Yes, WordPress is definitely going to make your life easier.<br/><br/>Never really took to Helium. I mean, I tried submitting some articles, got a couple of cents out of it, but never really understood how to make it profitable. I know some people have been successful, but I imagine they're ones with more time on their hands. Hi Forest, nicely done! Yes, WordPress is definitely going to make your life easier.

I'll tell you why I switched. Don't get me wrong I think Blogger is great, however, WordPress is a much more powerful platform and allows for more customization. There's also many "plug-ins" available that provide you with great tools to optimize your blog. Since you wanted to know why people use WordPress. I’ll tell you why I switched.

I've made less than $5 with Helium and AC combined. Adsense made $2.84 after 3 months of daily blogging! But I live in hope... I have a 5 year old successful website that earns anywhere between $200 - $300 each month in adsense - so I know it can be done. But I am new to blogging and it's a different world altogether.
