Ask the DW/LJ Brain Trust
Okay, I've asked this in the past, but it's been a while and I'm working on a new (and exciting-to-me) blog project, so here goes:
DW? Wordpress? Typepad? Something else? (LJ is not an option.)
Considerations:
I think I want the thing on my own domain, which I've already secured, but I'm willing to be talked out of that idea.
I want to be able to choose either an ad-free blog or one on which I choose which ads are displayed. No automatic Google adbar, or anything like that.
More customizability is better, but since I'm really not a very good web programmer, it doesn't need to be down to the command line or anything. I'd love to be able to use custom CSS (I am pretty sure both Wordpress and Typepad offer that), and to view stats, but neither of those things is essential.
It doesn't have to be free; affordable is good, though.
Thoughts?
