhelm you with features or widgets. The basic text editor uses nearly double the tools that most other blog platforms have. One key feature we love is the addition of spell-check in this toolbar. The obvious need for spell-check makes you wonder why it isn't standard in many competing services. Blogger takes care of the code-minded out there as well with a basic HTML editor.
On the right-hand column are the post setting tools. They allow you to add labels and tags for better archiving; you can schedule when your posts are published and moderate reader comments to an extent.
Feature Management
Blogger's automatic alignment with Google's other products helps it out a great deal. Whether you are a member of Google Plus or not, your blog links to it. You have the chance to automatically share every blog post as soon as it's published, or to be asked to share it every time you complete a post.
In your blog settings, you can add multiple authors and designate their roles. You can also set your blog to public, private to approved readers or private to only the blog authors as a way to message each other. You can set your comment moderation features so that you get an email asking for your approval any time you receive a new comment. However, that is Blogger's only way to eliminate spam. It does not offer the option to ban certain words or IP numbers.
