Wordpress is the biggest competitor of blogger. It is very powerful CMS that has hundreds of features available. It has a free version and a paid one. The biggest drawback of Wordpress is that its free version does not support monetization, which means you can’t make money by its free version.

Wordpress is the winner in the race of customization(tools and plugins) and features. If you want to make a blog with too many customizations I suggest you Wordpress. It works with hosted and non-hosted both the types of blogs.

It is a popular platform for team blogging, because it is very easy to setup multiple authors in the same account. It is non-hosted type of platform. Just like Typepad is also not free for use, you have to pay for the license, that is the biggest problem of this blogging platform. Its installation process is also not simple as others.
