Wordpress vs. Blogger

So far I have spent close to 30 days trying this Wordpress platform and am happy to report that I have more than 30 followers! Before starting Urban Prep, I was already familiar with the features since I had worked with Wordpress for a high school project. I did a lot of research regarding which platform to begin my new blog on and ultimately decided to stick with this host since it seemed more professional. However, I have grown dissillusioned with the lack of content. 
That isn't to say that there aren't thousands of posts each and every day from fellow bloggers, but that they aren't posts in my realm of interest. I know growth takes time, but I really need to think hard about what platform I want that growth to be on. I don't want to spend all this time creating new content if my viable audience uses Blogger. And it seems like everyone is using Blogger! So what should I do next?  For now, I have launched an additional Blogger site and am updating content on each.

As a forewarning, do not watch in an office cube or illicitly during a quiet study hall because you will be peeing your pants trying to stifle a laugh.  Seriously, you won't make it past Tyrannosaurous Rex or whale for that matter.

Disclaimer

I had a very difficult time coming up with a name for this blog.  I want Urban Prep to be a reflection of who I am and the kinds of things that I like and would confidently recommend to others.  For that reason, I gravitated toward a name that identified with my style, hence the "prep."  That being said, this blog will not fill your reader with pink and green, monograms, lace, and Lilly.

Rather, this blog will be grounded in class and iconic prep styles, while challenging those very norms by creatively incorporating and evolving with modern design and fashion.  I thought "urban" paired with "prep" solidified those goals well.

Introductions

Bear with me while I repeat much of what will be included on my {About Me} page at the top of my blog. I am a 19 year old college sophomore and DC native in the process of transferring from one university in Philadelphia to another back home in DC. I created Urban Prep as an outlet for sharing inspiring and creative fashion, design, art, photography, food, and travel. I hope that someday in the near future Urban Prep will become a hub for busy but creative and curious people who wish to stumble upon new ideas every day without pouring through dozens of blogs on their own time. Finally, I am always open to feedback and would love to hear from you. Thanks for reading.
