Visitors: Anyone a blogger? - Or anyone maybe about to become one?

BLOGGING

I have been blogging more and more intensively over a few months since I started in the Spring of 2018. I knew near zero about blogging when I started, even though I'd had a few of my own websites. I am learning every day - particularly when I come up against restrictions. This happened recently when my videos were too large for Google (Blogspot) to authorise uploading. Obviously it is possible to edit videos down to smaller sizes manually and then repost/reupload. Despite this I find the video limitations irritating and creativity reducing. There are a number of other restrictions. I came across a new one today - if one has lengthy label titles (I do) one is limited to a max of 200 characters when adding labels to posts. In my earlier post today I wanted it to carry ALL labels - but that exceeded the 200 character thingy.

If you are a blogger like me or are thinking about becoming one ("Alan" - do please become one and send me a link) it might be useful if I copy some info from Wiki (I hope that is not a copyright infringement - I will remove it if it is - and give a link instead) for your and my - use:

Limitations

Blogger has the following limitations on content storage and bandwidth, per user account:^[32]

• Blog description – 500 characters max; Hyper Text Markup Language markup not supported
• Number of blogs – 100 blogs per account
• Number of labels – 5,000 unique labels per blog (an increase from the original 2,000), 20 unique labels per post (with at most 200 characters)
• Number of pictures – Ordinarily, up to 1 GB of total storage, shared with Picasa Web. If you've upgraded to Google+, your photos will be stored in Google Photos, where you have 15 GB of storage space shared with Gmail and Drive. However, if one has signed up for Google+ account, images less than 16 megapixels (4920 x 3264)^[33] would not be counted to this storage limit. For users not signed up for Google+, 800 x 800 pixels and below images would not be included in this storage space.
• Number of posts – There is no limit on the number of posts one can have in one blog. However, only 50 posts can be published per day before a user is required to go through a check process.^{[citation needed]}
• Size of pages – Individual pages (the main page of a blog or archive pages) are limited to 1 MB
• Size of pictures – If posted via Blogger Mobile, limited 250 KB per picture;^[34] posted pictures are scaled to 1600px^{[citation needed]}

• Number of pages – There is no limit on the number of pages you can have on one blog
