Why My Plans to Move to Wordpress May Be Gone for Good

I wanted to create a WordPress site for my business and economics blog. I did think that WordPress might be good. However, I decided to finally delete it. Hopefully, I'll find a better blogging platform. For now, I think the big problems I've had with WordPress are as follows:

  1. Really hard to customize themes. Sure, there are a lot of cool-looking themes but newer themes don't even have a default search box. I want people to easily find what I have written!
  2. The WordPress editor is getting laggy. I really feel that WordPress may be doing a disservice more than a service for those who just want to blog in their free time.
  3. It's very difficult to apply labels across multiple posts, unlike Blogger. 
Then, I think this gives me a good reason as spelled out by Spell Out Marketing:
5. No Limitation On the Number of Visitors 
Even the expensive hosting plans come with space and bandwidth limitations. Those “unlimited” are never really unlimited.

When the number of your daily blog visitors crosses a threshold level, you will have to then upgrade to premium plans. If not, a high load on the server will result in downtime.

In a way, your success is also a curse, bringing more expense.

This isn’t the case with Blogger though. You can have thousands of thousands of daily visitors on your blog without experiencing any downtime. All this for FREE!

Pretty much, I just feel like WordPress hasn't been really ideal for me. Then again I'm some sort of wanting to save as much money as possible. I can still participate as a writer in somebody else's WordPress blog. However, using WordPress as default? Hmmm... I think I'm over with it!
