I created a personal blog with blogger.com I've put about 4 hours worth of work into it...which I feel is not really bad, concerning doing 10 minutes here, 30 there. Well anyways, I receive a message from them that my blog was reported as spam.. how? From some type of robots they have. I will have to wait however many days before they decide on whether it's a spam blog... but who cares.. I'm going to move it.

Well anyway, there is no way that my blog is a spam.. its not even 30% finished yet.. like there is literally nothing but a few postings on there. The most I have done is design stuff...that's all. Well anyway, while trying to find the forum help section I ran across a guy who said that he sold some kind of services on his blog, it may have been web designs or something but anyway... his blog was totally deleted by Blogger.com because they said that his blog was spam. What was really sad about it was that he said that he was with WP for 2 years and decided to move everything over to blogger.com because he thought it was better... now its gone. Completly deleted.

I started doing this personal blog and considered moving my business web to a blog..but since I read his post and what happened to him, I do not even want to deal with Blogger.com. So my question is, what other blog companies are good? It doesn't matter if I have to pay.. I just want a good blog and I don't want someone to wipe out my blog.

Personally, I prefer WordPress. And to avoid having your blog deleted, you should just host it yourself. There are plenty of good, cheap hosts out there (JustHost, Host Gator, etc.) that even have one click installation available for WordPress. Plus, if it's a business website, it looks much more professional to have your own domain name rather than something like businessname.wordpress.com .

I agree with Susie. WordPress is the best choice in my opinion. I personally use JustHost for my hosting.
