#3 NO PROPER DESIGN
Designing and customizing a blogger theme always a lengthy process. Not only because the whole code in single file but also because of long codes. In wordpress, all the code is in sections and you can customize as per your requirement.

When you write the content in WordPress you will shows the measurement of readability and SEO and tips to improve them, but in blogger, There is nothing called readability. In WordPress hosting, you can put your keyword and make the content targeting for the specific keyword.
