Wordpress or Blogger: Which do you prefer?

I've posted a Wordpress blog at http://www.constructionmarketingideas.com. For now,the new blog will be a holding spot for an upcoming article in the SMPS Marketer. The question: Should this blog migrate to the new site?

After a few nights work, I have successfully uploaded and implemented a Wordpress blog at the Constructionmarketingideas.com domain.

For now, the new blog is a holding site -- an upcoming article in the SMPS Marketer references the domain for a simple readership survey.

The process of setting up the blog, while simple in that you don't need to be a computer guru to do it, is most definitely harder than Blogger. You need to know some basics of uploading, FTP, and have access to your server's core functions -- skills I'm confident most readers here lack (and don't need for their regular work.)

Things are helped along by pre-developed templates and widgets. I'm sure, that once I learn the style and format of Wordpress, it won't be much harder to maintain than Blogger.

In my reading, I've learned it is hard to move from Blogger to Wordpress -- you can't simply transfer all the files and think everything will be fine. So I'll be faced, I suspect, with a choice if I decide to make the move: To do what I can to transfer 2.5 years of files, or simply leave the old blog intact on Blogger and begin adding new entries exclusively on the Wordpress site.
