BloggerBuster Competition and Blogger Wishlist
BloggerBuster has announced a birthday celebration competition for blogspot bloggers. The purpose of this competition is to collect list of features or wishlist which will help encourage the Blogger team to work on developing the features and services which are most important to us!
The Blogger Team are constantly developing new features. While we could make use of the Blogger Wishlist to vote for the features we'd most like to use, amanda of BloggerBuster comes up one step ahead with competition for us.
The features or wishlist i would most like to be able to use in blogger( i think most of you would agree with me) are:
1.Comment Form beneath blog posts: In my blogging experience i have seen more comments on wordpress powered blog rather than blogger blog.It's because after each post,there is comment form which encourage readers to post comment.people don't like to post a comment which take on a separate page.The default blogspot comment form is not custom made template friendly.
2.Have more template options: The template provide by blogspot blog is old.now-a-days blogger like to use more custom made templates rather than default templates.Most third party templates provider are not aware of their user because they providing free templates.To have more templates options will give more flexibility on blogger blog which will ensure that we are safe.
3.Static pages on blogspot blog: The ability to create static pages that are not considered and treated as posts.Example like An about page,contact,privacy policy,disclaimer etc. With the ability to link to these pages on the header or footer. This will ensure that this will won't show up in feed reader and levels or archives.
4.125X125 Ad spot on Sidebar: Most of us like to monetize our blog.So having ready made 125x125 ad spot on sidebar will definitely help us to monetize blogspot blog.
5.Spam protection: We all hate spams.Personally i think all blogs should be nofollow tag free.However this means we can have more spams.So having spam protection like akismat(wordpress)will ensure that all the comments coming from real visitors or readers.
We are seeing that after few months using blogspot blog..blogger moving to wordpress which is more flexible. I like Google blogger and don't think to move to wordpress,it's beacuse i am familiar with html,css code.But newbie blogger always facing problem to customize their blog.
At last but not least,I really like that my posts show up in Google searches. It is that reason alone that has kept me from migrating to another blogging service and i hope blogger team will provide us much more features so we can enjoy this blogger platform.

Hello Kazi,
Thank you for your entry to the Blogger Wishlist competition :)
I've added your entry to the list of entrants and wish you the best of luck in next Friday's draw for the winners!
Just to let you know, Blogger have today added the comment form beneath posts which so many of us have wanted for our blogs! I've written a tutorial to help add this functionality to customized templates on Blogger Buster if you need to learn more.
Thank you and good luck!
