While Six Apart still produces other
advanced blogging platforms, TypePad is marketed as the hosted option for professional
bloggers, as it allows for deep customization and advanced features not present in the
other options.
TypePad??™s subscription-based model sets it apart from Blogger and WordPress.com.
TypePad is not free to use. In fact, there are four levels to choose from??”Basic, Plus, Pro,
and Business Class, with prices ranging from a few dollars a month to well over a hundred
dollars a month. Six Apart touts the latter as the ???only enterprise-grade hosted blogging
service,??? and they??™re probably right. The Pro and Business Class levels approach the functionality
of custom-installed blogging software??”domain mapping, multiple author levels,
full template control, and more??”but without the maintenance headaches. In addition, the
paid service allows you to get under the hood and tinker with both the functionality and
presentation.
TypePad is the clear choice for companies who take their blogging seriously, and who want
the raft of advanced features without the need for software installed on their own servers.
