Blogger Available designs

Blogger allows its users to choose from various templates and then customize them. Users may also choose to create their own templates using CSS. The new design template, known as "Dynamic View", was introduced on 31 August 2011


 with Dynamic Views being introduced on 27 September 2011.


 It is built with AJAXHTML5, and CSS3


The time for loading is 40 percent shorter than traditional templates and allows the user to present blog in seven different ways: classic, flipcard, magazine, mosaic, sidebar, snapshot, and timeslide. Readers still have the option to choose preferable views when the blog owner has set a default view.


 Some of the widgets (e.g., Labels, Profile, Link List, Subscription Links, Followers and Blog Archive etc.) are available for Dynamic Views; other templates are chosen by the blogger.


In April 2013, Blogger updated its HTML template editor that has some improvements to make it easy for the users to edit the blog's source code. The editor was updated with syntax highlight, number line and jump-to-widget button for ease of editing the code.


For over half a year dynamic views users were suffering from a bug causing custom CSS and page navigation often not to load properly. This happened because a JavaScript routine rendered the page before it was loaded. A blogger user fixed the template and published the fix.



Integration
  • The Google Toolbar has a feature called "BlogThis!" which allows toolbar users with Blogger accounts to post links directly to their blogs.

  • "Blogger for Word" is an add-in for Microsoft Word which allows users to save a Microsoft Word document directly to a Blogger blog, as well as edit their posts both on- and offline. As of January 2007, Google says "Blogger for Word is not currently compatible with the new version of Blogger", and they state no decision has been made about supporting it with the new Blogger.

  • However, Microsoft Office 2007 adds native support for a variety of blogging systems, including Blogger.

  • Blogger supports Google's AdSense service as a way of generating revenue from running a blog.

  • Blogger also started integration with Amazon Associates in December 2009, as a service to generate revenue. It was not publicly announced, but by September 2011 it appeared that all integration options had been removed and that the partnership had ended.


  • Blogger can be optionally integrated with Google+.

  • Google+ comments can be integrated with blogger comments.

  • The Campaigns tab in Blogger dashboard links to Adwords making it easier to create ads.
Blogger on mobile devices

Blogger has launched mobile applications for users with mobile devices. Users can post and edit blogs, and also share photos and links on Blogger through their mobile devices. Not only advanced mobile devices, such as smartphones, are being considered since users can also post blogs via traditional cell phones by SMS and MMS

The major two mobile operating systems that Blogger focuses on are Android and iOS.


 Blogger allows users to edit blogs anywhere through the app and either publish the blogs or save them as drafts. Quick navigation from posts and drafts is accessible from a list. Users can attach photos by taking a picture with a Blogger app or selecting pictures from their photo galleries. Sharing current locations on posts is also possible by tabbing My Location bar and adding locations. Users can also share photos and links directly to Blogger.

Blogger also provides dynamic mobile views for the blogging compatibility with mobile devices and smartphones. They enhance the readability accuracy of these smart devices, but editing a blog on the blogger app remains an open issue for the users.

Blogger Limitations

Blogger has the following limitations on content storage and bandwidth, per user account:


  • Blog description – 500 characters max; HyperText Markup Language markup not supported
  • Number of blogs – 100 blogs per account
  • Number of labels – 5,000 unique labels per blog (an increase from the original 2,000), 20 unique labels per post (with at most 200 characters)

  • Number, of pictures – Ordinarily, up to 1 GB of total storage, shared with Picasa Web. If you've upgraded to Google+, your photos will be stored in Google Photos, where you have 15 GB of storage space shared with Gmail and Drive. However, if one has signed up for Google+ account, images less than 16 megapixels (4920 x 3264) would not be counted for this storage limit. For users not signed up for Google+, 800 x 800 pixels and below images would not be included in this storage space.

  • Number, of posts – There is no limit on the number of posts one can have on one blog. However, only 50 posts can be published per day before a user is required to go through a check process.

  • Account suspension: if a site is violating any terms of service, it may be suspended by Blogger without any notice. Repeated violations may lead to Google account suspension.

On February 18, 2010,


 Blogger introduced "auto-pagination", which limited the number of posts that could be displayed on each page, often causing the number of posts on the main page to be less than that specified by the user and leading to a hostile response from some users.



Private blogs are limited to only 100 members.

 Blogger Support

The official support channel is the Blogger Product Forum. 


This online discussion forum, delivered using Google Groups, serves Blogger users of varying experience and receives some monitoring from Google staff. 


"Top contributors" are community members nominated by the Google staff who enjoy additional privileges including managing discussions and direct access to Google staff. 


There is likely to be a top contributor or other knowledgeable person reading the forum almost all the time.


A number of people, including some top contributors, run personal blogs where they offer advice and post information about common problems.


StackExchange's Web Applications forum has a tag for "blogger", which is used for questions about various blogging platforms, including Blogger.
