Do I need to move from Ameblo to WordPress?

Ameba Blog or WordPress

Hi, I'm Takeo Fujii. Ameblo is popular for its effectiveness in attracting customers. Both are popular.

However, if you do a search, you will find that many articles refer to WordPress as "beating Ameblo".

  • Ameblo is not beneficial in the long run.
  • WordPress is too good for SEO.
  • Ameblo is for amateurs.

It even contains information that makes you want to ask, "Whoa... is that true? I've run both Ameblo and WordPress myself. I myself have been using both Ameblo and WordPress. I've been using Ameblo since I was in junior high school.

So, in this article, I will explain the difference between Ameblo and WordPress. I'll be comparing the features and usability.

Why is WordPress recommended?

Why WordPress is more popular than Ameblo

First of all, let me tell you my position: "If you are doing well in attracting customers to Ameblo, there is no need to force yourself to use WordPress. You can just move when it stops working well.

By the way, I am a WordPress enthusiast who has been using it every day since 2013. That's me, but from a marketing point of view."If it's working, why not?"This is the idea.

There are many women entrepreneurs who use Ameblo for business purposes. One of my business partners is one of them.

When I asked these women why they moved from Ameblo to WordPress.

"Because the famous Mr. 00 said that attracting customers on Ameblo is a wasteland.
You said WordPress would attract more visitors."

Most of the time, the answer will be something like this. ...Well, yeah. You're right.

Indeed, there are many advantages to using WordPress. Let's check out the benefits first.

Benefits/advantages of WordPress

The following are some of the benefits of WordPress that have been mentioned online.

Where WordPress excels over Ameba Blog
  • Strong SEO
  • The ability to attract web visitors is more than just Ameblo.
  • Highly customizable
  • Well-designed and can be used for self-branding
  • More likely to be seen as an expert.
  • No ads are displayed.

These are the facts. In fact, the ability of WordPress to attract customers will increase.

When it comes to SEO, there are more settings that can be set for WordPress than for Ameblo. For this reason, WordPress is said to have stronger SEO than Ameblo.

WordPress is also more customizable. You can even create membership sites and e-commerce sites with WordPress.

As you can see, the functionality of WordPress is indeed excellent.

Because of these online whispers about WordPress, and because of the stories I've heard from women entrepreneurs I know.I'm going to move from Ameblo to WordPress.Many entrepreneurs seem to think that

However, surprisingly, many people make the mistake of moving from Ameblo.

Migrating from Ameblo to WordPress and Failing

However, the Ameblo audience was more likely to generate sales.Sales have dropped since I moved to WordPress.I frequently receive such comments.

Many people on the Internet say "WordPress over Ameblo", but there are quite a few female entrepreneurs who are going back to Ameblo from WordPress.

The reason is.WordPress blogs don't have the ability to attract visitors from the start.This is it, isn't it?

WordPress is certainly a strong SEO tool. There are many parts that can be customized, and it is definitely a powerful way to attract customers in the long run (one or two years).

However, it will take some time before WordPress's ability to attract customers actually starts to take effect. The reason for this is that a newly launched WordPress blog has basically no ability to attract customers. It takes time for it to be indexed by the search engines.

There are many entrepreneurs who start WordPress but fail to get access. This is exactly the reason why many entrepreneurs fail.

Benefits/advantages of Ameblo

Why move from Ameblo to WordPress and fail?

It has to do with the unique advantages of Ameblo. Here are some of the advantages of using Ameblo.

The key to beating ameba blog and WordPress
  • Ameblo is free.
  • Simple, no complicated settings required
  • Easy to submit articles
  • There is a social networking element within Ameblo.
  • You can get access from the beginning.

First of all, WordPress is expensive. It costs about 1,000 yen per month. Ameblo is free. In return, Ameblo will automatically display ads.

Also, WordPress is easy to customize, but on the other hand, it feels complicated when you are not used to it.

After all, Ameblo doesn't require any special settings for SEO, and it also has SNS functions. It's simple to use.

Why Ameblo is so powerful in attracting customers

Especially on Ameblo, since its launch.It's a strong draw."If you open a blog and write articles, you will get traffic rather quickly. If you open a blog and write an article, you will get access to it rather quickly.

Even if you set up a blog on WordPress and write one article, you won't get access to it from the beginning. This is the difference between Ameblo and WordPress in terms of attracting visitors at the blogging stage.

With the "peta" footprint function, "favorite" function, and ranking, you can expect visitors from within Ameblo just by writing an article.

This feature is really strong. It is the reason for Ameblo's ability to attract customers.

You don't have to move from Ameblo to WordPress.

Conclusion.If you're doing well using Ameblo to attract customers, there's no need to move to WordPress.It is.

You don't need to get your own domain name and set up a blog with WordPress.

Ameblo used to be banned for commercial use, but the ban was lifted in 2018. Therefore, if you write an article for commercial purposes on Ameblo, it will not be deleted. As long as the article is not too offensive...

It's also true that WordPress is ultimately more effective for SEO, and it's also true that it's much more effective to get your own domain name and run it on WordPress for self-branding.

However, marketers consider that "both Ameblo and WordPress are one way to attract customers. In other words.It's all about the numbers.If you are using WordPress and it's bad for your business, it's smart to choose Ameblo. If it is obvious that using WordPress will have a negative impact on your business, it is wise to choose Ameblo to attract customers. In the early stages of a company, it doesn't matter what you do.

the point isAmeblo and WordPress are just two of the ways to attract customers.

Even though Ameblo will place ads on its own, it's wise to use Ameblo if you're only getting lackluster results with WordPress.

Why use WordPress instead of Ameblo?

I would like to say to women entrepreneurs who are wondering whether to move from Ameblo to WordPress.

If you're a small business that's still making a few hundred to tens of thousands of yen a month, Ameblo is fine.

When to move from Ameblo to WordPress
  1. Enter the market as a full-fledged business -> Long-term perspective
  2. To provide a more professional business -> To avoid being seen as a free blog
  3. I'm making enough to eat.

If you move to WordPress at this stage, there will be no problem. At this stage, even if Ameblo closes down, your sales will be manageable thanks to your repeat customers.

In other words, you can use WordPress when you start to see a ceiling on the efficacy of Ameblo.

I think Mr. Fujii is certainly right when he thinks of Ameblo or WordPress. I am also currently in a situation where I am trying to decide if it is wordpress or X. But that is not the problem with the current site, ** is hacking my computer, and the original is being done to me. I didn't do anything wrong, but the site was deleted from my computer here, and I can't upload it after that. I know the cause of the problem, but I am very busy and cannot do as much as I would like. I agree with Mr. Fujii's opinion. The bottom line is that the site is effective, and the reality should improve and progress.... I am grateful to hear an expert's opinion. Thank you very much.
