Is hosting your website on Blogger still worth it in 2025?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been hosting my small fantasy story website on Blogger - xxxreads.blogspot.com and mainly because it’s free, simple, and I don’t have to deal with too much backend stuff. But I keep wondering if I’m holding myself back by sticking with it.

With all the fancy platforms out there like WordPress, Squarespace, and even some of these new AI-driven site builders, I’m starting to feel like Blogger might be... outdated? Or maybe I’m overthinking it, and it’s still a solid choice for someone who doesn’t need a lot of bells and whistles.

So, I’m curious and really have few genuine questions like:

- Is anyone here still using Blogger, or has everyone moved on to other platforms?
- If you’ve switched, was it worth the effort, or did you miss the simplicity of Blogger?
- And for those who stuck with it, do you have any tips for making the most of it?
- I’m not running anything huge—just a small audience of story readers—but I do wonder if a move could help me grow.

Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!
