I started blog using blogspot and spend months convincing myself that I don't need the extra headache of domain name and figuring out how to get my site up. In the end, I just couldn't put up with the limitation, bought my domain name and hosting, suffered for about a week to manually redirect every post from my own site to the exact post in my new blog. I would prefer to manually redirect instead of using a software because you get to direct to the exact post instead of just your website. But I was sure glad I made the move. Yes, I totally agreed.
