Why TheoBloggers?

Besides the fact that we have a really cool company name, we think there are many reasons to choose TheoBloggers over other blog hosting sites. In fact, we felt strongly enough about these issues that we decided to invest our time and energy into developing a solution for other Christians to use. You’ll probably find some here with which you can resonate. Here’s our list of why we use (and you should use) TheoBloggers:

Ownership of information - Using most free blog sites means you agree to transfer ownership of your posts to that site. Forget the complications that come in when you want to republish something from your blog, what about the fact that they are free to use those cute pictures of your family any way they want? At TheoBloggers, you own the content because it is stored on our servers under your domain.

Image control - When you blog for another site, you are projecting their image onto your blog, and subsequently your family and your church. We’ll never forget the time that our "free" blog host linked our site to a profanity filled blog through its "just updated" feature. When you are communicating to friends, family, church members, and potential church members, the last thing you need to worry about it what else they may encounter. At TheoBloggers, we are committed to providing a Christian environment for spiritual communication.

Branding - Ever have trouble remembering the address to your blog when trying to share it with someone? Since your blog is hosted in a similar fashion to a web site, you select the address that your contacts reach you at (subject to availability, of course). No more strings of letters or numbers to remember, now it is simply www.yourname.com. Imagine how cool you’ll look the next time you’re at a conference and you can say, "Just look for me at www.myname.com".

Advanced features - With TheoBloggers, we’ll provide you with custom email addresses to go along with your blog. Forget n2god1994@yahoo.com, now you can have firstname@yourdomain.com, or whatever other address you’d like. Also, our WordPress software allows your visitors to sign up to recieve automatic updates through an RSS subscription. They can even subscribe to receive updates on your comments.

Powerful software - Thanks to the open source software WordPress, you’ll have amazing options to make your blog attractive and user friendly, even more so than with free blog sites. For an example, look at the difference in Randy’s before blog and his after blog. For those of you that already have blogs, WordPress has a built in transfer feature that takes only seconds to move your old blog to your new one.

Ultimate flexibility - Are you thinking that Blogger was tough enough to learn, much less all this new stuff? First off, rest assured that we are here to help the whole way. Second, you have the option of using all of our features (except the Word Press software) and publish your blog from your Blogger control panel. Sound interesting?
